Musings of a Tiny Speck in the Universe

The beauty of the blog is that we can elevate the mediocre and the banal up to the level of seeming importance. In ancient history, when paper was scarce and writing is a precious skill, putting an event down on to paper usually means the event was very significant. I think there is definitely that element of using blogging to attach more significance to our petty lives than is otherwise warranted.

I think blogging also allows one to fulloy develop and exploit their b.s. potential.
