Why are first blog posts always so lame?

Hey everyone I've got a blog... and the world sighs collectively as yet another person with nothing to say enters the giddy realms of blogging. Well, this isn't my first ever blog post. I've been a contributor to other blogs, run my own typepad blog etc. I just wanted somewhere to write.

So why a blog? Why indeed? I think Mr Scott Adams answer that:

People who are trying to decide whether to create a blog or not go through a thought
process much like this:
1. The world sure needs more of ME.
2. Maybe I'll shout more often so that people nearby can experience the joy of knowing my thoughts.
3. No, wait, shouting looks too crazy.
4. I know - I'll write down my daily thoughts and badger people to read them.
5. If only there was a description for this process that doesn't involve the words egomaniac or unnecessary.
6. What? It's called a blog? I'm there!

So there you go. One post in and I'm passing off someone else's creativity to entertain people. Welcome to the journey from Pantperthog to Knockando!

    Firsts posts are also lame because they don't have a second to support it.

    Well, for a first blog, I think it was rather entertaining, but then I'm no expert on blogs. That said, feel rather inspired to start my own (now look what you've done)
    watch this space, well, not this one obviously because it's Jon, so, just find a space and watch it.

    Yes.... I rather think I will start my own now, too. Quite what I will find to say that`s interesting though, I have no idea... Jon always was the witty one of the outfit....
