I want to break the all-time record for the most comments on a WordPress blog post.
*** PLEASE COMMENT ON THIS POST ***
Okay, some of you will see this as a shallow attempt on my part to bump up my stats.
And I’m not saying you are wrong.
But here’s the thing… oh, thing, I missed you, where have you been?
I have always said that I have the best commenters on WordPress. I have two posts that have over 1,000 comments on them… True, half of those are my return answers to comments, because I always answer my comments, but still… And I will even go so far as to admit that my comment sections… OUR comment sections… are sometimes the funniest part of my posts. Are you happy now?
But this all has me wondering what the record for number of comments on one post actually is. I want to see if we can break it. Just for the fun of it. We will all be part of a social media experiment. We will all go down in the history books as record breakers. We can amaze and astound the WordPress overlords and maybe have them take notice of us.
And it will be fun.
Oh, and I am a little disappointed that only one person even commented on that cute picture of me as a baby in the last post I did, so here is your chance to make it up to me…
Pouring My Art Out 
Less than 700 to go till 40,000 already!
Well, the pace is killing me. I have to take a break soon. I have to go look for a missing porn movie on the internet some ex-husband shot of his wife years ago and otherwise tend to my blog.
HA! I wouldn’t put it past him! I think it was in the middle of a marathon of Get Smart on VHS tape if that helps..
the retro…
i was so worried that my dad would watch it…. he loved Get Smart!
I still want a shoe phone.
how bout a cone of silence?
My head would never fit in one.
A bone of silence in a cone of silence? Naw.
my bone is never silent!!!
A new Julie added to the story line.
new and improved?
“So it would seem.” Captain Norrington-Curse of the Black Pearl
other people have said that
There are time when I strive for brevity, believe it or not. A single attribution seemed sufficient and succinct.
I do not use caps or periods when I am answering a lot of comments
A re-enactment would save me so much more time so if you could just…well, perhaps not. Never mind. I’ll get to you later though.
you never give up
Hey, I haven’t even left second gear yet. All in fun my friend. She knows it and so do I. It’s all that cheap booze you keep feeding us here in this singles bar.
it is all fun and games until someone puts an eye out… or gets a restraining order…
As long as it’s only a “T” RO.
sure
WHO PUT AN EYE OUT>???? MEDIC!!
It was a near miss.
Hey, I haven’t even left second gear yet. All in fun my friend. She knows it and so do I. It’s all that cheap booze you keep feeding us here in this singles bar.
ahhh… you said that already
no camera man left. sorry…
HA!
still, no camera man… sorry…
Camera person…
You do know my technical background, don’t you? I mean, my Gift 1 post should make it pretty clear. I mean if that’s the only problem. Just sayin’..NEVER QUIT. NEVER GIVE UP. IMPROVISE AND ADAPT.
Like Wile E. Coyote…
Acme instant cameraman kit.
just paint it on
I thought you sounded a little professional….
Professionally flirty and commenty
A LITTLE? A LITTLE? *fuming and fretting*
ha
Poor Wile E.!
He had a tough job
Poor Wile E. indeed.
he gets by
A re-enactment would save me so much more time so if you could just…well, perhaps not. Never mind. I’ll get to you later though.
cameraman??….???
camerahuman
I am bad with that stuff. I was a mailman once. It was hard to retrain myself to use letter carrier instead. The mailman delivers the mail. A mailman can be a woman. I use kleenix to blow my nose. The brand might be Puffs, or Scotties but I call it kleenix. I was a mailman that used kleenix.
A female male-man…
Not Gonna.
really?
“Maw, go get the Brownie and take a Kodak of the kids.”— Keep you metaphors on topic please.
I sort of got that
RE PC naming of common things. Mail man-person, Kleenex-tissue Camerman-person, She had been talking about the lack of a cameraman. So, in keeping with the camera metaphors: Brownie-camera, Kodak-picture Edison-phonograph. Got more miles on my odometer, dude.
I have a long story about political correctness run amuck and costing me a grade…
We had a couple Brownies! My dad also was a professional photographer for a couple days I think…
mmmmmmmm … brownies…
Within the professional skill set.
ha
Will you stop being bad and blaming me??
Not blaming you. Just pointing out I can operate a camera, video or film. Take your pick. That doesn’t have to be a deterrent.
yeah
Darn it! did it again!
ha
You don’t need a cameraman when you have a cameraDan.
oh lord
Hangin’ in there. Still in it to win it.
good luck
Havin’ a ball. Speaking of hanging *Art cringes*, I have to go hang out in my own playground for a while. I need to reply to a comment a work up a follow up post. Later, dude.
don’t get worked up… ha
HAHAHA! Diver Dan!
sigh
See. It ain’t just me. It’s the girl too, Dad.
“Will you stop being bad and blaming me??”
That’s where it was supposed to be!
Why not ask me to stop breathing too? I’m like a shark swimming to stay alive. Being bad is in my nature.
auto-correct
I understand about the pace, and Art was right you stepped right up and carried the ball in a very Trent like fashion. You added fun and humor to this little social experiment. You haven’t been here from the beginning have you? I think I found it fairly early on in its existence, and I would think you would have caught my eye before this.
You are a good playmate! 🙂
once again, I have answered every one of the comments both of you made… and some others… and the regular blog ones…
yet another reason for my love for you!!
If only the whole world felt that way…
Your lot in life.
I have a lot of lots… lots and lots of lots.
so, that means this post has roughly 15,000 actual comments??
Yes, but since they… wordpress… counts all of the blog stats the same way, the record number is still the record number.
It doesn’t matter, you got it. Regardless of what wordpress won’t acknowlegel
I think we do got it
Yeah, sure. Whatever it takes to get you through the night, dude.
it does
Impugning now, is she?
implanting maybe
No she doesn’t. That’s a guy thing.
uh
you know, I consider myself a pretty smart cookie, with a decent handle of the language (dictionary word of the day even!) and stuff. You have made me look something up more than I’d like to admit. You ARE smart!
