Blogging or not blogging?

So last night at Madame Moselle and Nick Moselle's party, we (Hala, Richard, Matt, Marty and I)  had a debate about blogging. Hala is totally against it and i guess i understand her point but i still argued over it. (well arguing is fun.....right?, it makes you think through and develops your brain.....)
 
Her point: why blogging when you have nothing to say, who cares if you write you went for a p.  at 3am, and you had a great night with so and so.  Stop blogging at work and work instead, why do you think your life is so interesting and why do you think it should sound like a film, why do you think you are Carry Bradshow. Has our world and its reality show pushed all of us to feel like we are 'somebody'?
My point : let them blog, if people need to express themselves, let them be. I even used an analogy (but it did not work very well) around brothel and sex, blogs are a bit like brothel, they enable people to have sex and may be less aggression.......
 
Hala was getting really angry about it as some people send her links to their uninteresting lives but to Richard's point, why does she open it.....According the Hala, some people introduce yourself as a blogger at a party, it is a bit much but some people write very well, like Kai. His blog is very well written! and i enjoy it and if i did not i would not read it, so leave people alone and leave them live their lives the way they want to.
 
As far as I am concerned i guess my blog is a souvenir of LA times and how it felt to be in America. I don't want to forget, it's too good!
