R.I.P. BLOGS

Reuters News Service- Portland, Oregon

The search for new posts has officially been called off, and blogs were declared dead yesterday.  Searchers and die hard fans had held out hope for the past few months that blogs would be found alive and healthy, but in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary, they have given up hope.  Blogs had a full and happy life, reaching their personal and professional high point in the mid 2000's.  Some signs of trouble had appeared in recent years, as blogs had been dominated by narcissistic moms writing about their kids and Brooklyn hipsters writing about food trucks, but nobody expected a complete disappearance until blogs went missing a couple of months ago.  Blogs are survived by their younger, sexier, girlfriend Twitter, and their mentally challenged cousin Facebook.
In lieu of flowers, please Paypal a struggling writer money instead.
