So, I'm thinking of replacing this blog. While it has served me well on and off since 2004, I feel like it might be time to move on to something a little more with the times, with all that cool stuff like 'tags' and 'recent comments,' you know, the stuff all the cool kids are into. I also wouldn't mind ditching the once clever but now all to cumbersome 'darkbeerisathrillride' from my blog's address. So I'm trying to think of stuff for a new blog...names, themes? What would you, faithful reader (and I use the singular quite intentionally) like to see in the future of this blog? I think that while the new version of this blog will retain its individual identity, it may become more integrated with scotvet.net, if that's cool with Jeni. So what do you think?!
(As a side note, I don't have a counter on this page so I have no idea aside from comments how many people may or may not be reading. I'm not interested in a roll call, but I am specifically interested in knowing if there are any lurkers out there who've found my blog via myspace or facebook. I'm just curious is all.)

Remember when your blog looked ridiculous? Like with the dinosaurs and the alcohol and Forrest Baird's head? Or that Granny with a shotgun? Yeah, that was awesome. It looks entirely too professional and boring now. How bout you make it ridiculous again. That's my two cents.
um. did you just comment on your. own blog? with. advice..? I think you just blew my mind, dude.
As far as names:
Mattitude
Mattastrophe
Matt-er of Fact
Mattsup
Auto-Matt-Ic
Elector-Matt-netic
Or the Blogging Shoes. Just because I like that.
i'll have a blogroll, with crab meat, artichoke hearts and a little fresh ground pepper, if you please, with a dr pepper on the side.
Oh, Anastasia, he does that all the time in real life. It makes things like "two-way conversation" so, I dunno, passe.
My little captcha is "Kuejaq". That might make a good blog name. And I'm all for increased font size and possibly some sort of interestingness on the page.
I can't compete with Chris's names (except maybe Mattemphetamine), but I would love to see a Jungle Animal themed blog with animal analogies and an occasional Jaguar pouncing on links and eating them.