Naw. Just well read from a very early age. I had a grade school education that strongly stressed language skills and reading. I do admit to having an above average vocabulary though. It’s just the way I talk. When I blog i do sometimes tone things down a little. I don’t want to alienate the reader. I’m sensitive about that. Now if they just give me by damn blog back today.
Oh you like big words do you?
Seisquapadillian. I probably didn’t spell it right, but it’s a big word for people who like big words. 🙂
Sesquipedalian to be precise. Chock full of Latin derivations. A fittingly euphonious appellation indeed.
it sure is
On ***COMMENT HERE***, I have just popped in and out depending on what was going on at the time. Having a blog does require some attention, thus my not getting to you yet while blowing the day here. I have been commenting on Arts blog a little over a year I suppose. He could tell you exactly by my follow date in his stats. When I wasn’t busy we used to tear it up every day all day. I’ve had to back way off from that for now. Last night and today were special.
Part of the special is you. You’re a good playmate too lP, and you keep things in perspective. I’ve been burned once by a commenter who misunderstood and took a comment in the wrong way. It didn’t turn in to a battle between us and was gracefully handled by the author. I just don’t interface with them at all. If their handle appears in any comment.at any time on any subject, I keep out. They seem to stay away from me too. We didn’t discuss it, we just do it.
You gots to watch yo interfaces
omg. where the hell is that?? Mine must be lost and could be in DANGER! wtf? why didn’t anyone warn me??
uh… I just did
***WARNING*** Do not let your face be intered.
word
I do. I haven’t and won’t ever darken her digital doorstep again as you may have noticed.
things get taken out of context…
I think it has been handled perfectly since then.
sure it has
you know what Dan? You are a funny guy and I like you. I wish nothing but puppies and rainbows for your life!
Puppies riding on rainbows…
Arthur. Gotta wonder where this is going? Puppies and rainbows? Sounds pretty beta to me.
what… no unicorns?
Great. now I have to go and look. Thanks a lot. didja see my fight with myself? or my expert flirting? Or the time I just had to talk to myself cause no one was here?? I did some epic stuff here. I should get an award or something
You really should… I should break down each of the major players and do highlight posts of their best work.
Good. You’ll be out of our hair for a while.
hey now
I think that is a very good idea. I still think the book is a good idea too. There is a lot here that is very very funny but I don’t think a lot of people care to do all the scrolling around to hunt it down.
well…. neither do I, really
Surely a trophy of sorts is in your future.
A sort of a trophy of sorts…
Well then, go an a trophy sorting sortie and see what sort of trophy you can sort out.
I have a friend who has a trophy wife… I mean, not a first place trophy… but still
Well, boo hoo. Do you have any idea of how many pages of porn are on the internet and being added daily. And the only clue I get is Get Smart and ice cubes. I guess I can Google the two in quotes and whittle it down to about 2 million of so.
How did we end up back at porn???
Because she said, “Great. now I have to go and look. Thanks a lot.” She wanted me to hold her hand while she did a search but was NOT giving me ANY help with my search beyond Get Smart and ice cubes. It’s all the girl’s fault..
oh
Actually, no. No I do not have any idea. Know why? I have never bothered to look. And I doubt Get Smart will be of any help in the search.
Exactly. Point made. If you are on the internet it is such an infinitesimal chance that you will be seen by anyone you know unless your ex clued them on where to go. ♫♪ Don’t worry. Be happy.♫♪ Notes just for you, Girl. You can C&P them from right off this comment. I cut them into chunks when I post and reconfigure them. ala ♫♪♫♫♫♪♪♪♪♫♪♫♫
I bet there is an adult movie based on that show.
I do like to have my hand held… This is true. As long as it’s not too hot and sweaty and slimy.
Can I lick the icing off you fingers?
Why would your hand be hot and sweaty and slimy???
not MY hand. The hand that is holding my hand. I often lick my fingers before washing my hands. I am working with someone else’s food after all…
Those aren’t diet fingers with all that icing you know.
that makes more sense… the first part, I mean
Pssst… shhhhh It’s Dan’s fault. I think he might have some kinda sickness. shhhh.
He’s hoping for something to cripple my typing ability.
At the very least.
If the porn involves baked goods or frosting, I am putting you on time out.
Nope. An allusion to another time and place. Inside joke.
phew
it was quite a while ago, there may or may not have been ice cubes involved…..
cool… ha!
See. See. Did I keep this going? NOOOOOO. Next is the coy, “Moi?” with the finger poking in the cheek and the surprised raised eyebrow innocent thing.
You always end up in these situations
I beg your pardon. I am not in a situation with my end up.
in you endo…
Just done. Got another 10 years to go before next time.
oh boy…
wait. who is on time out? Me? or Dan? (he prolly deserves it… just sayin..)
Him, not you, and he wiggled out of it.
Well, if your gonna keep me from wiggling in…
I don’t keep you from doing anything
Looking at the greasy bottom of the bus all of a sudden.
hahaha
Don’t tread on me.
the wheels on the bus go round and round
uh… even I know that ain’t good math
Ok, 40,000 here we come!
50,000
I’ll see your 50,000 and raise ya 50,000. One Hundred Thousand.
sooner or later
You’ll have to cut work the next time. Art and I had to do all the heavy lifting without you. You missed the champagne with the little umbrellas and the bacon-wrapped, crab and lobster-stuffed portobello mushrooms. Yummy. We were going to save you some but we ate both trays anyway since we decided that they really wouldn’t reheat all that well and we didn’t want you getting sick off of them. We’re thoughtful like that. Yeah, we are..
