How NOT to get a blog post written

Or, "How to NOT get a blog post written":

1. Come home.
2. Eat dinner.
3. Call friends.
4. Go online and check half a dozen blogs.
5. Leave comments on several of them.
6. Watch John Stewart.
7. Watch Stephen Colbert.
8. Watch Carlos Mencia and realize that he's actually pretty funny.

Several of the blog posts I've read today are intensely personal. But here's one I'd like to share: Gareth's Another Chance to See has a post about an article in the current issue of New Scientist written by Mark Carwardine , Douglas Adam's partner in the Last Chance to See expeditions, about the extinction of the Baiji dolphin. Please check it out.
