Since this is the last blog I’m ever going to write, please don’t bother responding.  In fact, don’t even continue reading this.  Not that any of you are going to take what I say with a grain of salt anyway.  And that’s my point.  You shouldn’t!  What do I know?  Who said I’m an expert at anything?  Last I checked, I’m not getting paid for this or have any editors at my disposal.  If I want to read an article on an educational topic, my favorite sports team or places to travel, I’ll want to read it from an expert writer who gets paid and actually knows what they’re talking about.  Not from someone who’s giving me their opinion. 

            That’s what blogs are.  People who have an opinion and want to shout it out for the world to hear.  Now, I’m sure I’m missing the whole point.  You’re probably thinking to yourself, “that’s the point knucklehead, we have something to say and people will be enlightened or interested or at the very least amused at what we are writing about”.  Alright, I’ll concede to that.  Some of the blogs I’ve read are slightly amusing or mildly interesting.   If anything, blogs are better off used between friends or as an educational activity to motivate students to write.  But, what do I know?  It’s just my opinion.  Right?
