GREATEST HITS

I've been a member of the blogger community for a year now. Time for a reflective look back at some of my more popular entries, voted on by ................me. Time for another example of my shameless display of self. I apologize to no one; neither for my self promotion nor my diminishing relevance. (My next post was going to be an open letter to Bob Elliott of "Bob and Ray" fame.)

Here ya go..............

So, here's the deal. I'm taking a hiatus; this blogging business almost seems like a job these days. I'll blog if so inspired, but me thinks the days of weekly entries are behind me. I don't have much more to say. I guess I've got writer's....something. (I can't think of the word.)

So, block some out some to reminisce with the blogs listed above. It's been fun.

And so it goes..............

  1. You can't take a break. I look forward to your blogs and already think they are few and far between. They make us all laugh, doesn't that count for anything?

  8. With all that weight you lost some of it must have taken your writing talent. Its called writer's block.. you don't have that.. you have " I am NOT the center of the universe with my fan club anymore.. I know... I will plot an escape .. a long vacation... from writing... and they will demand I return.. then!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have them in the palm of my hand"

    Well it worked... damn it.. it worked. Don't leave me hanging in the cruel world of humorless California... I NEED east coast humor.. Pleassssssssssssssssssseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

    Love YOU always ...

  9. Thanks for the warm responses. I'm assuming the anonymous ones are from my mother, who has apparently figured out how to respond from the beyond.

    Writer's block! Allegedly forgot the word, then used it in the next sentence. Clever, huh?

    Signing off....

  12. I remain a happy chappy; I cherish every day. Only trouble is, I've got nothing new to say.

    I suggest my fans devote their newly found free time to volunteer work.

  15. You should keep blogging. Julie is busy and not blogging as much and you fill the gaps between her blogs. Between the two of you I was staying very well informed. That is not the case now :(
