Death of the Author and Other Thoughts of the Month

Today, whilst I was in Metro, reading Roland Barthes, it hit me. I had nearly forgotten the Fox. Well, not forgotten, but I had felt way too busy lately and everything had seemed so much more important than the blog. I wish I could have said I really had been that busy, but obviously I couldn't. You, who are on Facebook, you know that I could have written much and much and even some more and spent far less time on writing something more important than my status updates:

OPC is now wondering if Human Frogger exists. 12:09am

OPC is thinking he shouldn't be at all surprised that it does. Of course it does. Or there'd be no need for the Darwin Awards. 12:17am

Dave is just glad to check on his Facebook page occasionally, and note that the Fox is still obviously alive, even though he misses reading a fresh entry on her blog.

Marsha is still wondering what Facebook is for.

Yes, BiB, you're absolutely right. Facebook is pants, almost as big as mine.