The mushrooms would have been all mushy
So we WERE being thoughtful in eating them all and not saving any for you?
it’s all true
Oh, I see. You show up and Art brings out the good stuff. The rest of us minions get dog treats. Bacon flavored if we behave. And we like it. Hey, where’s Jennifer? this calls for a hat dance!
He paid for it out of his own pocket… I never spoil the minions…
That’s what fickle gets ya.
yup
AHHHH, SO EXCITED. Your post made history, Art!
we are still making history…
That’s what I meant.
phew
DAMN! IT’S DONE PLUS 5. 30,005. iN IT TO WIN IT BUDDY..
I need to do a post
you should prolly do a post Art. No one likes a blog with out a post…
at least, that’s what I hear.. or thought. nevermind. I don’t have a clue to what I am talking about… just ignore me… lookit! a squirrel!
leave the squirrels alone
Post toasties.
Yeah, so you should start writing some now for YOUR BLOG!
are you really Trent in Dan clothing???
You never see them at the same time…
uh huh…I think I may be onto something…
uh oh
Don’t be getting on my something.
it’s nothing, really
The two personalities fight over whose turn it is to wear the cape. Neither wants to wear the tights. Too confining. BA DA BING
But they look so good on… never mind
You’re supposed to wear clothing when you blog?
says who
Exactly. What he said. Firing up the web cam right now. CameraDan is on the air. “i’m out there and lovin’ it..” Kramer-Seinfeld.
make up your own quotes dang it
I could always steal yours. No, wait. I’ve already done that.
I’m okay with that… everybody should do it… all the time…
I thought this blog was clothing optional??
it is. Just friends being friends with friends in a friendly way. I so love playing with words.
Everything is clothing optional if you don’t mind getting arrested now and then.
oh yeah
OK Art, I give up. I’m not one to get involved with record breaking, but you’ve worn me down. I give up – here’s a comment.
is that sarcasm or irony???
pssst… Hi Paul!
whee
There she goes. Flirty, flirty.
Friendly, friendly.
That’s telling him.
She is a social butterfly
She does like to randomly flutterby.
yup
oh. I see. because I am female and I say “hi” to someone I am flirty?? What if I told you my name is really Julian and I am a man? Then what? ‘Sup dude? (said while straightening out my junk)
I sort of hope that is really true… because that would be funny…
No one really knows but me now huh. My secret identity and my secret blog.
Me and my monkey… or shadow… my shadow monkey
Great movie. Two bloggers make a date to meet and when they show up they are the same sex. The problem is they don’t want to end the realtionship but they are not homosexual, lesbian or bi. Now what? Kind of like Charles Durning and Dustin Hoffman in Tootsie but now develop that relationship further. That could be very funny and very poignant at the same time if deftly directed and acted.
who plays who?
Hang on just a minute. I’m being serious. Imagine You’ve Got Mail turned on its head. Two people looking for intimacy, NO NOT SEX, who find themselves falling in love via the internet. Maybe it started as a fraternity prank or a dare for one of them, but as it progressed that need was being met. Now you meet. How do you handle that? Throw that intimacy and friendship away and go back to loneliness or reshape the relationship into a hetero relationship that survives the initial deceit and grows?
It has actual possibilities
Absolutely it does.
I said so didn’t I?
Does this mean I have to start paying attention?
Ha… double comment score again.
Does this mean I have to start paying attention?
no… and anyway, my hair looks grayer… the gray ones were hiding underneath.
ok, who do we sell this to??
Gotta write it first. At least a synopsis.
The hallmark channel?
Get your junk straight every chance you get, Julian dude. Life may be short, but not your junk.
long lips and long junk?
I do Dan, I do. And how exactly do you know about my junk?? Is my camera on again??
What? Tell you and spoil all my fun. Just go look under Get Smart on the internet and see.
He never turned it off
reunion time…
My second favorite is the Beatles’ slightly melancholy In My Life. It used to be my ringtone but the phone ringing when I’m busy annoys me and I was beginning to be bothered by the song so I quit using it.
Now I feel like I really know you
Wide but shallow. A mile wide and an inch deep.
please tell me we are talking about something metaphysical here…
Me. My persona on this blog.
phew
Any Beatles is good for me. Love ’em! If there’s anything that you want, If there’s anything I can doooooo, just call on me and I’ll send it along with love, from me to you!
can’t go wrong with the classics
NEVER!!~~ What gifted boys they were!
true dat
Don’t be teasin’ now..
Listen, ooo aaahhh oooo, do you want to know a secret?
of course
Do you promise not to tell anyoneeeeee? Closer, let me whisper in your ear doo whaa doo…..
do wah diddy diddy dum diddy dooo
Remember the teaching scene at the start of Stripes where that was the tool for teaching English? So funny. “Sh*t. Sonofb*tch” and Do Wah Diddy.
I wasn’t in that scene. I was in the bus depot departure scene when they were shipped out to basic.
Basic Army training, Sir.
Murray and Ramis where horsing around with Oates on set one day and threw him in a deep mud puddle after a scene at Ft. Knox. His dental partial broke and he was not a happy camper the rest of the week..
awwww
That tickles.
sigh
and what could be more secret than telling a secret here?
Nothing. cept maybe on that other post that only you and I can see….
I keep forgetting
Uh oh. I saw NUTTING, Herr Kommandant.
you saw what? I was nutting nobody
Das sekret blog page.
Okay, Shultzie
Nobody knows, just we two.
if even that
I got arms that long to hold you and keep you by my side, I got lips that long to kiss you, and keep you satisfied OOOOO
I do like long lips.
Lips that long, huh? Chi to SD. A mental image I didn’t need.
really?
what lips were you imagining Mr??
careful
Well, you said “and lips THAT long to kiss you” and I was observing lips that long would have to stretch from Chicago to San Diego to kiss Art and that was quite the odd image. Do I have to draw pictures too?
