P.U. Blog of the Week: August 16-22, 2005

This week's blog is Carrie's Online Journal. I was referred to this blog by a link from Steve's Blog, figuring that the blogs he visited might also be of interest to me. That proved to be the case, at least in this instance.

Carrie is very near my age and is candid when she states that she attracts drama and is highly sarcastic, like me. Her "rants" -- which range from a story of an underage pregnant girl drinking wine and driving home once she was "caught" to a story of Carrie's engagement (ultimately broken) and the perverse party planning that resulted -- are extremely insightful and speak to me as a contemporary who is trying to contemplate the world around me. Her comments on Steve's Blog are insightful too. Furthermore, it never hurts to look at things from the perspective of contemporaries belonging to the opposite sex.

Be advised that to comment on this blog, you must have a "Microsoft .NET Passport," but I think you can simply browse it without such an indignity. As we all know, Microsoft has an Orwellian desire to know where we go and what we do on the Internet in order to make its products more "relevant" to the consumer. I don't blame Carrie for ths invasion of our privacy, I only blame Microsoft.

Take a look at this blog and embrace the smart-ass response I offer: No, Carrie, tell us what you really think! Frankly, though, this blog is excellent. You go, girl!
