3rd Commandment
Blogging's a serious matter; definitely not something to be taken lightly. It is with in the mind that I present commandment five, no three. The third commandment: Thou shalt not start thy blog and leave it bereft and adrift.

Commentary follows: This commandment may not be perfectly clear. All blogs will eventually wind down and die, simply because all bloggers will eventually wind down and die. But if your blog is to die then your blog must truly die. It's simple to take it off the server and free up space for those ready will the void made by your passing. But no, many people leave up blogs that haven't been posted on in years. Perhaps you want your blog to still be accessible; you want to look back at how you thought back then. This is perfectly acceptable, but you have give it a sense of closure, you have to have a final post, there must be finality. You can come back to it and post again, but you've got to show that you didn't just forget about the cursed thing. You owe it to your readers, be they real or imagined.




And remember the guiding light, lest we forget the glory that be Lemon Party.
