A short conversation with the husband
"You’ve spent four hours on that thing and haven’t even posted anything yet?"
"I’ve been working on the colors, I can’t decide."
"Ok, so you’ve spent four hours, and you’ve come up with green and blue?"
.......................................................................
......................................................................
"No, I only spent two hours coming up with green and blue. The other two hours I was deciding what color I think you should paint the bedroom. "
...................................................................
"That’s what I thought. Now just sit there and look pretty..."

I know that's really you, but I never dreamed you were married to Clint Eastwood....WoW! Hey, ask him if he remembers me from L.A. back in the late 60's. Remember I told you about my apt. next to Cisco's that Clint (I used to call him him "Stubby" because....well you know) that he and Dickie Smothers, and Jack King owned? He would use my apt. to crash after the bar closed cause he was usually in no shape to drive. Yeah, what memories....... I remember one time he intervined and saved my life when Frank Sinatra was on his way over to "see" me cause I dissed his daughter, the boot lady, Nancy. You see, she was in a group that came over to my place after hours and we kind of.....well, hit it off. So after a couple of hours, and one too many "Purple Jesuses" I made a remark (and you have to remember this was before I had perfected Snarkdom to it's current level of perfection) and she got pissed. I don't remember exactly, but legend has it that, while she was pretty, her face was pretty pock-marked. (After an hour of skinny dipping in my pool the makeup kind of wears off) Anyway, and I deny it to this day, but they swear it's true, I asked Nancy, "if I put my ear to your cheek would I hear the ocean?" Obviously the spoiled brat couldn't take a joke, shot home, and told "Frank."
Bottom line, tell "the husband," I owe him one.
Man, is there any one you DON’T have awesome stories about? I can’t believe you dissed the Nancy! I can’t believe you lived to tell about it. I hear the Rat Pack used to kill guys for less than that. Wow, you really should write your memoirs. And the Smothers Brothers! You know my sister and I still do the routine about how mother always like you best…you had a dog, all I got was a chicken. I loved the Smothers Brothers.
As far as the husband goes, I thought Clint was appropriate. The personality (read attitude) is exactly the same. In fact I actually caught The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly earlier tonight. It was really bad, but Clint was oh so hot!
Anyway, I did this post as sort of a test, just to see how things looked (even though the conversation really did take place). This setup is a little different than the other place, but much easier to work with and a lot more options.
Must put it to bed for now. Perhaps tomorrow I can spend another 4 hours deciding what links to put in!
First order of business....."A Business Plan"
You must answer the question....Why on earth, with 100 Gazillion sites, would someone click on yours? (for me the answer is simple. Ever since you greeted me with "BITE ME!" I was smitten. But that's just me.)
My suggestion: guest Bloggers. (I wouldn't think about links at this time)
For instance: I could do a weekly, more or less, post titled "So, you want to be humiliated?"....right this way>>>
I'm sure you know other bloggers with which you could cross post with. For instance, "wink", "wicked grin", "twitch, twitch".... Argon. I'll rack my brain for some people who would be willing to contribute. Needless to say, your readers would have to don armadillo suits to fully appreciate them. My cousin Rhoda just popped into my head. She's an aspiring writer, actress, social gadfy, with a circle of friends right out of Vaudeville's heyday.
Just a beginning.......stop me before I laugh myself into the hospital.
I think a "So You Want To Be Humiliated" column is definitely what this place is lacking!
Leave it to you to point out the obvious. And check your mail...
I would love to check my mail if the G__ D___ service was working, but it's been down for two hours. I wrote a long note to you that's been waiting since then. I'm able to get on now using my old a.t.&t. account, but the email was optonline. Dealer is probably sitting in a cave talking Farsi with Osama and trading Hudson River Bass for a couple of pregnant mountain goats. When he gets done saving America he better go to Oklahoma cause if he comes back to New York he'll find out what computer constipation feels like.
Don't mind me. I just feel so stupid when gadgets get the best of me.
Did I tell you you look especially beautiful tonight......er, this morning. Damn!!! I'm turning into Peter Rost
The doctors promised the medication would kick in by 6 a.m.
I',ll try later...........
I think my ears must be burning, is that what the "twitching" was for? I do better at *wicked grins* than twitches.
I'm not sure what you would cross post with me since my blog is more personal and philosophical but I could give it a shot if you wanted me to get involved.
I’m not quite sure what he means by cross posting. Is that where you take some else’s post and put it on your site? Heck I do that now and call it pilfering! Lol But Shooter has some good ideas, although we haven’t been able to communicate very well for a couple days because he’s having technical issues.
As far as being personal and philosophical, well we’ll have none of that here! Seriously, you have opinions and that’s pretty much the only thing we require around here. Perhaps we will do the guest blogging thing like Shooter suggested. Hey I only have so much cleverness in me, once that’s gone I just get silly. This thing is pretty much in the embryonic stage so I’m open to any and all ideas.
I'm not exactly sure what he means about cross posting either. Does he mean actually posting on each others blogs or just commenting on each others? Should probably ask him to explain it more fully when he gets his technical issues resolved.
If it's just commenting that would be a first for me since I haven't had any comments in the 8 months I've been doing mine. It's been more of a journal and a reference that I can show people what I've been working on.
Let me know what other kinds of participation you'd be interested in
