Maybe it's watching entirely too much of the history channel, or maybe it's just sheer boredom that brings on watching entirely too much of the history (Hitler) channel. Whatever the cause and or whatever came first in this chicken/egg scenario, I was feeling a bit nostalgic this afternoon, and went gallivanting off into the archives of convogination in search of entertainment. I was quite taken back upon reading some of our original posts; I think I may have forgotten our roots.
Just the other day I was thinking to myself how little "convogination" actually takes place anymore. Granted, I like the fact that we've broadened our horizons, expanded the scope of acceptable topics, and moved into such fascinating areas as politics, Eric's delinquent humor, Matthew's crude contests, Manteca's Wal-Mart rants, and my own incessant babbling about aviation, life in general, and how much it may or may not suck at the moment. In spite of all of the wonderful content we have to offer, I sense that we may be depriving the world of our intended purpose: raising awareness of chocolate milk.
So that in mind, I challenge every convoginator to enjoy some convoginated goodness this week, and if possible to encourage and/or force another to do the same. We can still talk politics, Matthew can still owe me $50, Eric can still post, Manteca can still rant, and Lord knows I'll continue to babble incessantly... but we need a pilgrimage back to our roots. We need... convogination.
