How a Blog can eat my Words.

i wonder at the state of the creative world when the machine is used to record every thoughts that roll around in our heads. Journals used to be the tool to muse or amuse one self with. Journals were personal tools that were very private and only released after the death of that person. The person in question had to be, of some high status or no one would care. How many John Doe's do you know whose journal has been released in hardback or paperback even? I only know of one such case, and that is Anne Frank. I guess there are probably more but not at the rate that are coming out now. But i can go get Anne Frank journals, her thoughts can be in my hands, I can flip through it. I can hold it close or very far away. I can store it away for 50 years and read it again, but what if i type up my accounts of the world and then my computer blows. Fuck right. Nothing. anyway this is just the beginning of a bigger thoughts I have.