Lose lips sink ships, but long lips can refloat them…
yeah, it stinks when I step on em.
oh…
giraffe lips?? giraffe have very talented lips.
yeah they do… uh… I have fed one… just so you know
I have too!!! Plus I held on to the carrot and he pulled my hand into his mouth! I was a little afraid of getting bitten but I didn’t. I only got giraffe spit. It was so cool! They aren’t really very friendly unless you have carrots for them.
They are downright mean.
But only if I have blond hair and blue eyes.
just a preference. The ex had very dark hair, but light eyes.
Mix it up.
So there’s still a chance?
ha
She has a type…
yeah, I do. Single, employed, with teeth.
I have teeth… two of them… I mean, they aren’t mine, but I wear them around my neck on a piece of string…
Got two out of three goin’ for me.
you have teeth???
well, that’s not exactly what I meant but ok, you fit ONE of my criteria….
whee!
ha
ART!! THE NEXT VERSE!! IT DISAPPEARED! Spam??
nevermind, it showed up….
oh joy
possibly
or wordpress has standards…
yeah, really strict ones that won’t allow the secret of the post with the most comments.
those bastards!
I’ve got a secret that nobody knows, just me n yooooooooou!
And a cow named Moo
I’m a big Sinatra fan. My all time favorite song is Young at Heart.
You did it your way
How spooky and freakingly appropriate that your “did it my way” comment was 30,000.. Congratulations Arthur!
Thanks… and thanks
Da nada, compadre.
still…
That Sinatra comment was 29, 999 and your “[my] way” comment turned the odometer over to 30,000. It was a good night. I was wondering if you were going to show in time so I stopped at 29, 967 and went on hold. Sorry Julie, Trent, X and a bunch of others weren’t here for it. Oh, well, They can be here for 40K. “To infinity and beyond” Buzz LIghtyear-Toy Story
I think there is a lag in the counting system… even when I look at it it says something else in a few places at the same time
I understand your argument, but when I commented 006, I refreshed the page and it showed AT THAT EXACT MOMENT 30,006 comments POSTED ON THE BLOG. I counted down to Sinatra at 099 and the recounted up to confirm and that was the story. You were 30,000. Yeah, after that you did some replies that visually skewed the results, but the time stamps clear that up.
I believe in your computer-box magic,,,
Thems the facts, Jack.
that is my bother’s name
Night and day
You are the one
Only you beneath the moon
And under the sun
Whether near to me or far
No matter, darling Where you are
I think of you
Night and day
I am blushing
Julie will read that and be jealous of you after so much talk from me about the night and the stars. She’ll just have to get over it. After all, she always has her Trenty, whom as usual is not here for the party. Oh, well. More for us. Pop another top.
Team effort… okay… good night, and have a pleasant tomorrow…
I am. The post is doing really well with the ladies in the community which pleases me. I also got a hit from Oman, 8 views actually which likely means some idividual is reading the crap out of the blog.
I rad all of it but the crap
Crap?! What crap?. You mean the stuff that others find interesting if not endearing. That crap?
It was just a bad joke…
Same here.
oh well
I see how you are Dan. Flip me for Art.
Please don’t fight over me…
ever body wans ya Art……
it is a gift… and a curse…
How about standing on top of you while fighting?
how does that help
Or instead of. Well, there’s an intriguing proposal. Bottoms up.See if that gets past the Letterman Show censors.
omg.
yup
depends what she is wearing when you flip her.
Okay. I’m standing pat. No more cards for this hand. I’ll just play the ones showing. Is it hot in here?
new deck…
cake. Chocolate cake. the one I jumped out of for Dan’s surprise party.
A pastry treat. Chocolate iced buns. The mouth waters.
sounds like a medical condition…
Not to worry. I’ve had all my shots.
good to know
But if you’re not too busy, you can pour me another.
consider it poored… ha
it is hot in here
Nothing but a smile??
that works too…
That’ll definitely do lP.
…..ooooo00000
Like the beat, beat, beat of the tom tom
When the jungle shadows fall
Like the tick, tick, tock of the stately clock
As it stands against the wall
Like the drip, drip, drip of the raindrops
When the summer show’are is through
So a voice within me keeps repeating
You, you, you.
You aren’t the first to go stir crazy in here… it’s the echoes…
What…what…….what……..what………..what……………what……………..what……………….what?
ha
This cannot be right. Too quiet for too long. I sense a WP malfunction or email screw up.
or dinner time
Re an earlier comment: You are a city boy then, since it wasn’t supper. Right Julie?
or a dog… It seems when the dog food bowl gets filled there is a mention of dinner time..

I am unteachable.

Whose a guy gotta see to get a drink around this singles bar, and where are all the babes?
that might be a good question
I have little time to waste on bad ones.
and yet here you are on my blog
Ironic, isn’t it?. And just a little sad. *sniff*
It could be worse… couldn’t it?
Naw. 🙂
sigh
No one knows what its like to be the sad man, to be the bad man, behind blue eyes. Are your eyes blue Dan?
love that song
Would that seal the deal?
oh my
I am a sucker for blue eyes… I like light colored eyes. I like eyes of all colors, but I think blue is my favorite. My dad had beautiful baby blues….
My eyes change color… blue… green… blue/green… brown… brown/green/blue…
It was just on the radio. How appropriate. You can leave your hat on. that’s playing now. WXRT in Chicago.
WKRP in Cincinnati
I think a lot of light colored eyes change from blue to grey to green, I used to think it worked with mood, but I think in reality it has more to do with the colors you’re dressed in and the lighting and such…
or magic… did you ever read my poem called: my eyes?
and long blonde hair Dan. That would seal the deal. definitely.
I had long hair… it was more light brown… but it was really long…
I saw a photo. the one with the wardrobe malfunction.
