Is this thing on?

OK, well, this is my first entry in a "blog." What does blog stand for?

I could go look it up, but that would be too much work.

Beetles Leaping Over Geese?
Bloated Ladies Of Georgia? Oops, I better take that one back. But nobody is from Georgia here, I think.
Bottled Liquor; Obviously Good. Again, maybe not.
Burping Letters Offers Gratuities. Nate?

So perhaps this is a good place to stop and do some homework.
