Blog-ed

I was talking to Grannygear Troy the other day about something that we’ve both been noticing lately. The monthly editorials written by some of the BIG 4wd magazine editors have started to look a whole lot more like blogs than editorials.

This phenomenon seems a little weird at best, and of course, JP Magazine’s John Cappa has taken it to the extreme, as seems to be the norm. Sorry folks, but an editor’s frat-house chug-a-lug habits are not only a subject that I don’t care about when I’m looking for a bit of Jeep info, but (as a matter of personal observation) they’re pretty pathetic too. Very disappointing.

My take on it is to have fun, but stay professional in the context of the magazine (to whatever degree you can). Then, if you must, choose a more suitable venue to let your personal stupidity hang out for everyone to see. That’s what I use this blog for, and yes, I’ve been know to make some pretty stupid personal comments here too.

You might even think that this is one of them.
