Once upon a time, a new blog entered the Blogosphere. Called by its creator “Burt Reynolds’ Mustache,” it was meant to be a shining star in an otherwise dull, damp, dreary, humorless ocean of blogs. It was also meant to be a place where one could mix metaphors with impunity.
To achieve this end, the creator invited other humorous, talented bloggers to join him in this creative endeavor. His plan was that a different blogger would post each day of the month, forming a collection of posts unrivalled in both quality and humor. For a time, they succeeded.
As time passed, however, some of these gifted bloggers either quit contributing, died of salmonella poisoning, or took their talents elsewhere, presumably someplace where they would be paid for their brilliance. This left holes in the blogger lineup at “The ‘Stache,” as it had come to be affectionately called, and a call went out for more talented bloggers to fill the gaps.
A few answered, but not enough.
Apparently, the exodus of bloggers had also left the bar for inclusion really low; for some reason, I was invited to join. It is possible that several whiny, begging emails had something to do with it, but we’ll never know for sure. At any rate, on the sixteenth of each month, I shall be posting over at The ‘Stache. Today, in case you hadn’t noticed, is the sixteenth. As most of the people posting there have, like, friends and stuff, it would help me out a lot if you’d visit me there and leave a comment so I seem, like, more popular and stuff.
Some of you may remember The Case of the Unbalanced Ovum. Well, Part I has been published on another site, the International Society of Supervillains. Take a look, if you have a moment. It’ll make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, I promise.
Thanks, and I hope to see you there.
