Ignore Exception in C#

Sometimes in rare circumstances you really want to just ignore exception. What is the best way to do this? my approach is catch the exception but dont do anything about it. others?

                        try
                        {
                            blah
                        }
                        catch (Exception e)
                        {
                            <nothing here>
                        }

If you are going to just catch, not handle the exception, and ignore it, you can simplify what you have slightly.

try
{
   // code
}
catch
{ }

The above is for any exception, if you only want to ignore a certain exception but let others bubble out, you can do this

try
{
   // code
}
catch (SpecificException)
{ }

If you do ignore exceptions like this, it is best to include some comment in the catch block as to why you are ignoring the exception like that.
