Chronicle of a Wankery Foretold.

Putz once said:

There’s a lot of stuff I tend more or less by design not to blog. I mean, I blog about war stuff, but I try to blog about stuff that gives perspective. So I tend to skip both the ‘new suicide bombing in Baghdad’ perennial story, and the ‘top aide of Zarqawi captured’ perennial story. Because in a way, those aren’t really news: they don’t really tell you anything about what’s happening. Unless there’s some reason to pay extra attention, I consider those types of stories part of the background noise.

So, it ought to surprise exactly no one that he'd rather blog about the James Beard Foundation, baseless speculation on home prices, beer and a dvd sale than, oh, this.
