Bloggers are breeding like wildfire. Here is a lesson in how to spot one.
Bloggers are everywhere. You will see them on the street looking for inspiration. You will find them in cafes observing non bloggers going about their everyday business. You will find them at the far ends of the world searching out an Internet cafe or wireless network so that they can exist.
But how can you tell a blogger as opposed to a non blogger. Well my first pointer would be to look at their eyes do they have that tell tale syndrome BRES (blogger red eye syndrome) . This is a result of many hours in front of their computer screen staring into the oblivion that is the Internet. If you want to protect the blogger species and you spot one in a cafe, hand him your used tea bag. Yes your tea bag, when placed over a bloggers eyes it has a soothing calming effect on their tired blogger eyes. He or she will thank you for it.
The other thing to look for is the constant tapping of fingers. You can spot the one fingered blogger by the way he or she taps their digit finger incessantly. The more advanced blogger will tap all fingers of course. Offer them a neck rub or a head massage. This will stop their incessant fidgeting and create peace and harmony until they once again are reunited with their lap top.
Most bloggers are first generation bloggers who are now breeding little bloggers. They are breeding a whole new generation of red eyed, tapping opinionators and the world is a better place because of them. Although they might not be the most vocal species they roar on the world wide web. They are the new informers, educators and philosophers of the modern world. If you want to get a feel for a political situation or the reality of living in a war zone, or just to find out how to get stains out of a shirt. There will be a blog out there somewhere.
Long live blogging and bloggers. Oh and have you noticed that the more you say blogger blogger blogger how silly it sounds. I just thought i would add that.

I’m not sure how much use one tea bag would be, but it’s a start. Maybe what bloggers really nedd is some form of virtual birth control. Family planning, at the very least, to limit the addicted proliferation of blogs. How many do you have, by the way? I’ve cut back to one, but one more and possibly two are coming up in the near future.