Oh yeah…
I take it you are talking about Art’s Photoshop work with my gravatar.
Or do you mean my famous ‘red shirt’ picture where I invented the wardrobe malfunction.
That would have been the one but sending that comment was a miscue and not germane to any particular current comment.
These things happen… are you back, or just checking out… or in… or a ship passing in the night… with loose lips…???
Just didn’t want you wondering what that comment was all about. I know how you can loose your reference point with all the input. It ain’t gonna be that long. My schtick was getting old and wearing a little thin and it was time to give everybody a break. I’ll be back for the late night show when the tables have turned over a few times and there’s new faces in the crowd. Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, I’ll walk into yours. It’s time to be hang out in that phone booth for a bit. Later. Be of good cheer, friend.
okay
Babe?? the talking pig?? Baaaa Raammmm Eweeeeeeee.
HA!
That’ll do pig.
uh oh
HA! “little” pig
…ooo000ooo…
I love how softly Farmer Hoggett speaks that line to Babe.
you spend a lot of time watching movies
Not really, I have seen a lot of movies. It’s a modality thing with my brain. You put visual and auditory together in moment of high emotion and it really sticks with me. No matter what the emotion portrayed. Neurolinguistics at work.
well… you should like my original songs then… and remember them forever…
“little” pig it is then. LP A term of special endearment.
sure it is
It was certainly a touching and endearing part of the movie!
you were moved by an animated pig… think about it…
I’m a sucker for an animal.
Squids and octopi have suckers already.
unless its like Jaws or Cujo or something

Uh. Uh. I get it It’s a surprise party for me and in a few more comments everybody is going to jump out of hiding and say, “SURPRISE!!!” Okay. I’ll act surprised when it happens,
ACTING!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! SURPRISE!!
It’s my party… and I’ll comment if I want to
Imagine that. Are you the stripper they were sending? Just wishin’.
nevermind that now, help me get all this cake offa my body!
ohhh… stripping cake off your body… now that is an act!
No utensils allowed or napkins. All hand work and finger licking.
an art form in itself
I was a professional stripper… do a search… I dare you…
I don’t believe you.
It is all right there in a post somewhere
Actually, I don’t doubt it a minute.
why would you?
I still have a blog post to get out tonight if at all possible. Where is everybody.?
sorry, but you are like the new Trent, if that makes you feel better
Less numbness in my fingers would make me feel better.
I have carpal tunnel syndrome from this post… I have done half of the comments
Well, that certainly explains the quality issue.
when it was really busy I couldn’t keep up
I have carpal tunnel syndrome from working over 30 years in a bakery.
We have an Asian run bakery near us. They don’t do anything uniquely Asian but they make a nice fatty apple fritter. Yummmmm. Having said that, I wonder if some American or European baked goods are Asian in origin. I suspect many Greek things are if involving nuts, honey and fruits. Sorry. That’s just the way my mind works. My wife always responds with, “Honey, nobody cares.”
Makes you wonder why men don’t have carpal tunnel in their dominant hand. I mean…. Yeah, I said that. ;P
I have it from doing 15,000 + comments.
here, lemme see, I do a lot of work with my hands….
uh………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. you already have the job…………………………….
Puhleeze, Julie girl. *300 Joules. Clear. ZZZZAP. Okay. He’s conscious again*

You are so very bad, girl..
bad girls bad girls… what you gonna do..
Just finished it while WAITING ON YOU!!!
don’t get snippy
sorry, I had to work. I see you guys just went ahead without me.
that sounds so wrong
Us guys are handy like that, though.
well…………
If loving you is wrong, I don’t wanna be right.
no… you do not…
I did get the post published and it seems to be well received for what I am advocating. Check it out, SINCE YOU HAVEN’T BEEN THERE YET TODAY. 😦
okay fine…
Oh, really? do you know for a fact that I have not been there yet today? do you? I didn’t think so!
I know I have

a lot to read. I looked already.
words are sacry
one at a time.
One at a time, they are a T-Rex… in groups, they are a pack of raptors…
I absolutely love words and playing with them. Sadly, I have waited too long, missed too much, offered not enough, and left too little.
are you double tapping these comments?
Not that I’m aware of but I do read and comment from my email instead of the WP reader most of the time. Email could be the problem.
I guess it is adding to the score… so
I absolutely love words and playing with them. Sadly, I have waited too long, missed too much, offered not enough, and left too little.
I like to watch while you play with your words… oh man… I just crossed some sort of a line… I usually don’t see the line… but I see that one…
she is the strong silent typist
Very good allusion. Are you exceptional at “Before and After” on Jeopardy. That was a very complex association. Most people would only see the verbal trick with the spin of strong silent type to typist and totally missed the cross-reference to The Duke’s persona. Very good indeed.
I have levels… like an onion… I also have a theory… if you watch Jeopardy every day for a week with someone, you get an idea of, if not how smart they, at least if they are paying any attention or not to the world.
It just wasn’t the same though…quieter, peaceful, thoughtful….No. It wasn’t the same. 🙂
it was slower
S l o w e r?
oh, yeah
awww….. you missed me!
it is never the same here
Yeah, I did. What can I say. I’m just a sucker for a pretty interface.
(:-})
So that means you work nights and our date under the stars won’t be happening? Boo hoo.
the stars are still there… you just can’t see them
I work a lot. I don’t often work nights tho, only when the boss wants to punish me. I average 65 hours a week.
so do I… I mean… not at work… but… yeah
Waaay too much work. What do you do?
office mgr full time, small family owned business, and grocery store bakery. I mostly decorate cakes and stuff these days.
big enough to climb out of?
So you are good at working with your hands then. A lot of squeezing and rotating involved there. Requires flexibility, creativity and artistry too. What’s not to like about that? My kingdom for a pastry bag of butter cream and thou.
