Lindsey Lohan Is Pregnant

Something needs to be done with that paragraph (it is really not a paragraph at all in the strict sense of the word), but I think that it that I have performed my theory.  Form and meaning.  I've left a mess while speaking of such.  Brilliance.  Genius. 

Self-proclaimed. 

That is what a blog is anyway, right?  Self-proclomation. 

But what was I saying?  And so on and so forth. 

I think I'll title this "Lindsey Lohan Is Pregnant" and see how many hits I get.
