Back from the beyond

Post – December 18, 2001

After I wrote the previous post about Winona Ryder, I thought to myself, “Well, we’re certainly ‘back to normal’ here at words mean things.” How many bloggers had the initial reaction, after 9/11, that the things they were writing about “just didn’t matter anymore”? That blogging seemed pointless and self-indulgent? Well, I for one am glad to be posting something about Winona Ryder’s shoplifting. Not that I think stuff like Tom Green and Drew Barrymore’s divorce is the be-all end-all, but then again, I didn’t think so “before” either. I happen to find pop culture interesting and fun, and that’s what this site is about.

Blogging is life, whatever you write about, and that’s something to hold on to, no matter what happens. When we stop expressing ourselves, we might as well be dead.

    If you can’t blog about whether Tom Cruise is really gay, then the terrorists win.
