I totally spaced it

So a few years ago I Set up this blog. It was used mainly to send pictures and information to family that have moved away. At that time Facebook was still something new (hard to believe that within 2 years facebook grew to the size it is).

So anyway........

I totally forgot that I somehow linked my blog with facebook. So whenever I type something on my blog, it will go as a note on my facebook. Not a bad thing, just not getting any adsense revenue from people not visiting the blog (that would be 10s of people!).

But I like my little tidbits of useless data going to people I know on facebook. Seeing that I'm such an introverted person, I guess this is the only way I get to communicate effectively. Writing also keeps my mind sharp.

If only I could write like Kurt Vonnegut! BTW download his last book on Itunes
-2BRO2B. He always had a unique way at looking at human nature.

So anyhoooo....... Here's the bog address www.djplouffe.blogspot.com

I would love to get some feedback and also get with some of my submariner buddies to perhaps build another blog. I think we need a submarine blog and I would also love to do a Rhode Island music scene blog.

Any ideas?

Stuff

I guess the question can may be asked about why did I set up this blog? there really is a couple of reasons:

1. I can easily post pictures and happenings to send to family members throughout the world.
2. Since I do college through distance learning, many times I have to submit bios and writing examples. Using a blog, I can refer my professors to this blog and they'll know a little more about me.
3. I miss my family members that are spread everywhere, I guess through writing I feel closer.
4. Expressing myself in writing helps to maintain my sanity.

I hope that some people will regularly refer to this blog and send it to people that would be interested.
