A Girl and her Cat Tour the Web

Over the next few sporadic posts, I, a self proclaimed internet nerd, and my cat Tai, who occasionally stares at the moving pointy thing on the screen, shall be touring my five favorite Strange Internet Phenomenon. This summer, when home with nothing to do, I have begun an investigative research into the strange and scary online world of Fandom. And I shall share with you, oh two or three people from the NTWF who read my blog, my thougts on some of the things I have found.
But now I am tired. As Tai begins his nighttime prowls, I am forced to abandon this endeavor until tomorrow.

To The Bicycle Thief

We're at the beach right now. Not one of the big touristy beaches- a little island with only family beach houses and sea turtle nests. The people here are friendly and happy. The newspaper is one of those small town papers that prints all the crime reports because usually there aren't any.
Last night someone came and stole my grandfather's bicycle.
I suppose it wasn't that bad. Of the four bicycles sitting out in the yard behind the house, it was the cheapest and the oldest. It had no fancy gears or specially designed seating. They didn't steal any of the others. We were all fine- had no clue anything had happened. And they left a ratty old child's bicycle in the sideyard.
But this is the island, the beach. This is a place away from worries and problems in the city. But I guess whoever it was just had to steal that, too.

Jar Jar, you're a genius

So, this webcomic I absolutly ADORE (Darths and Droids, funniest, nerdiest thing I've read in ages) used the phrase that is my posts title and started this. So now I am involved. Plus, I'm actually gonna post things on this blog now. We've got another cat. Her name is Delilah and while she will not have a starring role in this blog, she is still adorable.