I am going to start a matchmaking blog…
firestarter.wordpress.com
that works
Yes. lots of squeezing. some of the buttercream can be pretty stiff. During busy weekends we might do 70-100 special orders on top of the ordinary work.
Arhritis would not be your friend there, or carpal tunnel. Have you ever tried using heavy cream to “thin” the butter cream at home. YUMMMMMY? Sound like a pretty good sized grocery bakery department. I love apple fritters. There used to a bakery, you do remember Mom and Pop bakeries usually operated by eastern European immigrants, the made the “pretzel” pastries. They would twist this really thin string of dough into a pretzel and then deep fry it and lightly glaze it. The best part was the bag-staining greasiness of the pastry. High fat goodness.
oh boy
It really is tasty and not as prone to destruct like true butter cream. Can’t be hanging out in the heat all day though.
sweaty dough doesn’t rise as well
We are talking Icing sir, NOT Schweddy Balls.
It’s all icing on the cake… or balls… or something
It really is tasty and not as prone to destruct like true butter cream. Can’t be hanging out in the heat all day though.
why are there two of all these???
WHAT? You have something against pastries?
No, I have something against people putting their private parts against pastries.
No Long Johns for you, then?
uh… not in San Diego… no
That may be the sexiest thing anybody ever typed on my blog
mummmph! (somebody’s gotta do it)
yeah… somebody…
careful now
Whip Cream on the other hand… and shoulder….and a little on the side of the neck…..
Stop that lP. Behave. Now every time I see whipped cream I’ll get a tingle. The best part is watching it ooze out of the nozzle after a thorough shaking of the container.
dude…
I should write skits for comedians.
I think Dana Carvey follows me on Twitter to steal my material.
So you’ve said.
I forget who I say what to
I quit paying attention long ago. Where am I?
How should I know
Is this the stop for the cross-town bus. It’s rainin’ and it’s cold.
gonna get colder
and sprayed in a mound with a nice cherry on top. Perfection No stems for me, thank you..
It all stems from sex… that’s what Freud said…
There you go.
I’m going there alright
oh my
I had a doberman who loved when the whip cream can came out! I’d shoot it directly into his mouth then run around screaming “mad dog! mad dog!” hahahahaha!
awesome
I can tie a cherry stem into a knot in my mouth. Just sayin.
You just keep poking the monkey, don’t you…
Yeah she does. See! I told you. It’s not me. It’s the girl.
I can’t take sides…
Well it does show a definite talent for things lingual to be sure, but it also conjures up thoughts of potential discomfort. OUCH!
oh man
what? sometimes the bag “spits” and whip cream flies everywhere! When you refill and don’t get all the air out.
I hate it when that happens…
Flyin’ whip cream dreams *sigh*
sounds like a 1960’s band
Remember that Herb Alpert and TJ Brass album cover with the whipped cream?? Oh yeah.
I do…
mummmph! (somebody’s gotta do it) this was supposed to go here! See?
I see now
“you gotta keep poking the monkey don’t you”
That still makes me laugh even after I have read it a dozen times. what? What did I do? I simply shared the fact that I can tie a cherry stem into a knot in my mouth? Do you mean you never tried that?? I can hang a spoon on my nose too. I suppose you have never tried that either.
See. See! Innocent moi?? Then she tries to change the topic by hanging a spoon on her nose.
That isn’t the point
Well, I thought it was interesting anyway.
yes… you did
It’s interesting how country people call lunch dinner and the last meal supper.
and soda is ‘pop’
or Pepsi.
indeed
POP! There’s a yankee in our midst. How about a nice frappe instead of a milkshake?
do not be afraid of culture…
Obviously not. I’m here aren’t I? BADDA BING
ouch
Sarsaparilla!! or is it Sarsaparilly?? ala Yosemite Sam.
well played
Wanna know why?? because they ate their largest meal (dinner) at lunchtime. Then back out to the fields to work it off. Supper wasn’t as big a deal. Just to get you thru the night. City folk do it opposite. We just eat at my house. Hungry? ok, let’s eat something.
Hey, I worked on a tobacco field in Kentucky
When and where did you stake and hang tobacco?
Cynthiana, Bourbon County Kentucky… 1977 or 1978
I used to live on a Kentucky estate that had a tobacco base. Nasty work. Stickery and sticky and tobacco worms.
hardest work you can do for 5 bucks an hour… I did a series of posts about with pictures…
I’ll see if I can search it. What would be a good key word for the search?
tobacco, Kentucky
and was the main meal in the middle of the day?? what in the world got you to a Kentucky tobacco farm??
I can’t talk about it here, but I was having a disagreement with the U. S. Navy…
oh. stupid Navy. (I’m on your side)
Long story
I just read those posts. That is crazy! I guess I never really thought about it, I kinda pictured it like cotton fields and you just pick it. Good thing you were a young man and in good shape. It sounds like something I would have attempted too.
I’m sure you could still get that job.
oh boy!
ha
My kind of girl.
you have to have standards
I do. Most of them are on 33 1/3 rpm, a few on 78 rpm. Mostly Sinatra.

🙂 I am guessing that is why no one in my family is overweight. Well the little dog maybe a little bit, but the stupid vet is the only one that thinks so! The dog definitely does not agree. Now that I think about it the black cat might be a little portly too… but the people? We all good!
any portly in a storm, I always say
Must be dinner time in SD, CA.
it was…
HA! there is a South Dakota in California??
San Diego
…oh…
yup
Yeah. They should move Sturgis and the bikers to San Diego and Art’s neighborhood for a week each year.
we have bikers already
yeah, but not hundreds of thousands…
dude… they are just visiting… where do you think most of them come from?
