Valentine Prophesy: Love At Cabela's

The Google Brotherhood of All-Up-In-My-Blog is now popping up a Google-Related toolbar at the bottom. Fascinating. Google picks up keywords from the website and suggests other sites or videos with related content. Wouldn't it be great if it helped with author marketability? Oh, wait...that would be too helpful. For now, I'm getting six pictures of Bill Murray in varying poses of disheveled career-dom and links to bob-mitchell videos that highlight the fulfillment of the end-of-world prophesy. Not quite the demographic I'm writing for, but this is all a work-in-progress, is it not?

Speaking of blogs, I just broke one of the (supposed) cardinal rules of blogging: No more than three lines of text before a paragraph break. Man, are you guys in trouble. This rule would have cramped Faulkner. It cramps me. I have faith in Vortexers that their attention span is longer than my attention span while watching the Grammy's.

Gotta cut this short today so I can do my part to get on the Valentine-gerbil wheel. You may think that since I sailed from Romancelandia, I am no longer a romantic. Not true. I am just into the quiet, the meaningful, the non-materialistic, the unpredictable, the messy, wonderful everyday parts of love. Here are links backs to two of my favorite valentine Vortex Lists and more, if you're so inclined:

But I Live in Gnaw Bone, Indiana! How Romance is Possible Anywhere. Even Cabela's.

Next up: My new favorite movie is probably one you've never heard of. Looooove it.

So no more than three lines of text before a paragraph break???? What if you use parallel sentence construction and mix it up with compound-complex structuring? Just thinking out loud here.

Sorry, I only read this much:

Lol. Not really.

@Stewart...Ik, right? WAY too restricting.

@Charles...Sorry the sarcasm didn't come through for you. Part of me wants to shut it off, but part of me wants to study how it changes as my posts change.

Cabela's... never, never, never, again!
In the ancient days, Lady Catherine had a finely sanded post installed in her bedroom. The 'Romantic Hero' kept it waxed, ahhh.

@dc...LOL. I'll just bet he did. Love it when you stop by :)
