The Panic Blog

Ah, the late night panic blog. I wonder how many of my fellow classmates are writing one of these at the same time as I am. Probably several of them. Does a blog really count if you're being forced into writing it? Surely that's blog bullying. Teachers used to use canes, then they just shouted and now they want us to make us reveal our innermost thoughts to the world. I think I'd rather have the cane.
I wonder if somebody will read this tomorrow. They might even have to comment on it. Maybe I should make it deliberately 'naff so they have something to write about. A spelling mistake there, a dodgy semi-colon usage here - they'll thank me for it. Then at least when we're asked for our thoughts and views on the old blogging 'larky somebody will be able to put up their hand immediately and rip this little thing to shreds. And we won't have to endure several minutes of the whole class looking at each other and silently begging them to say something. Anything. I might practice my accepting-of-constructive-criticism-at-all-times face before I go to bed. No doubt i'll need it.
This is still lacking in sustenance really (I just gave it a quick once over). I think I'll throw in a little bit of a plotline. Just to spice things up a little. Or perhaps a limerick. They're a bit outdated now mind. Whatever happened to a good old limerick? You'd be considered a bit strange for telling your mate a limerick nowadays. Not me though. Let me make it abundantly clear right now that any member of the human race may approach me at anytime to let rip a little limerick. Alright?
I think we'll leave it there for today.

Laying Down the Law

OK. First post. Should probably lay out some ground rules.
Got to be careful not to share anything incriminating, post anything copywritten or publish photo's of a policeman. Also to bear in mind is to withhold my name, password, address, and mother's dogs maiden-name.
Another factor to be aware of is not mention anything remotely offensive about any person in the world who might want to gather the Legals together and place me neatly in jail or just kick my front teeth out.
Probably shouldn't share anything too personal either - it may come back to haunt me in several years time and ruin my mariage, occupation, criminal record, credit rating, no-claims discount or permission to own household pets.
Let's not forget that swearing is obviously a big no-no.
Plus, anything controversial regarding politics, religion and/or the economy.
Doesn't leave a whole lot of wiggle room, really, does it?
I'll give it a go anyway. See you once a week.
GL.
