The power of the NEXT BLOG button!!




OK, I did it! I was visiting Annalee's blog back in August and she had this comment about using the Next Blog button. I'd tried it once and wasn't overly interested. However, she got my curiosity working over time so I decided to test it again...BAD girl! BAAAD girl!
I had FUN! I wasted 3 hours of eyeball strain cruising and drifting where-ever "next' sent me. I was visiting Sweden, Brazil, Canada, China, United Kingdom and some on the home turf. You know what else is great? No Jet Lag!
I laughed hysterically at some of these from this website...some might be insulting, me being female and all...but taking it within the humorous context it was meant to be...see what YOU think by clicking HERE and also HERE . These will take you to "the ever dumdum Teddy Bear's" site "3-some". A male's perspective of things is just SO interesting!

Then I found an inspirational and informative account of , I think, a reporter experiencing the front lines in New Orleans with pictures you don't see on TV,
interested? Click HERE or another entry HERE . Some of the entries are kind of shocking or they inspire my empathy and concern. You can't come away from his blog without some type of opinion. See if you don't.

His latest post just blows my mind! Fax indeed....hurrmph!


Then I found a blog that has tons of pictures of ordinary life. I think every entry has a picture..some of them are really nice! One is a tad weird, but that's all a matter of perspective, isn't it?? Check him out
I couldn't pick a specific entry to focus on..he had so many cool pic's!!!


The one from China hit my funny bone although I am sure that it was NOT intentional. She was expressing her dissatisfaction of the over-hype of Disney in Hong Kong. She was tired of hearing about it. Heh...like WE don't get alot??
She even mention that she heard complaints of people not liking the waiting in lines for rides and was too crowded. THEN, she made the comment that "it is the feature of our society"...waiting in long lines" and" endless complaining about everything"... interesting insight! Of course, English entries were few..most were in her native language. I enjoyed the few English ones she had. Neat to see Chinese writing on my computer.

So, Have YOU ever tried the Next Blog button? If so, where in the world has it taken you??? AND, has it ever taken you to the same place twice???

For some reason, Blogger put 3 of these lovely rainbows when I only wanted one.
Oh,well..pretty is as pretty does.


Hope you find something of interest here today!
Thanks for visiting , and since it is Monday....Have
a great WEEK!!!!

Edit Update: I love this news. I'm a closet Johnny Depp fan and I found out some fun news...did you hear???
Check this link and Celebrate!. Looking forward now to 2006 and 2007..yippee!!!!!

You're a brave girl. I did NEXT one time and about five blogs later, I was on somebody's porno site. I said that's it. No more. (g)

LOL, Tanya!
I'm not brave, just nosy and curious. I was lucky I didn't get "that" kind of site. Although I could have used the laugh. *grin*

Hello Michelle,

You've seen mine and so I figured I'd better see your's.

(You know that sounded much better in my head...)

Nice bit about the Next Blog button. Especially the journo in New Orleans - ones like that are gold dust.

Anyway, I'll definitely be checking in with you now on.

Happy blogging.

- Richard
