If you had to choose only one, would you bloggers out there give up your dog or your blog?
I think I would give up my blog but it would be a hard decision.

» Dog or blog? from BeldarBlog
In response to Scheherazade's question, if forced to choose, I'd keep the dog. I'm not sure that my blogging makes the world a better place or me any happier, but my dog definitely does both. [Read More]

Hmm... blogs have some significant advantages. I'm not allergic to them, and I never have to clean up after my blog. So I'm choosing the blog.
Posted by: A. Rickey | January 23, 2004 at 02:14 PM
The blog of course. I can always set up a new one. Getting a new dog takes some effort, and should the person you're getting the replacement dog from learn you abandoned your last pouch for a blog, he may not be so eager to let you have the beast.
So I'd pass on the blog. Besides, have you ever seen a blog play 'fetch'? (An ugly sight indeed. Dangling participles all over the lawn, split infinitives clogging up the bathtub drain. Irrational statements chasing the postal carrier. I may have to let my blogs go anyway.)

No question, the blog.
My blog, alas, doesn't crawl into my lap and give me a comforting purr when I need it.
Though who knows. Maybe it sleeps around and I just don't know it.

I sincerely hope that this is not a decision you are facing...

I would give up both blogs (personal and En Banc) without blinking; then I would beat the person who seriously proposed the question to me over the head with a baseball bat.
Posted by: Greg | January 23, 2004 at 04:03 PM
My dog would like it if I gave up my blog, since they both compete for my attention at times.
Posted by: Dave S. | January 23, 2004 at 04:03 PM
Greg --
Does this mean I should keep my eyes open for you lurking in dark alleys?
Posted by: Scheherazade | January 23, 2004 at 04:07 PM
I'd give up the blog. Ask whether the boyfriend or the blog and that's another matter!
Posted by: Scheherazade | January 23, 2004 at 04:18 PM
You gotta be kidding. Have you ever heard of someone referring to a blog as man's best friend? Did St. Bernard say "Love me, love my blog"?
Of course, I may be biased. I've always somewhat regretted choosing law school over veterinary school.
Posted by: Stuart Levine | January 23, 2004 at 05:13 PM
You are on to something. The blog fulfils some therapeutic functions. Dogs warmer and cuter obviously. The blog goes!

I'd never give up my dog. I'm not sure that my blogging makes the world a better place or me any happier, but my dog definitely does both.
Posted by: Beldar | January 23, 2004 at 07:35 PM
Which dog?
Well, the blawg can go. If I gave up either dog, the kids would kill me. And I'm not exaggerating.
Posted by: CE Petit | January 24, 2004 at 01:31 PM
I guess I'm the only one that would strongly consider giving up the dog. Of course, my dog barks at the toaster for an hour each morning.
Posted by: TPB, Esq. | January 24, 2004 at 01:54 PM
I can't think of much of anything I'd give up my dog for, honestly.
Posted by: kodi | January 24, 2004 at 09:32 PM
My dog is 13, bad legs, bad hearing, bad breath, bad manners. She was once declared "cute" by a future federal judge as she wagged her tail at him in the middle of our town.
I'd say we'd give up about everything we've got for her, if it comes to that, but I'm afraid it won't.
Posted by: Steve | January 25, 2004 at 11:09 AM
This is a test, isn't it? And you're supposed to be evil and self-centered if you choose something as narcissistic and devoid of unconditional love as your blog over the poor helpless creature giving you giant puppy-eyes as you type.
I plead the Fifth.
Posted by: JCA | January 25, 2004 at 09:13 PM
if you ask such question, then you should really give up your dog, because you definetly dont love him enough

Beautiful site!

Not much on my mind right now. Today was a complete loss. So it goes. I've just been sitting around waiting for something to happen. I've basically been doing nothing , but I guess it doesn't bother me.

It is surprising, how you have guessed before? Remember a proverb? 7 times measure, 1 time cut off. You should think about amortization calculator free loan
