Great idea: Samuel Pepys's diaries as a weblog

http://www.pepysdiary.com/

Updated daily, as far as I can tell.

Here’s a news item about it.

I’m a little saddened that it’s the expurgated version. I wanted all the salacious details about his defecatory and masturbatory habits, and groping the maid…

“Up, betimes, and did peruse ye Strayt Doppe. As ever, ye hammpsters did bedevil my purpose. Sported with Jane the maid, and did tocar su besas.”

At last, an online journal I can read without fear of the diarist posting many results in “What Kind Of ______ Are You?” quizzes.

Amen to that! Dude fornicated like a sexually addicted rabbit.
