And the bear emerges

I just wanted to say how happy I am! Spring must be in the air because my fellow Idea Showerarians (?) are returning to the fold. And I began to wonder if maybe creativity is like a bear, hibernating from the cold, dismal conditions outside. And maybe by its emergence, spring is heralded.

Fuck the groundhog. Creativity is the true signal of spring.

I hope we will all submit some blog entry or two this month to celebrate spring. I know my creativity hibernates through the winter months. (I also find that my finances blossom like flowers come the thaw, probably due to tax refunds and fewer holidays). And so I am set to embark on wallowing in the creative mud as spring envelopes me in its loving, warm arms.

Fuck winter.

Wait, did we have a no swearing policy here? Hmm, I must have thought I was back at rockrageous.blogspot.com (shameless plug). How cheeky of me!

Anyway, I was glossing over the "Puddles" side column, enjoying all the wacky tags. Statistically, our top favourite tags include the following:

• Americans (3 tags)
• Canadians (3)
  
• IPod (3)
• Work (3)
  

That's how wacky we are, discussing our music lives and work lives (both constitute a great chunk of our days). And oddly, considering only 16% of our bloggers are American, Canadians and Americans are running at 50/50 tags. The next most tagged topics are:

• farm (2)
  
• news (2)
• stupid people (2)
• travel (2)

And my top 3 personal favourite wacky tags are:

• mustaches
• pigeons
• zombies

The top blog writers by number of blogs written (though it's not a contest, so no pressure!):

• Joe Wet Cow (12)
• Girl on the Corner (8)
• Lilly (7)
• Good Man's Daughter (3)
  
• Nan Eff (2)
• Triptych Chick (0)

Who is Triptych Chick? Will you write with us? Will you shower in the ideas with us? It's much good fun!
