68th post
I feel right now much the same way as I did ten months ago, writing my first post in the Blog of Ultimate Randomness, knowing the contents of what I wanted to say but not quite sure just how to put them in words.
As I said at the beginning, I planned to post here random wackiness whenever life got too much to handle to get some weight off my chest. As evidenced my my initial seventeen-posts-in-one-month spree, life back then was pretty heavy. But now... Whoa! Hey! No no no, it's not like that at all. I am not, repeat, not shutting down this blog! (Breath easier now.) I will, however, sadly tone down the level of randomness here. No more sentences about marching weasels, cutting lights, or how to improve the taste of caramel. Thus, while the subjects I choose to talk about will be randomly chosen, their contents for the most part will not be.
So, now that that's done, I am as much at a loss as to finding an ending as I was with an opening (notice how easily I dodged that particular bullet?). Perhaps it is only fitting that I conclude this dramatic change in bloggage policy (yes, even more dramatic than this and this) with a random cry of WAKKA WAKKA!

1st post
Hmm... so, it's that easy to create a blog, eh? Well, well, well.
Welcome, everybody reading this, to the Blog of Randomness. When life gets too much to handle, I'll just pop in here and do something random to get that weight off my chest.

WHO WON WORLD WAR II?
(This is going to be a regular feauture with nonsensical answers.)
TODAY'S ANSWER: Howdy Doody.
TODAY'S WEBSITE: www.faniq.com If you're a fan of some sort of sport, this site is a definite must for you. Answer prediction polls to gain IQ points (or just express your opinion), create your own polls, and collect various awards. The site is currently in its Beta V2 version, which I find to be less helpful than the old one, but what the heck.
