*Little Known Blog Rules About The Posting of Babies*

...yes, they ruin your cred as a serious journalist but what does that mean ANYWAY --- at present that means you hire qualified people to work for you for free...that IS serious shit my dudes and dudettes...

*Anyway, back to the rules: "Sec II Column IV: if said baby is from your family or extended family or baby of a friend as far back as elementary school you are allowed to post as many photos of it/she/him in any format, size, color or medium that you wish without losing street cred, as it were...taking photographic interest in the folds of its neck, the fat of its legs, the stupid tranquility under which it sleeps shall go unnoticed by photographic communities but also noticed because what person doesn't like babies? OTHER PEOPLES' BABIES, I SAID, other peoples' babies...I know that the community of photographers I am familiar with ain't producin' anything as wonderful as this ball of idiocy any time soon!!! RELAX. (More on that in the chapter entitled "Self-Involved Photographers" -- shh, i'm mentioned on the first page, column 3!). In conclusion, use of the words "stupid" and "fat" can and will be used as many times as possible as this is what babies are and I don't have one problem with either of these words in this context, although Sarah Palin might.

So that's what is written in "Serious Blogging For Serious Journalists," Chapter 2.

Thx.