Harley Davidson island??
sigh
hahahaha 🙂

Yo! A little help here. Don’t come snipeing in here at the last moment and steal the glory. This ain’t Ebay.
no… it’s Myway
In it to win it.
yo, dawg
And we done did. I just published my post at 1:05 and I’m waiting to draw first blood. I have always wondered where on the other side of the world do my night readers come from. I’ll hang a while with you waiting for a nibble.
It’s exactly 12 hours difference between me and Singapore where I have had a hit from in the past once or twice.
I want to go there
This is really cutting into my porn surfing time.
That is a public service I do for free… I have even done posts about it… just type ‘porn’ in to the little search bar thingy
And worth the price we are paying for the service.
well, yeah
Like free advice. Worth twice the price.
all my advice is free
So I guess that means if we aren’t happy with it, no refunds?
you can not use it
“This is the song that never ends, and it goes on and on my friends.”
So we are going for 100,000…
“Somebody started singing it not knowing what it was, and they’ll continue singing it for ever just because”
yeah they will
YEA! Sing along Art. Wash, rinse and repeat.
“This is the song that never ends, and it goes on and on my friends.
Somebody started singing it not knowing what it was, and they’ll continue singing it forever just because…”
Now everybody!
“This is the song that never ends, and it goes on and on my friends…”
please make it stop
First PMAO; then the song. Deal? Just what I thought. You don’t want it to end all that bad.
sigh
Okay, computer moron, your link directly to the comments section worked. Bravo! So now that I’m here….
I think I’ll post a comment.
tell us a story!
Maybe two.
Okay, make that three. Three time’s a charm, right? Or something like that.
three is a perfectly acceptable number… not too showy…
the story of your life
I was born, I grew up, I got a job, I got married, we had kids, I paid taxes, and someday I’m gonna die. The story of my life.
I don’t like the ending… change it…
Okay. I’ll stop paying taxes. Is that the part you don’t like?
Now the NSA has that on file… HA!
This trick isn’t supposed to work on people who have been here before… unless you want to personally go over the 30,000 mark
You didn’t state that clearly in the invitation. But now that I know that, you have permission to delete my ineligible comments.
there ain’t no such thing
You always make up the rules as you go along. I like it!
Talk to the crack squirrels
somebody screwed up his system and we are gonna delete this post and start all over again…
yeah we are
Let’s.
I can’t feel my fingers
time for a reunion…
Remember when I told you your next book was being written right here? I think I was correct. All you need to do is piece together the conversations. It would be hilarious! It is just a bit of a challenge to follow in this format, but if you put a little editing work into it…..
a little?
hee heee. yep just a little. What?? You can probably follow it better than anyone else. I get all proud of myself when I put it together coherently.
Because it happens so seldom… HA!
103 to go. 102, after this one…
It is like the countdown to new year’s eve
Only more exciting.
29,857 comments. plus 102 = 29,959 right?? Oh boy, let us mathematically challenged join hands and sing! (and hope we are better singers than mathematicians. Or morticians)
wait… I need to use my fingers to add…
you really do have math issues if you think you have 102 fingers Art…
I told you… I ain’t from around here…
Oh my gosh…I’m terrible. Such simple mathematics, as well. :’)
no, not really. Do you have any idea how long it took me to figure out it wasn’t correct?? When I first saw it, I saw it exactly as you did! I believe I made a similar statement many comments ago, I noticed later that I didn’t do the math exactly right… oops.
Ahaa, I suppose it was a common mistake! Oh well, us wonderful mathematicians should unite sometime.
High five there OpD! 🙂
wait… let me double check… yup… that’s five all right
I’m up for uniting. Uniting is good. “Which side are you on?”
look at the unite on that guy… oh man… I kill me
Good. You just saved me from a life-time sentence.
That would be a run-on sentence
for some reason I keep reading ‘untying’ ….. instead of ‘unit-ing’. They aren’t even spelled the same..
But tying could be part of uniting… could it not? “I was wondering if you would happen to have a cup of rope I could shibari.
that was so deep
Setting aside the nudity for a moment, but only a moment, shibari is an exquisitely beautiful art form and ritual.
I’m sure it is
and remember to pronounce ‘infinity’ as ‘ifninity’
you can count on it… ha… see what I did there…
Ahaa, I don’t think I can – more to the point.
sigh
there is no right way to do math
Chisanbop.
are you sure?
As seen on TV. You too can be a math wizard.
I missed that show
Ummmbop.
My kid loved that song
Bebop-a-rebop, rhubarb pie.
are you quoting Prairie Home Companion??? I love that guy… we saw him live…
Garrison Keillor. The one and only. Seen the show live too. What’s Saturday night without PBS and A Prairie Home Companion. All of us closeted liberals listen.
just come out already
I’m not liberal enough to come out as one though.
but there might be gay guys in that closet… puts you in an awkward spot…
Awkward? Doing or being done?
Don’t ask, don’t tell
bop bop a loo bop a long bam boom.
maybe
bop bop a shoe bop, she’s my baby!
sure… for now
oh man… that made me think of an awesome tweet: I don’t do math, math does me… be right back
The squirrels are afraid of numbers…
Explains my maths results.
it explains mine
I’m sure the NSA is already on it… they know no international boundries
SO CLOSE.
no cigar
Oh there’s a cigar on the horizon…..
that’s not a cig… oh wait… nevermind
Treeennnnnnnttttttttt!!! or is is Daaaannnnnnnnn?? you know what happens when you only focus on the cigar….
You light up my life Art! 🙂
Like a big cigar? HA!!!!!!!!!
See. I behaved and didn’t go there.
you got spammed a bunch of times… it happens when you do too many comments in a row sometimes…
Good to know. I am working on a post and going back and forth doing just that, bulk comments. Want to be here for 30K.
That is a good way to do it
Well done!
Art, you are my everything.
