Guest Post: nwgThinks

*newwavegurly walks around AliThinks and gives the tires a kick*

Hmmm, not bad, not bad at all. I think I could take a ride in this baby.

For better or worse, I agreed to be one of Ali's guest bloggers. I am not here to pimp my own blog, I'm here helping out a friend. Really I am.

Some of you are wondering who I am, some of you have seen me hangin' around here at Ali's blog before, some of you know me the same way Ali knows me, and some of you probably don't give a damn who I am, just as long as I get on with the blog entry. I have some choice words for all of you (some choicer than others), but as this is Ali's blog, and I promised her a guest post, I shall proceed.

Sh*t, after all that, I'm not quite sure what to say. That says a lot, because I am rarely at a loss for words.

Okay, let's give it a try.

Four score and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new nation: conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

Crap! That's already been done before, hasn't it?

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal."

Damnit, that one's been done before too.

The only thing we have to fear... is fear itself.

Yeah, I know. That's not original either. Hell, it was even sampled at the end of that Living Colour song "Cult Of Personality". 

That's it. I give up. Looks like all the truly unique and inspirational words have already been used. So let it be written, so let it be done.

OK, my liege, I shall not bend my knee before any other.. either, or is it neither??? I get so confused in these big inspirational thingys. Let me go reread the 10 commandments. be right back.

Nothing against guest bloggers, but I hope the real Alison is not kept as hostage somewhere, somehow - I'll investigate about this - maybe we should start collecting for some ransom to rescue her getting our host again if she's not back within a month (or a year?) - but meantime let's give guest bloggers a bonne chance - it's a nice idea anyway..

Sometimes it's not about the words that you use that leave an impression, it's meaning behind them. More than often, the well meant gesture pales in comparison of the words expressed. Kudos to your act of contributation: It shows a willingness to assist.
