Last year marked the centenary of World War I, which began in 1914 and ended in 1918.
This year marks the centenary of the Blog, which is another name for a diary or journal.
Today, a new blog is created every half-second. New wars are not quite as frequent.
The blog was given birth by a nineteen-year old waitress at a summer resort
on Lake Erie but she called it a wog, as in "word-log."
We hereby submit some of its earliest pages.
Well, Woggs, we are destined
for a hard ride in life,
with many bumps and jumps,
but it will be a swift,
breathless ride and
we will arrive all the sooner.
So we may as well pull down our hats,
and hang on to our seats.
