Excuses for Not Writing

William Cowper, To His Cousin Lady Hesketh, Reasons Why He Could Not Write Her a Good Letter:
My pens are all split, and my ink-glass is dry;
Neither wit, common sense, nor ideas have I.
William Cowper, To Rev. Walter Bagot, Excuse for Delay in Writing to Him:
It is a maxim of much weight,
  Worth conning o'er and o'er,
He who has Homer to translate,
  Had need do nothing more.
My excuse is that I'm going out of town for a few days and probably won't have access to a computer.

In the meantime, try reading some of the blogs on the sidebar. Samples:
