Pop Culture Gadabout | ||
Sunday, March 01, 2009 ( 3/01/2009 07:09:00 AM ) Bill S. IN MY OWN SPECIAL WAY: Today's the Gadabout's anniversary: seven years ago, back in Illinois, this blogger was posting his Responsibility Ducking Intro. Looking back at this blog's first posts, I see a short appreciative piece on Joey Ramone's solo swan song, a consideration of controversial former Marvel editor Jim Shooter, an opening look at the final episodes of The X-Files, followed by some words about the second season opener of Six Feet Under, and the dissection of a pop culture ref from Buffy, the Vampire Slayer. Not much different from what I've been writing today, though life's demands have kept me from being as fecund as I once was. (Don't see that situation changing any time soon.) I'm still playing that Joey R. disc in regular rotation, incidentally: when I'm particularly feeling life's brickbats, I've found it's one of the few pieces of music that'll keep me going. So here's to another year of bloggin' . . . (Oh, and a happy belated ninth blogiversary to the redoubtable neilalien!) # | |
