Lorem ipsum

It has been well, and truly stated:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.
Well, now, what are we to do with that? Most blogs hit you with that icy blast of perverted Latin and expect you to line your birdhouse, build your doghouse, and instruct your children by it, but in the light of the flickering television set, why should they listen to you instead? This blog will not now leave you empty-handed, for this blog is about proper explanation of these matters to AMERICANS. And while most Americans don't have time to nulla pariatur, when I say to you instead,
Nor again is there anyone who loves or pursues or desires to obtain pain of itself, because it is pain, but occasionally circumstances occur in which toil and pain can procure him some great pleasure. To take a trivial example, which of us ever undertakes laborious physical exercise, except to obtain some advantage from it? But who has any right to find fault with a man who chooses to enjoy a pleasure that has no annoying consequences, or one who avoids a pain that produces no resultant pleasure?
You see, now that nonsense has been explained properly so any proper American can understand it during a commercial break. Is it football season in America? Yes, and yet we can still read blogs, as long as they are short. Is it football season in New Zealand? I don't know, but when I find out I can explain that to you, properly. In American.

  1. Football? What's football? Only rugby and cricket matter in these lands!
