Zidaned!

I've noticed that a number of people whom I know, apparently unbeknownst each other and simultaneously, have begun their own blogs. Many of these seem to involve travelling about exciting places in southern and central Europe, or failing that, Idaho. Then there is of course Exquisite Vanity, which describes the travails of travelling through the vale of tears that is Suburbia (which is not as good as Europe, though closer than Idaho).

What impresses me about this blogular proliferation (which, much like nuclear proliferation, is highly unwelcome for those already in the club) is that so many of the people blogging from Festung Europa manage to make that magical continent sound about as exciting as buying a new toaster oven. I'm well aware that I make my own life seem much more tedious than even shopping for small appliances, but Canadia is supposed to be boring.


Come on people! Can't you get yourselves headbutted in the sternum or something? At least that would be new and different!
