Day 2 – It Bloggles the Mind


Exploration Logbook Entry #1

I leave this record for future generations who find themselves lost on the internet, surrounded by its mountain-high walls of pornography and valleys of creepier pornography.

It has been 24 hours or so now since I found myself trapped in the blogosphere.  Time is funny here so I may not be entirely accurate on that number.  I have witnessed the temporal focus of this, for lack of better word, place accomplish strange feats, including reverse esrever gnidulcni ,staef feats, including reverse, repeat, and even flash forward.  Keeping track of it all using so I just decided up and give up it all was just so confusing so I just decided to give up and keep typing.  If you should find any strange errors in this blog, just chalk it up to oddities located in the time stream.

During the time or the lack of time that I have been here (as I have stated, or will state, the temporal schematics here are, were, and will be confusing) I have attempted to retrace my steps in order that I may find my way out of this place.  So far, I have had no luck.  Once one enters the internet, it is a very difficult place to then exit.

It has come to my attention through interaction with some local bloggers that the blogosphere is meant to accomplish some higher, unseen, and highly convoluted purpose.  This purpose, of which the bloggers themselves appear to be completely ignorant of, is meant to permeate the internet and reach out to the world outside, the world of the users, my world.  If I could find purpose in my blog, perhaps I too could reach out to users and escape this world-wide web.

Ah, screw it.  I'll just write whatever comes to mind and to hell with the users.  This is a blog about nothing, and sometimes my cat.  Or is it?

Day 1 - Trapped in the Blogosphere.

Experiment #42

All previous attempts to interact meaningfully with the internet have met with little success.  Unfortunately, due to an unfortunate accident that unfortuitously has left me using the word unfortunate a lot, I have lost Experiments #s 1-41 in an unfortunate tragic accident involving a time machine and a toaster.  My apologies to the 17th century.  However, enjoy your hot, toasty sandwiches should you ever stop fighting over the Americas long enough to invent electricity or sandwiches.
(Note to self: 17th Century also lacking in copious amounts of internet.)

So why am I here?  That, my friends, is a question best left up to gods and philosophers.  And being that God is dead and philosophers are soon to follow, I think I'll skip that one entirely and just get right down to brass tacks and explain why I am not here.  There, wasn't that simple?

As I was saying, Experiment #42... Experiment #42... ah, yes!  I have opened a blog.  An unfortu... unfor... unforeseen consequence to this action has been that I find myself currently trapped in the latest section of the ever expanding, all-encompassing, not truly existing, but ever-present-in-our-lives monster that is known as cyberspace.  That section, located far above the Facebook Empire that rests over the long forgotten realms of Myspace and Geocities, is the mighty blogosphere.

How did I get here?  That too is a very good question, and one I truly wish I had an answer for.  Experiment #42 ultimately did not leave much time for answers.  Only questions.  Ultimate questions.  The ultimate answers seem to already have been answered.

In conclusion, I welcome you, my friends, to join me, as I try to make sense of my new surroundings, escape the vile obscenity that holds firm over this landscape, right what once went wrong, and hope that each time, my next leap will be the leap home.
