Those of you who have been around for a while have often heard me say that I wish I could tell all the stories of my crazy youth on this blog.
The idea behind this blog is a three-prong strategy.
1. To share all of my art and writing from my life, hence the really clever name.
2. To gain enough popularity that I could use this blog to impress publishers with my ability to fool enough people into thinking I am clever and getting them to read my words so that the publishers would take a chance and publish my funny sci-fi novel.
3. To have a place where my possible future grandchildren can go and learn about their grandpa to help them figure out why they are so freekin’ weird and all-art-side-of-the-brain and stuff, because one look at the pictures of my daughters I have posted will show you that I have really strong genes and my descendants are likely to end up with brains like mine, which is a little like a bunch of crack squirrels in a very small cage.
So I try to keep this a family friendly place where these future freaks of nature can come and read about me to help them figure out what is wrong with them… (I just throw in the funny Photoshop pictures because it amuses me and lets me blow off steam when politicians like Cheney and Romney piss me off)…
The problem with a family friendly blog is that it constrains me from telling a lot of the stories about my young, rebellious days.
For a long time I have been toying with the idea of doing a separate, more adult blog. I don’t mean a sex blog, although no doubt some of that would show up there as well. Just a place where I can be a little more upfront about my past.
If you like this idea, leave a comment. If I get enough positive comments, I might just do it.
Then I will leave the name of the new blog on a comment on your blog. That should be enough security to keep younger kids from finding out about it.
At the very least, I can get a few things off my chest.
Pouring My Art Out 
umm, now that you made the other one private, you gonna invite us in? LOL I have witty responses waiting to send thank you very much… 😉
How do I do it. I changed the privacy setting and no one can get in.
hmm, I think there is an invite thingy…. I’ll go see if I can find it for you
Thanks… I am such an idiot…
not an idiot… just WP challenged 😀
That’s the ticket.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/adding-users/#invite-people-to-follow-your-blog
I found that on wordpress… you ca just key in their usernames
I tried doing it in the blog… did it work. Was that you? I invited Tammy… I hope it was you.
It was me!!!!!!!!!!! 😀 the one and only… unless two of us show up. Then I don’t know what to tell ya. 😀
I di the tadams one and it worked I guess. I deleted the other imposter.
Yep, I be tadams,,, that’s why i be tadams4u.. get it? lol
I thinks so.
Do it. But don’t bring up the sex. I don’t need to imagine you naked.
You don’t need to… you just do… ha.
I love stories of people’s past! Make me realize that I wasn’t the only crazy one! Do it!
So far nobody has said no to me putting myself in this potentially emberrassing position. Thanks for the vote.
NO. Wait…. I meant yes! Yes! DAMMIT! I screwed that up. Stupid hanging chads.
You would be surprised at how many people have two blogs, one “regular” and one “super secret tabloid sex scandal what you did last summer”. So I think you should do it.
Not only that, but if you do it in a sort of focused way, THAT could become a book too.
Because I am all about the focus…
At best I could do it more of less in order…
But thanks for voting. Uh, is that a chad sticking out of your ballot or are you just glad to see me?
Yes…swing away.
Thank you, one more yes.
Yes, do it. Right away.
One more vote for yes. No votes for no so far.
Why are we wasting time talking about when we could be reading the dirt. DO IT.
Can I put you down as a yes?
I don’t like to make rash decisions under pressure. Maybe it’s too early to commit. Might not be prudent to lend my support to this endeavor… .
YES, YES, who has been harping on this all along???
The only rash decision there is to make is if you are going to use camomile lotion or something newer.
But yes, I admit you have been behind this idea from the beginning or earlier.
DO IT.
If I was running for President on this platform I would be kicking ass.
Hey dude, Thanks for having a look at my blog! I will be following you because you have some good stuff on here. 🙂 I am all for the separate blog. Honesty is very important these days and I commend you for wanting to share about your past. 🙂 God bless!!!
I am moved and touched by the fact that you want me to dig up the dirt before you have even had much time to see how much dirt I have already dug up. Thank you. That is another vote for the new blog.
i think you know what i think, but just for form’s sake; i think that this idea holds water, has legs and is going places….possibly to urinate…in a good way
Okey dokey
pig in a pokey
rinky dinky parlezvouz… or something.
it’s probably something
Oh you know it is.
i do….but i don’t like to brag
Since when?
it’s no good…..i can’t even remember…..i must like to brag…..
