National delurking week

[gordonzola]

Hmmmm, all these people say it's National Delurking Week so who am I to argue?

Cleary one of the best things about LJ is the social interaction. While that can be problematic if one isn't careful, I definitely prefer it to the alternative. It seems there are a lot of lonely blogs out there.

So Lurkers, leave a comment. Especially if you work in the dairy industry. Heh.

I will also mention two blogs by people I know:

deth_nell is my old downstairs neighbor. I think of cats and bikes when I think of her, but she hasn't written about either yet.

My brother's blog is definitely for the committed cyclist. He's a mountain biker, a bike-to-worker, and new cyclocross racer. He's too good for LJ so you'll have to check him out here: http://ramblings.cyclofiend.com/

I had seen you around on the LJs of our mutual friends but I first started lurking after last year's Stupid Punk Rock Death Amnesty Day. A year of lurking is enough for anyone, I figure.

Hi, there.

I like reading your journal but most of the time I don't have much in the way of interesting things to say in response. Especially as regards the dairy industry, which I'm curious about but have little knowledge of.

Jim/Cyclofiend is your brother? It's a small damn world. My bike is the 200th on his gallery website.

I lurk here because all I appear capable of talking about is anarchy-related-BS and I have a sense of propriety. I'm also one of your vegan readers... (2 strikes)

I like cheese.

I delurked the last time you did one of these things. We ahve mutual friends. I enjoy your writing and reading about cheese and SF, but I never feel like I have interesting things to say in return. I will try harder this year.

Am I a lurker? I'm not sure. But I'm definitely not in a dairy industry. I'm in the artsy-crafty industry. Or the printing industry if you prefer.

Now I must officially come out of the lurkey-turkey closet.

You make me remember some of the greatest shit ever about SF. Thanks.

I'm a devout lurker - I forget the first thing of yours I read, but it hit me well enough to want to keep reading.

I'm an sf almost-native (moved to the city at 3), bike geek, used to go to epicenter way too much, and (the world gets smaller) know jim/cyclofiend through a whole bunch of bike-related mailing lists.

Since I have a paid account, I can create an LJ feed for your brother's blog, if that's something you would read in your friends' list.

delurking is such a fun word.
in the vein of dairy:
do people know that commercial cream cheese is not really dairy?
& food:
if meringue was a woman she'd be sexy and coy, soft and voluptuous.
and hey, I hear yer living with a friend of mine, "a brother" of sorts...

I don't know if I qualify as a lurker, but it's been too long since I posted a comment here. Plus, I don't know if mine qualifies as a lonely blog, but I want more social interaction on lj. So here's me saying hey. I broke up with my girlfriend this week and it hurts like a motherfucker. How are you?

I don't mean to be a lurker, but that's what I seem to have become lately. I really enjoy reading your posts, and I'm glad you're on my friends list. :)

I found your blog through evan and stayed for the stories of cheese and the old sf punk rock scene. Last time I went to Rainbow Grocery, I sorta peeked to see if you were there but saw another cheese master who I later saw photographed here.

I am mostly lurktabulous, but I may have commented a couple of times. I found your journal through crazyrants, who recommended you during one of my OMG CHEESE YUM! cheese post frenzies, and you commented in one of those posts, explaining that Buttermilk Blue isn't actually made from buttermilk.
