Blah-Blah or Not?

I am watching "The Big Break" on Golf Channel. Basically there are 11 women who are in a golf contest of sorts. The eventual winner gets an exemption to play in an LPGA event. It's interesting and entertaining, except for one thing - the jibber-jabbing between every stroke.

There are several challenges and contests. It seems that after every player hits the ball, we have to listen to her explain how she felt and why her shot wasn't great and what she thinks, blah, blah, blah. It gets very boring after awhile.

Sure, it's interesting to hear people talk and explain themselves - sometimes. But sometimes it's time to just be quiet for awhile.

I read several blogs of people - most of whom I don't know but happened upon, usually from a link from someone else's blog. Most of them are interesting because they talk about things that are happening in their lives. But every now and then, a blogger goes on and on and on - expressing every single thought that crosses her mind. I keep reading, hoping for a morsel of written word to chew on. But sometimes it just isn't there. Sometimes

It's just

a sentence

poetically

written.

What's the moral of this story? Simply this: what's blah-blah to me is golden nuggets to someone else. Every blogger has that reader that salivates while waiting for that blog to load, eager to read that day's epistle. It's the same for "The Big Break." There's a viewer out in TV Land that held on to every word the lady golfers spoke. They loved every syllable and utterance the golfer put out.

So blah-blah on, people. There's somebody out there waiting to hear and read what you have to say.

Actually, not. It was a different one that I got at an expo. However, when I was pulling it out, I came across the 3-Day one, and kept it out for future wogs - just have to get some bike shorts for underneath!
