THE First Blogger Was.....

OK people, I may have un-earthed the TRUE origins of blogging, which in fact pre-date the Internet itself! Na...? Impossible? Blogging without the Internet? Indeed here today I stake claim to having pieced together a decades old puzzle that will forevermore set straight the entire Internet and give thanks and credit to a true pioneer, OK so that first part about setting the Internet straight was bullshit but the rest is good to go... (and yes I full expect some damn troll to post that so and so already posted this and it's not my idea)

We must define a blog before we can hunt for it... What are the required pieces of a blog? I've got three rules laws of a blog:

#1) A human must record (in electronic format) one's thoughts, feelings, and/or just make incredible claims. (Sorry all those dog blogs don't count)

#2) These records shale be done in a semi timely fashion. Daily blog entries are the goal, even hourly, but oft times blogs get more stale than ... well really stale crackers, in which case they go from blogs (Web log) to Flogs (Forgotten log)

#3) These records must be distributed in electronic format for all to see (well at least more than one's own family)

Now, we've got all the parts defined.. so sit back and prepare to be SHOCKED! Who met all of these requirements? Even before the US Military had unleashed it's DARPA, alien-durived secrets (that hence grew up to be invented by Mr. Gore himself) aka The Internet? Only one man:

Doogie Howser, M.D.

That's right! He blogged!! Before any of us thought it even capable!! At the end of every show (queue corny music) he typed into his fancy computer some life lesson that made us all feel, well, a little gay really.. #1 CHECK!

I didn't miss an episode, and they came once a week baby.. #2 CHECK!

..and finally we all watched him do it!! And it was our love of his crappy show that satisfied #3 CHECK!

So there you have it my friends, give thanks to Mr. Neal Patrick Harris aka Doogie aka One of the funniest damn actors out there!! If you don't believe me, just check him out HERE and HERE.

Thank you Mr. Harris, for opening doors for all peoples which have allowed us to spill our minds across the net.
