hi raincoaster. just passing thru. nice blog.
visit my blog at www. [edited, hahahaahaha].blogspot.com
where my blood pressure level can be managed easier than wordpress blog.
Wow, that’s a pretty productive day! :o
Twatted about on the electric internet and had a cup of coffee.
I did a Mila Mulroney: got up late, went shopping.
slept
1) that’s not a properly-formatted URL
2) wow, is that a plugin? Blood pressure moderation is an unusual blog feature.
Ian, I thought for a second you said “I did Mila Mulroney.” Nearly infarcted!
Archie, what’s that like? I forget.
Also: forgot to mention I moved a huge ladder off my patio, no mean feat as my patio is surrounded by a 10 foot wall and I can’t get the ladder out my door, so over the wall it had to go. Was supposed to help a neighbor move, but she wasn’t home.
In compensation, today I’ve read a vintage etiquette book, drunk a pint of beer, had a burger, and picked up the mail.
Newest blog rocks because of you, thanks L!
(this was a paid endorsement by the new blog people)
Woot! That’s the kind of testimonial I can use! Thanks!
Slacker!
I got dressed. Okay, I lie. I’m getting dressed. Soon. Ish.
Mmm. Still got this fuckin’ blog, eh? Does it get ya laid? Humph. When was the last time you had a really good pussy munch? Yikes! “Kubrick II” posts pretty soon. Keep checkin’ YouFuck’EmTube. That’s an insiders tip, Baby Cakes. (I can call you Baby Cakes, can’t I?) Oh, Christ, I love this new video. Stay Gold. – Atene
I stopped global warming and prolly pissed off some commenters on archie’s blog, too.
Oh yeah, did all that too, before breakfast. And where was the online Vanity Fair article after all that?
I forgot to mention what I actually did today. That was the point of the post. I (finally) finished a new video. Yikes.
Atene, do you have ANY idea how many emails and messages I get asking whether you’re alive or dead?
That would be alive, it seems. And somewhat oversexed.
What I meant was blogspot is easier to use than gnashing-your-teeth-tearing-your-hair WordPress. :)
Hope I got the url right this time.
No, you didn’t. Have you thought of trying Tumblr instead?
@atatkk– FWIW
Anita Bath and Diesel steered me to WorpDress, even though it’s not quite as user-friendly as Blogger. After my hair grew back I found I liked WP better. Once you get the hang of it (and it’s not that tough) there are more tweaks and options to mess with. WP kinda poo-poos advertising, though.
Dunno about Tumblr. I’ve seen several bloggers complain about it and eventually move to another platform.
The thing about Tumblr is it’s brain-dead but dead easy to use. You can’t fuck it up.
Sounds like a lame challenge for a pro-fuckerupper. Like me.
Give it a shot. No comments, six themes. No widgets. What’s to fuck up? Also nearly no users, out side of clove cigarette-smoking PBR drinking hipsters.
Ooh. That’s a tough one. I may have spoken too soon.
I guess I could always customize a theme and screw that up, or accidentally delete my blog after a few days. Or I could post something so offensive that even Tumblr would drop me. I could pull that last one off with ease.
Hipsters drink PBR? Guess I’ve been out of the loop. Maybe if I got a betelnut smoke and a 6-pak of lemon jack or something it’d help to crash the blogging platform that I don’t want.
Sounds like too much trouble for nothing, unless I get a sponsor.
Oh, and no advertising either.
Tumblr is blogging for OCD sufferers who also have anger management issues. It is the padded cell of the internet.
Not that I don’t have one:
http://raincoaster.tumblr.com
But I use it for dumping blog post material into, not actually writing the posts.
Oh, yeah. I’m alive. I just got offered some sort of video spot on a Comedy Central viral video show. The guy at Comedy Central said I was tough to find. He found me through my sister. Do my videos look choppy to you when you view them on my YouTube homepage using “Internet Explorer”? You can reply through YouTube or at my private email address. I trust ya. More details? View my message on my YouTube Channel. Thanks!
That’s awesome, congratulations! Don’t forget the little people!
Yes, IE does cause problems watching videos, particularly if your connection isn’t good. But there’s nothing wrong with your videos: it’s what he’s using to watch them that’s causing the problem.
