I've decided that looking at huge swaths of text that I have written is probably extremely boring to the average peruser of this blog. As I am, most probably, the largest peruser of this blog, I can safely make that statement.
So I try and chop up the English a little bit with pictures that I grab from google. I think it helps keep things interesting. At the very least, it makes it less of a burden for me to have to paint a picture using just my rudimentary writing skills.
For example, were I to write about... I dunno... Alaskan snow dogs, I could find something appropriate pretty quickly:
Alternatively, were I pushing some fiction involving.. umm.. an invasion of dinosaurs from outer space, google would help me there, too:
In fact, images.google.com has become a sort of barometer for my posts: when I have done or thought something so completely unique that I cannot represent its parts as visual snippets from google, then I will know, unconditionally, that I have hit pure
