Chatter Boxes

I believe proper blogging etiquette says that you should link to things you copy from other blogs. However, I just happened across this little ditty on a blog I don't normally read and wouldn't recommend (there's nothing wrong with it - just not that interesting) so I'm not going to follow blog protocol.

I thought it was kind of interesting nonetheless and since I don't seem to have intriguing thoughts of my own at the moment I thought I'd go for this. Here's how it works...I bold the things I've done and leave the things I haven't. Simple enough huh?

Follow along if you like.
