15 Things I Learned During Blogathon 2007

Just 30 minutes left of the 24-hour Blogathon event! The world outside is waking up again, and I'm getting ready to crash land into my bed. I did this last year, and I thought it was a fun idea, so I will impart with you fifteen things I learned over the last 24 hours.

What has Blogathon 2007 taught me?

  1. An obvious winner is spelled "shoo-in", not "shoe-in". Go figure.
  2. Believe it or not, people will voluntarily play Wesley Willis music if you ask them to.
  3. Cats may meow, but falcons chant.
  4. Domo-Kun lives in the wild.
  5. During the 23rd hour, don't fully recline your chair and close your eyes and expect that good things will result.
  6. Even with no sleep for over 18 hours, I still can't understand that dancing kittycat video.
  7. In the original script of The Smurfs, Gargamel captured a smurf wandering alone in the forest and (using "magic clay") he transformed the male smurf into Smurfette.
  8. I've been collecting a personal diary without even knowing it.
  9. John O'Hurley, who played J. Peterman in Seinfeld, later helped the real J. Peterman to purchase the "J. Peterman" brand back from a company he had sold it to.
  10. LOLCATS are evil!!!
  11. Luka's webcam can't see the pool in the day and it can't see the moon in the night.
  12. Marbles, though fun, can be excruciatingly annoying.
  13. Somehow, Professor X is closely related to Blogathon.
  14. Technology can make or break some low-income families.

I hope you learned something as well!

    One thing that I learned during Blogathon – that the clever, silly, insightful youngster, I once knew, is still running wild and free inside the "responsible" adult. Congratulations my friend.

    Yeah, it's very uncomfortable when he's running all over the place inside me. Especially when he falls on my spleen.
