The lonliest...letter?

Feed Me!When I looked at my Blogroll today, I noticed something… I have every letter in the alphabet filled with at least one Weblog. But not every letter. A few lonely letters remain. They are fine letters too. I don’t have anything against these letters. But they remain nonetheless; letters with abundant pride that choose to stand even though they have no occupants.

They are: F, G, I, O, Q, U, V, X, Y, and Z.

Yes, some of these letters seem fairly common — a few even leave me surprised that they are not filled. But when people are choosing the names for their Blogs, I fear that they are not examining the plethora of grammatical choices that are available to them. (I admit, beginning my own Weblog with a “T” is not very creative, as so many titles begin with the word, “The.” But I am not responsible for my first name!)

So, I beg you, kind visitors, please feed my Blogroll. I know, it would be easy enough for me to simply search out any old Blogs that have titles beginning with the letters I need, but I want something of substance. Something I will check on every day (as I do all of those existing Weblogs in my Blogroll).

Who out there can fill the Qs or the Vs or the Xs…?

It could be you.

Now I definitely deserve some sort of prize

I say you add these superfluous missing letters as silent letters within the existing blogs on your blogroll.

I have no problem being XCynical Rantings.

as lucas said you could use mine (www.for-the-time-being.blogspot.com) or use up/rooted (www.up-rooted.blogspot.com). but not just for the letters…
