viddyviddy

This beast is going to be about podcast reviews from now on.

So!

Considering that this blog is still totally bereft of any content, I shall speak of its origins.

Everybody has a blog. Everybody. Your mother has one, and she writes about what a disappointment it was that you decided to get that liberal arts degree instead of becoming a nice doctor or plumber or something that didn't involve Victorian lesbian poetry and when are you going to meet a nice boy?

I, apparently, am a part of everybody. So now I have a blog as well.

The title of the blog was a killer to come up with. I find the most harrowing part of creating something is coming up with the title or name. My characters is D&D have no idea the struggle that I have coming up with their names while I throw their skills points willy-nilly onto the sheets of paper that represent their existence.

Viddyviddy is totally not what I wanted to name this blog. Originally the name was going to be a tremendously clever play on the last lines from T.S. Elliot's poem The Wasteland. See, I thought it was spelled "Shanti" and this blog's title was meant to be "Shanti, shanting, shantied". Get it? It implies the past, present and future forms of the...word...and its a reference to a major Modernist...poem...

Ok, yeah. Turns out it is spelled "Shantih" and the whole thing went up in flames.

Now the title is viddyviddy. Figure out the reference for yourself.

Test, testing, tested.
