My blog will now -- until it is unceremoniously pulled, that is -- be included as one of the "DIS Student Blogs" on the DIS website, which I am now required by contract to link to from this site (I have done it twice so far). Why subject myself to the strict guidelines set by DIS, you might ask? It's simple, really.
1) There is a cash prize for the best blog entry at the end of the semester.
2) I am desperately seeking new readers in the event that someone sees my blog and offers me a position as a travel writer, a profession that I have recently decided would be quite a lot of fun.
3) After reading some of the stuff whipped up by previous DIS students, I felt like providing a more entertaining (and informative?) view of good old Copenhagen.
Of course, this important shift from a net readership of approximately zero (0) readers per day to the incredible figure of several (3? 4?) readers per day does not come without its downsides. For example, DIS has standards about what constitutes acceptable content. Thus, my blog will no longer contain the detailed database of child pornography and links to terrorist websites that it once did. This is just one of the unfortunate sacrifices one has to make when selling out to The Man.
For those of you just joining us now, the previous paragraph contains what is known as sarcasm. And there's plenty more where that came from, so get used to it, Toots.
