- Ol' Sam here was really the first blogger. He lived from 1663-1703. Tell me, all you bloggers ... Will your blog be remembered 300 years from now? Hmmmm.

- Ah, here's a very appropriate link to break my hiatus. This guy Pepys (I think you say that "peeps") really knew how to stick to writing something every day. I'm actually very good about sticking to a daily schedule offline. I have a set of journals I've written in every day since 1995, even if some days were just a line saying why I couldn't write more. Most days are filled in though, and it's pretty interesting to see how I've evolved... Wonder if I could make them interesting enough for anyone to want to read them 350 years from now.

- Wednesday 28 December 1664 I waked in the morning about 6 o'clock and my wife not come to bed; I lacked a pot, but there was none, and bitter cold, so was forced to rise and piss in the chimney, and to bed again. Slept a little longer, and then hear my people coming up, and so I rose, and my wife to bed at eight o'clock in the morning, which vexed me a little, but I believe there was no hurt in it all, but only mirthe, therefore took no notice."

- Samuel Pepys' diary, one day at a time. Check out Christmas Day 1664, nicely summed up by Happyacres on his Stumbleupon blog:
- Pepys is a scoundrel. He attends church alone this Christmas -- his wife can't be seen in public with the black eye he's given her. Pepys mind wanders from his wife and mistresses when he observes the "very great store of fine women there is in this church, more than I know anywhere else about us." He's on the prowl.

- From the page: "The Diary of Samuel Pepys Daily entries from the 17th century London diary" Diaries are always a source of faboulous and fascinating information. This one has some interesting annotations and additional bits of info. This will make a fantastic read in free time.
