Perpetual Thursday Ramblings, Rantings, Nonsense, and Bunk

A Birthday for Blogger
Wednesday, August 23, 2006

Yes, the post title is meant to sound like a children's books title. I like it. Anywho, as you may know, today marks Blogger's 7th birthday, and I though that I, being a Blogger user, might as well make note of it. You've probably noticed the big white dog with a birthday hat next to this post. The dog has currently replaced the B in Blogger's logo to celebrate their birthday (7 human years = 1 dog year). Now I'm not sure about anyone else, but I think it looks a little like an iPod ad. That's why I couldn't help making my own version of it.

I know, I know. Its really stupid and somewhat  poorly executed, but as I said, I couldn't help it.

In other notes for today: if you've been to PT before you'll probably notice the changes to the design and sidebar layout. The box around the logo and the subtitle are both gone. The standard Blogger profile has been replaced with an "About Perpetual Thursday" section and a shorter profile of myself. Lastly, the "Previous Posts" section has been moved above the "Links" section, because I want you to stay and read my junk before going off and reading someone else's.

To wrap up this post, I'd like to wish Blogger one more "Happy Birthday" with the Camp Maumee Happy Birthday Song (which I've probably got wrong):

Happy birthday, oh, happy birthday,
Death, destruction, and despair,
People dying everywhere,
Happy birthday, oh, happy birthday.
One step closer to the grave,
Think of all the food you'll save,
Happy birthday, oh, happy birthday.

Heh, that "ad" is amusing. Good job.

You HAVE to teach us the tune to that song. I don't know how I lived this long without knowing it.

Emily, I'm going to kill you.

I open up my blog and my first reaction is:
"HOLY MOLEY! I HAVE 6 COMMENTS!"

Then I see... 5 are from you.

Ok, so I won't kill you, but you shouldn't have done that. You had me all jittery.

*Snigger,snigger*

*teeheehee*

Why did you think I commented so many times, puddin'head? I imagined what would happen to ME if you did that, and the reaction was so good I knew I just had to.

It worked.

I feel good.

(You are more than that amazing. Come on, who do you think I was talking about? Theresa L.?)
