Blog Re-Branding Starts June 1

After much contemplation, the re-branding of Luke's Ponderings will begin on Tuesday, June 1, 2010. The re-branding, which was discussed earlier in the month, will feature a specific topic-oriented blog for each work week. Here's the breakdown of what you will see here for each day of the week:

Monday's will be U.P. Mondays in which I will discuss a topic relating to the Upper Peninsula. Believe me, I've only scratched the surface when it comes to discussing the U.P. on Luke's Ponderings over the years. With this new format, you'll get to learn more about the U.P. even more. On Tuesday's, I'm simply calling it Luke's Tuesdays. It's a day devoted to topics from the past, present, and future in my life. So in general, you'll get to read more about me.

Wednesday's will simply be called Television Wednesdays. I think this topic is self-explanatory in that it'll deal with TV topics. Now, it could be about a specific show, an actor/actress, an episode, or a TV recap. Whatever it is, it'll be a specific TV topic. As for Thursdays, this will be a day set aside for another entertainment related topic. Thursday's are Music Thursdays (aren't these titles great?). So I will be discussing a music-related topic on this day. I'll be bringing back the Songs I Dig blog in full force, except this time around I may just talk about one or two songs of my liking instead of the five I used to discuss. Plus I'll bring up songs from the past that I still enjoy and talk about singers/bands that have dropped off the face of the earth and try to track them down.

Last but not least is Friday. This day will be called Random Topic Fridays because it could involve just about any topic I want it to be! Hey, I've got to have some freedom on Fridays after all, the weekend is just around the corner. So yeah, who knows what kind of topic I'll have on Fridays. Just know that it'll be something interesting.

Now as for the Idol recaps, those will fall under Television Wednesdays when the show returns in 2011. However, when there are two performance shows during the semi-finals, there will be more than one TV blog for that particular week. We'll just call it an extra for that week. Also, there will be times when I feel the need to address a topic immediately rather than waiting for that certain day of the week to arrive. It'll most likely involve a breaking news event of some sort. Whatever specific topic that was supposed to be discussed on that day will be pre-empted until the following week, just like in TV. And lastly, weekends. It'll be a blog-free period for me as I re-charge my batteries for a new week! That's not to say I won't always have free time for myself on weekends, just time away from the blog on those two days. But don't be surprised if I throw something special in during a weekend from time to time.

So I hope you are excited about the proposed changes to Luke's Ponderings. It'll be a bit of a challenge for me to see if I'm up to the task of writing a blog for at least 20 days per month, something I have yet to do! However, never say never, and to see if it comes true, check us out on June 1 as a new chapter begins here at Luke's Ponderings! See you then (as well as sooner, too)!
