It all started with exuberant amounts of meat lying around. No one knew what to do with it. It was the lesser of all the products. The shavings left over after the prime meat was processed, packaged, and shipped. So, in an effort to make use of this waste spam was born. If you thought hot dogs were a hybrid meat then you are sadly mistaken. Spam is a mix of anything and everything in any remote sense meat related. If you don't believe me just learn about spam at Spam History.
So, why did I bother rambling about spam? Well, I believe it is a good parallel to what my blog will be like. I decided to write it because I have many opinions on topics in the world, in every day life, etc. etc. I used to think Facebook was the answer, but I have been enlightened. I had epiphany that told me I should make a blog where I can say what I want to say, and if people want to read it then all the better for them!
Guidelines for the blog:
#1: I am a "Mormon" as most people know us. A member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. This will be expressed often as it is a part of my every day life and I am a strong believer. So, if you don't like us then... well you'll find out someday. If you're curious, wonderful! This is a great link with more information about us Mormon Values. If you like what you see let me know! I would love to answer any questions you might have.
#2: Because I am a Mormon I have according values. If you're looking for inappropriate content then go somewhere else. If you're going to post inappropriate content go somewhere else. If you want to understand what all my values are, click here.
#3: I made this blog for the sheer fact that I am opinionated. I won't deny it. I have my own opinions and I have a hard time keeping them to myself. That's kind of why I made this blog.... If you disagree with my opinions that's fine. If everyone agreed with me there would be no fun in anything (dictatorship much?). So, go ahead and tell me what you think.
#4: Sometimes I might post things that I think are funny, interesting or important to me. It's a way of expressing myself and my opinions on the media of the internet.
#5: If you have criticism for me then gimme some. Does my background suck? templates? etc.? Go ahead and tell me. I'll take your comments for what it's worth. I'm new to blogging so don't expect my blog to be perfect in any way.
#6: I am OCD about my grammar and spelling, so be warned...
#7: Enjoy the blog! I didn't write it to be a a boring textbook of some sort. I wrote it so that people can learn more about me and in turn express about themselves. Please comment and if you have your own blogs go ahead and show me! I might just follow it and I might not. No promises (if I know you in real life I will more than likely stalk you from your blog).
So, there you have it. I caved and started a blog. Hope you enjoy my "Profound Spam".

First of all, I think you are a much more amusing writer, at least with this type of writing,than I am. Second of all, did my blog have any role in your epiphany? Lastly, yes I think your background sucks. :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, part of my "epiphany" was your blog, but it was also when I realized I had so many things I wanted to spam my opinion on and I had no medium for it other than facebook. I felt like I was spamming facebook so I looked at your blog, then looked at facebook and I thought, "Whoa! I can just spam crap from my brain on to my blog!" Yeah, the background is relatively uninteresting but so is yours so it's okay.
ReplyDeleteSadly my background is more beautiful than either of yours.
ReplyDeleteJonathon, I find myself looking forward to watching this always. It will only be marginally awkward :D
Okay, I gotta admit that is an awesome, and fitting background. It fits you, especially since your pic is with you in your hoop dancing outfit.
ReplyDeleteI just hope you never forget to stalk me.