Well, a guy who has a picture of a big nut for an avatar, yeah.
a big germinating nut….if you please, sir
Well obviously.
i thank you
You are welcome, I’m sure.
bring it!
That is two votes on the plus side.
how can i not, i’ve already sunk in the sand 😉
Put your hands up… there is someone sinking down on top of you right now.
they just farted too…
Sorry about that. I should dig some more quicksand pits to cut down on the overcrowding.
yes yes you should!
I have been busy.
nothing’s more important!
more important than having enough storage space for my victims? I guess that’s true. I never really thought about it. You know, mess just builds up, clutter happens, then the next thing you know you are tripping over bones and half rotted corpses.
ya next thing you know…
I guess I could hire cannibals to help tidy up the place.
how kind..
Well a bulldozer just seems so impersonal.
you don’t say…
And it scares away new vict… members…
well you don’t want that we need more vict..members
The more members the more likely that some publisher will say ‘hey, this guy can write, so maybe his book is funny, and maybe all these people will buy a copy’. (Don’t tell them that I am giving all my followers free copies)…
for sure! i’ve published one on KDP about to launch my second with my new website. 😉
What, pray tell, is KDP? I am a computer moron, remember…
so am! Kindle Direct Publishing..
I think someone told me that if you use that you can’t sell to a paper publisher later. Maybe it was something else. I am trying the old school route first.
yes you can
See, I learn something everyday, whether I want to or not.
ha, very good young grasshopper!
Now let me burn the dragons into my forearms, you crazy old blind coot…
how about snakes, instead of dragons? i like snakes, i have a snake!
Is this a kung fu school or a pet store?
well like the pet store idea…
And that is exactly why only one of us can steer the horse at a time.
ya me!
Only if I get to come to your blog and ride your horse all over town.
i dare ya! 😉
sigh…
hmmm that was close to a “pft”
That is patented… I invented that… and SOL…(sigh out loud)…
groan
But I may steal that groan thing… that’s a good word… says a lot with a little.
but it’s also patented mine!
Then I shall invent a new word…
grigh
a combination of groan and sigh.
love it and if you feel like crying…grighing
We can make up a whole new language. No body else will have the slightest idea what we are talking about… oh… wait… they already don’t.
sigphtolpfgroagh…
ing…
…gni
exactly
As exact as these things get.
How did this conversation slide over to this post from my About post? No one knows what the heck we are talking about. I am trying to take a vote here…
ahaha that’s a very good question…what’s the vote?
Nobody has said no yet, but I am going to let it simmer for a few days. I hate to distract people from this blog when they are already too busy to read my oh-so-funny science fiction novel…
you mean trying to survive cannibals or farts….
Hey, my blog is about my whole life… and like life itself… no one gets out alive…
pft
It sounds like you are blowing a pigmy cannibal blowgun at me… makes me nervous… they are supposed to work for me.
yep that’s what i’m doing!
If they are poison tipped, you are going back in the quicksand…
i thought i was still in quick sand…
I saw you crawl out. I could have set the pygmies on you, but I relented because you amuse me.
darn caught, but i am amusing..
If you want you can direct other visitors that stumble in here to the fastest way out… just on the other side of the quicksand pool…
what if i don’t want?
I am not turning you into Igor, the hunch-backed lab assistant. I just thought as long as you are standing there it might be fun for you to direct people to their untimely doom.
well okay now that i think about it, it might be!
We really need to figure out who runs this here swamp. First one to catch 50 gators is in charge.
done!
Ha. I caught 6 on the way over here just for a snack.
fish tales…
Don’t make me post the pictures…
post away!
Oh ye of little faith.
who’s ye?
We are ye and he is ye and ye are he and we are all together.
have you been drinking? 😉
Did they ask the Beatles if they had been drinking when they stole that from me and made it into a song about egg men? I think not!
i think so
Ha… trick question… they were obviously on acid when they wrote that one,
exactly but being your site is family friendly, i didn’t say it….
Oh, crap, I got carried away didn’t I…. Ummmm… wait… not crap… I meant pooped…
or shucks…
That works.
or something a little stronger of the like..
Simmer down.
sigoaningrrr
Said the Italian pirate/tiger/opera singer…

pist…
que?
I just added a pee…uh… ‘p’ to your word. Instant humor. Just add liquid.
oh you so funny
It is a gift. I got it for myself last Christmas and I won’t let myself open it until next year.
good!
I fool myself like that all the time.

That is one for!
