Please Ignore

Sometimes you just don't have anything to say. There's nothing wrong with that on a blog--ChicagoGuy hasn't had anything to say for three months and we haven't docked him one day's pay.

But it makes me wonder. If I were a salaried columnist (a plum job, seems to me) who had to churn out pensees on a regular basis, would I have some warhorse subjects I could return to when I'm dry, or would I be running around like the McKenzie Brothers, looking for a new topic?
