Hello, readers, and welcome to Framed, the magical blog that writes itself. This week we continue to bring in heavyweight talent in the person of Taylor Swift, America's most age-appropriate artist. Taylor's excellent videos have been featured in this space many times and have generally brought a thumbs-up from our enlightened readers. God bless America!
Our video is "The Best Day," which seems to be a tribute to her mom, Andrea, who's also prominently featured. The vid is a mash-up of old home movies that are probably more sweet than cloying, and you're sure to enjoy watching Taylor grow up right there on your computer screen. And, if not, there are always our captions to fall back on. Everybody likes them!
Please post what we'll later construe to be your thoughts, and be back here again next week, when Framed does the unimaginable!
Important blog notes #1 & #2! First off, let's honor another intrepid reader's excellent caption. This week it's Yahoo! Music User bringing home the bacon with this gem:
Sneako, The Sentient Sneaker, kept trying to escape his human captor, but to no avail.
Sneako, eh? Good stuff, User, good stuff! Congrats to everyone who's trying to improve on our work, and--by all means!--keep the alternate captions comin'!
And with that, we segue into readers' posts. We have a lot of respect for anyone who posts a comment here, mostly because Framed is a well-known hotbed of wit. In keeping with our long-established tradition, here's a few of your best posts over the last few weeks, along with our replies. We do this, of course, for the troops.
