_ **AND THAT’S AN ORDER, PRIVATE PYLE!** _ Sorry…um, anyway. I decided to get myself a blog tonight but got struck down with writers block when it asked me to name it. I want to call my blog something funny, or cool, or witty, or clever, or something, but I’m just having a fuggy, no ideas day. I know it doesn’t matter for shit, but can anyone suggest some cool ideas for blog titles? ---

it kind of depends on why you’re blogging are you commenting on the state of the government? posting random observations of the human condition? presenting your personal diary for all to see? when I blogged my joint replacement surgery, I called it “A Hip Diary”, naturally folks thought I was going for the “cool/hip/happenin’” angle when I had WLS, i titled my blog “Follow The Band or In The Lap Of Luxury” one just came to mind “Let George Do It” (a reference back to Laugh In) ---

Always wanted a blog but my life is too boring for one. What the hell would I write about?? Good luck. Inky ---

And its better off that you don’t make a quickie choice , as if you ever get unstuck from writers fugue, the name becomes your brand that gets linked to. Worst comes to worst , type band name in the search box for the dope and see if something grabs your attention. Declan ---

I think you should call it “Which way did he go?” a la “Which way did he go, George, which way did he go?” from various looney tunes cartoons. 🙂
