BrightBlueBeetle's blog post is titled "The grass is always greener on the other side of the Internet" and goes on to say "This is the type of horticultural voyeurism I know everyone.s been waiting for. Catch a glimpse of a sexy lawnmower, or maybe someone fetching the paper in the morning in their underwear. Exciting stuff I know." Well said!!!!

Posting #821 in the grass blog says: "I've cancelled my Netflix.. Showtime and HBO... Who needs all that... When you can Watch Grass Grow!"

this just shows how exciting Dan's life is.
Is he out partying? No...
Is he out meeting girls?- No...
Is he doing anything constructive at all?- No
He's introducing us all to the ever eventful world of WATCHING FREAKING GRASS GROW Laughing
