Another year...
Six years have come and gone and this time we didn't even realize it. Anyone remember when we thought we were actually accomplishing something (even miniscule) that was either entertaining or educating the public? I think we may be reaching the point at which, dare I say, the Convoginators have become obsolete. I know that may strike some of you as an impossibility, but the world may not need our political insight, witty commentaries or just plain silliness, anymore. I for one have noticed that my random youtube post is a sad attempt at reclaiming those days of old when the Convoginators garnered as many as thirty readers a day. I am thankful that a handful of people out there have forgotten to remove us from their feed readers and we still rack up to thirty readers a week.
I wonder if we need to have a telethon to raise awareness of the importance of our site? I knew we should have had a booth at the 2009 Hope Watermelon Festival...did anyone go? I for one am a sad excuse for a Convoginator and a human being. I have not been in touch with Phynerk in at least seven years. I'm pretty sure that most of the members have written me off as "missing in action."
So there it is. The Happy Sixth (Belated) Birthday post for the Convoginators. I do believe we have seen this thing through infancy, into puberty, midlife and now we are nearing the end. Maybe a blog's life is counted in dog years...
