I have been mulling over creating a blog for some time now. So, seeing as how I google everything... "how to start a blog". Up comes blogger, I create a google account and all that. Then I am asked to create a url for the blog and you can imagine my surprise - someone else is using the name Oldnag! I have been using this name for close to 20 years now and I have never run across anyone using this name. OUTRAGE! The nerve! Some guy writing a blog in German no less. How does he come across the name Oldnag? Is Oldnag actually a German word? It probably means awesome dude in German and I've been using it all this time without knowing...
The purpose of my blog: I have got opinions about tons of stuff. I can not figure out how everyone else in the world has survived up to now without knowing my opinions. Frankly, it is a mystery to me. I don't want the greater public to have to go one day more living their bleak, lost lives wondering what I might have to say about a certain subject. Remedy: blog.
Now to think of something interesting to write... Wouldn't you know it, the one time I need to go on an interesting rant about something and I come up empty handed. Fear not - this never lasts long for me. I plan to have completely ridiculous posts interspersed with thoughtful posts. Is anyone going to be interested in that? I would be surprised...pleasantly :)
Oldnag is not a German word, and has no German translation. Old Nag in German is Alte Nag. (for if you ever want to translate your blog into German....)
ReplyDeleteI am totally pumped to be following along with you on this! Can't wait to read your rants and hang out with you in this way.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe that someone stole your name...it is rough out here in the blogosphere!
