i mean does it really change things if you can say, "oh, BonSaiPussyKat made a snarky comment, but at least i know who they are..." LOL

funny. Yes, no blog...but, out of respect for people writing blogs which I read, I'd like to formulate something of an identity. I like the word tampon, but come on. It needs another po.

As far as knowing anyone goes, even face to face, good luck.

Yes, your non-blog and made up nonsensical name really distinguishes you from the other anons.
