The Right Column

Silly Billy's Rant

(as opposed to Poor Richard's
   Almanac?)

How do you input scripts 
(movie scripts?) 
on line?

How could anyone
get their mind around
all this crap that is
blogging around the
Internet?

Blogging?  Jogging?
A jog is a run through 
the hilly sub and urb places
of your world.  A marathon
is an arduous and harried 
(at the end . . .) rush forward
into the approaching breakdown.

Is the equivalent in the world
of literature and writing, 
equivelent in similly, 

jog -- blog
marathon -- what is it called?

Is what Jack Kerouac did
the equivalent to a marathon to
a jogger?  Jack approached
writing as athletics. . . 
His scroll novels were
marathon writing sessions.

Ah, and that is what it is.
And we have all heard of that
before, marathon writing.

typeathon?
Blogathon?

Cross-country running?
Take in the whole landscape,
the world that is here and now, take 
it in.  Live in it now.
