mindless drivel
This blog was submitted in the humor category, and after skimming a few posts I can see why. This blogger has the ability to write about daily occurences in his life and transform them into comical events.
'Mindless Drivel' is brought to us by 'a guy in Texas with too much free time on his hands.' This is a relatively recent blog with entries dating back only to October 2004. He chronicles things that happen as he goes about his life, updates often and his posts are insightful, detailed and of course, funny. Recent posts include his thoughts about how people from Texas act at Starbucks when it gets cold, his commute to work where he always seems to get stuck behind bad drivers who always seem to drive Toyota Camries, and one of my favorites, how squirrels enjoy "seeing us freak out and slam on our brakes, taking out mailboxes, flowerbeds, and pedestrians in a desperate attempt to spare the life of a suicidal rodent."
The best thing about this blog was by far the entries. They really are entertaining to read, not too long and not too short. One thing I would have liked to see was more about the author in the 'about' section. He does give us the basics, i.e. age and gender, but it's always good to find out a little about the person behind the writing.
This blogger uses blogger and blogspot, and he has added a nice design to a two column layout. In one column he has his blog and the other column has navigation, a poll, archives and links He uses creative headings for these categories such as "oldies but goodies" instead of archives and "blogs that are better than mine" instead of links.
Overall, I absolutely loved this blog. Did I mention he was a finalist in the 'Best of the Rest Blogs' in the 2004 Weblog Awards and it's obvious why. His refreshinginly humorous writing style makes this a bookmark worthy blog.
