The Living Blog Blob

I think it would be interesting if I was somebody else and stumbled upon a blog entry of mine within a few minutes after it first appeared.

I normally first do my text in MS Word which will catch most my misspells and some of my grammar errors – but as much as I shove to it at one time it can’t catch everything.

And I am my own worse proof reader while using the same format (Word).

However, when I look at my entry after it first hits the blog site I see some of my errors instantly for the first time. I looked at the text in a different state of mind, I suppose. I quickly go back to the dashboard and correct what I spotted. Then, I go back and continue and maybe see another error and again go back.

Sometimes I see something is missing go I add a paragraph to explain something. Then again, I may see that I explained something in the ground and go back and delete it.

The other day I was reading a blog and a new entry materialized instantly before me.

So, I suppose it is possible for someone to be reading my blog during my correction-jam session with myself. He or she might see words change its spelling to give an entirely different meaning, it might suddenly shorten itself when a paragraph disappears, and bloat up with the addition to an even longer paragraph…. “Gads! It is like an amoeba feeling around for something to eat!” they might think.

The above is by Wallace Wood in MAD comic #1.

I have had that happen, Eddie. I was reading a blog and all of a sudden, a new photo appeared at the top, but no text. I went back later, and the text was there.

Judy,
Probably mine.
The entry we are commenting on now I made three adjustments to it since I sent it on-line.
