Who You Should Read When You Move to Connecticut From Sacramento
Being the egocentric narcissist I am, I don’t usually do testimonials to other bloggers. But look: there was this guy, Athol Kay, who’d occasionally pop by and comment on a post of mine. So I finally broke down and decided (in between glances at the mirror): gee whiz, great wonderful egocentric narcissist that I am, I can afford to take a slight vacation from this one-party orgy of self-admiration to read someone else besides me.
So I clicked on the handy backlink that Wordpress provided, and lo and behold, I became an Athol Kay fan. I mean, look at this Bad MLS Photo of the Day, for example, or any of the other ones. This is hilarious stuff. And look at these cute kids. No but seriously, this is all very engaging stuff.
I wish I could find out how to steal the Bad MLS Photo of the Day idea without looking like I stole it. Perhaps I could post it in French or something, and disguise myself under the pseudonym, Andre LaPlume. (Hey, it worked for Oscar Madison).
So anyway, I was poking around on this great Connecticut blog, and I thought I’d write about it, because I’d become a fan.
I thought this was important, because I remember how happy I was when I found out that after blogging ever since the Civil War, I had finally acquired a fan.
Back in the Civil war, we used to blog with telegraphs and muskets, if you must know. We were too busy fighting Johnnie Reb back in those days to give much thought to having fans.
So you should read Athol Kay if you move to Connecticut, folks. Or better yet, read me after you move to Sacramento from Connecticut. (I moved to California from Connecticut, as it happens, but we stopped in Santa Cruz and Cupertino before making it up here). But that’s beside the point. The point is, we totally have better weather.
Plus: we get to say “totally”.
