Could Tailgaiting Lead You To Tailgating?
I keep seeing "tailgating" and "tailgaiting" used interchangeably, and I'm more than a little confused. I thought tailgaiting was crowding someone with your grill up front and tailgating was getting a crowd around your grill in back. Wouldn't a tailgaiting party turn the freeway into a parking lot, while tailgating would mean people turning off the freeway into a parking lot?
Here's a site that will give you tailgaiting types full-blown tailgating envy.

The Seven Little Dirty Words And How They Grow
I guess it never entered my mind that some blog hosting services had an eye toward censorship. I had thought about going over and playing with the new MSN Spaces, but now I'm not very enthusiastic about doing that. I'm not the type to see how much filth I can cram into blog posts, but I'd much rather be my own censor and choose my own words than have some software formula filter my thoughts. And for now, I'd much rather support online venues that appreciate that kind of approach. I hope MSN Spaces will be one of those down the line someday.
