Audio Blogging

A short of story about stuff, life and things moms, dads, men and women of many ages can relate to…maybe. 🙂

You can blame this post upon my stats because several people read Jibberish, No Gibberish, No Screw the midwest.

It is an old favorite of mine starring a cast of characters that don’t show up very often around here or anywhere else I hang out for that matter.

Most of them are like ghostly memories that rattle their chains and moan in the quiet of the night just loud enough to remind me of their presence.

Hard to believe that post is almost 12 years-old now or that once upon a time audio blogging was considered cutting edge.

Half Naked Thursday Revisited

Half naked Thursday was one of those things that your mother suggested you think twice about.

“Don’t put naked pictures of yourself on the Internet” or “No one wants to see your butt/cleavage/tattoo or worse.”

But back in the day it was kind of fun to see who would do what and how much they might reveal.

Ma Steiner would have been proud of me because I never participated because I didn’t like the idea of not having control of where those photos might end up.

And let’s face it, no one really wanted to see anything that wasn’t suggestive so I just didn’t do it.

Reminds me of some other things I just didn’t do and some I should have.

Don’t have many regrets, but there are a few.

Might have to do another Audiopost or two soon. There are some pretty good ones floating around here, it just might be time.

There are days when I want to tell my kids that one of the secrets to life isn’t to focus on being great, but upon being good enough.

Doesn’t mean I am interested in mediocrity or suggesting they settle for that either but that sometimes we don’t really need to shoot for the moon.

Sometimes we need something higher to shoot for, but less than impossible to achieve. Something possible, probable and likely.

 

That’s sort of what this audio post is about. Might have to follow up with something fleshed out and more substantive later.

If you can’t listen to the The IPhone/Droid Conflict-The Write Stuff on the blog you might find try it over here.

Of course if you are wondering what it is about and need some help deciding if you should listen you could read a few more words.

Those would tell you there are comments and thoughts about the writing process when using a pen/typewriter versus dictating it into a computer.

And you’d hear something about the difference between an iPhone and a Droid.
