alternative mainlining

if there is an 'alternative' of something, wait long enuf and it will be mainstream. everybody longs to be 'cool', 'unique', innovative...cutting edge... but when everybody starts doing it, whatever 'it' may be,it's no longer cool, its for the masses. when i was a kid it was hippies. but after a few years, every housewife from boston to boise was wearing bell bottoms and love beads. the mainline media has decided they are NOT gonna let the bloggers stay underground. (isnt CNN and blogging a contradiction in terms?)now exposed to the putrid stench of vultures, may the cybergod grant the wisdom to blog with unabashed honesty, never pose or posture, and the wisdom to recognize the difference...
