what is a blog?

Merriam Webster: a Web site that contains an online personal journal with reflections, comments, and often hyperlinks provided by the writer

Thank goodness it doesn't say anything about the frequency of updates necessary to make it a blog.

But since I am already typing stories all day I'd have to type about typing stories and that just doesn't seem right.

So I'll be not updating this anymore until Africa trip, although I will try to upload some of the Gent pix sometime in the next week or two. The Tour takes every bit of energy out of the riders, but it doesn't fare much better on us "journalists" (I'll have to put this into quotes as merely thinking in these terms seems rather silly for me -I think right now I see myself as not really employed. Just having fun.)

Anyway, here is what I have been doing last week, to get together a story on the Tour coming to my new hometown:
