New Blog Title!

This is what I woke up to this morning.  I haven't included all 50 or so tweets, but here's enough to give you the picture....

@kls4711 @jonbergmann @crystalkirch : please join with me in encouraging @guster4lovers to lose the "Pathetic Attempt" title from her blog.

@thomasson_engl @kls4711 @guster4lovers U read my mind from 2days ago. That's exactly what I was thinking.You're not pathetic.Take it off :)

@thomasson_engl @jonbergmann @crystalkirch @guster4lovers Twitter pressure: lose the self-deprecating blog title!

@kls4711 Since we're pressuring @guster4lovers not 2 call her blog Pathetic, we should suggest Alternate Titles. I vote for "Ion Lucidity."

@guster4lovers Ions are charged particles, right? And lucidity = bringing light to. So you're bringing light to the charged particles.

@guster4lovers Also, "Ion Lucidity" is a casual chemistry reference, and as such, pays tribute to our forefathers.

So here's the deal we struck:

@guster4lovers @kls4711 @crystalkirch Done and done.

Look for that in the near future.  And update your bookmarks please!

And the most hilarious part of the whole exchange was this:

@guster4lovers @kls4711 But I will only write it if you authorize slight fabrications. I love invention like Julia Child loved butter.

I'm pretty sure you automatically win the internet if you get retweeted by ButterChallenge.  So bravo, Andrew Thomasson.  I look forward to your explanation of why this blog is now called MorrisFlipsEnglish Blog: Ion Lucidity.