I am trying to be everybody’s everything, but thanks
Yeah. You’re the lucky winner.
aw, shucks.
reunion party
yayaya
HA!
I got a view from Greenland today. Just thought I’d gloat…
oh man
But it still counts as a comment towards your goal.
true dat
Ha! I got a little confused and thought you GOT a view of Greenland today! OMG.
(PS you also got a view from Chicagoland today)
That is right next to Greenland, right?
This time of year Chicagoland IS Greenland! HA!
Go crawl back in your little cozy apartment cave until you come out and don’t see your shadow.
HEY! I have a house in the suburbs! And I have to come out a lot so I can keep it!
I have a friend whose brother in Chicago pays more in taxes than I pay in house payments here and he is far from living large.
spam
well said
ha. I do not know. my taxes are figured in with my mortgage. I do not want to know, I just want to know they are taken care of. No worries for me! 🙂
so you say
You want me to only go out at night?? what??
yeah… that’s what he meant
Think of the things we could do under the cover of stars and darkness.
spam
You think so? and stay away from street lights?? Even in winter we have sunshine. I happen to be a big fan of sunshine. On the water, makes me happy. Sunshine in my eyes… sorry…
wait… did I just reply: sing it with me now on the wrong comment?
Anytime I could get you out would be good for me. Busy now?
spam
sing it with me now
Well, now it is daytime…. Plus, I am never too busy for you Dan. (you either Trent)
I love you Art.
Art, is she playing us?
they all are…
I don’t mind though. How about you?. All us old mugs enjoy the attention.
as long as my old mug still holds coffee
Just don’t grin while you drink.
I can’t help it
yay
No, Art gets all pouty if he isn’t involved in the love fest.. one of my comments I told him I would swear my undying love for him each time I posted a comment, just to keep him happy. It was funny at first, but it’s getting old already.
not to me it isn’t
Oh, well. We’re cranky old farts and need all the loving we can get. It’s just fun to have all of you flirt with us and play us.
and by ‘us’ he means mostley me…
What he said.
yup
I am not sure about you Dan, but I think I am older than Art….. I believe we were born in the same year and unless he was born in January or very early in February, I win…
I thought you were way younger for some reason
I am the resident old fart here.
well that stinks… ha!
All of me? Have you been speaking to my other personalities?? Darn them!
ain’t nobody got time for that
You thought who was way younger? Me or Dan? I know, my font doesn’t look anywhere near my age!
you… you type young
I type OLD? Really? 😦 *Sniffing and sulking*
yeah… what is that… like Times OLD Roman? (oh man…. I am funny)
I like roaming with my hands.
roaming holiday
Like I said. Sinatra-Young at Heart.
close enough
nope. It’s my font. although people who see me don’t think I look my age either, so I guess my font is also a front. I have had to prove that I am an old lady to some non believers. You were born in 1961 right?
I was born in 1960… kid… and I only look at your font from the front… I am that polite…
That’s when he was abandoned on this planet to colonize. He’s off to a slow start. Going for quality with his daughters, not quantity.
…ooo000ooo…
well then, there you have it. You are MUCH older than I!
I tried to tell you
awww come on Dan! Your font doesn’t look that old to me!
wait for it
It’s that occasional drop serif that shows my age.
I dropped the serif… but I swear it was in self defense… and that is why I am the king here…
The real problem can be with persistent participle dangle. Hardly a laughing matter. Oooh. See that.
your dangling participle is not tense…
Therein lies the rub or the lack thereof. Love the structure of that. The two “there-“s anchoring the ends with the “or” in the middle. Such a fun thing to just throw out there with so little effort. I really do love words and writing.
down, boy
or just under the covers for that matter…
private eyes… and hands… and stuff…
How did I miss this?
good question
Oh my, George Takei.
exactly
or under….nevermind…
I’m not picky. Just a big bundle of want.
you so wanty it’s haunty
Sometimes it’s even jaunty
but not too flaunty
And when it’s jaunty i flaunty.
oh… I just went there
Oh Gawd. Now thinking alike. Is there a vaccine for this?
undoubtedly not or I would have used it
Get Hot-lanta on the line and alert the CDC.
and the CIA…
ha
I think you were busy, with an eruption or something….
he got lava everywhere
I do feel better though. Not as tense.
The first tense is the deepest…
I could also have gone with: you feel tents?
It’s all about feeling good around here. I feel pretty good. here, see??
That round place there feels good?

She started it. She always does and then pulls that demure “Moi” ploy on us. I’m weak. What else can I say. Besides, she’s a lot of fun. Her ex has to be wondering what was I thinking to blow that.
stop doubling up!!!
Ain’t me dude. Just count is at getting to 40K twice as fast.
I have come to accept that fact
She started it. She always does and then pulls that demure “Moi” ploy on us. I’m weak. What else can I say. Besides, she’s a lot of fun. Her ex has to be wondering what was I thinking to blow that.

If you don’t, you are doing it wrong.
oh wow
hmmmmmm
Thanks 🙂
And seriously, if Sarah Palin can get a view of Russia from her house, I can get a view of Greenland…
you would think so…
that was my thought exactly!
we are all on the same page… Palin is an idiot
Having a reunion party… oh yeah…
Wow. I have NEVER go a view from Greenland. I was beginning to wonder if the had the internet. I get hits from east bloc countries, tiny middle eastern countries, Asian countries and Scandinavian countries but no Greenland.
what about China… that took me forever…
Not yet but only been at it a little over 6 months. Do have Bahrain, Estonia and Madagascar. I’m not surprised at China or North Korea, but Greenland? Perhaps they are being covertly oppressed and we need to invade and rescue them too. I seems to have worked so well currently and in the past with so many middle eastern regimes and dictatorships for us.
Maybe they just have no sense of humor…
To busy worrying about the whole place going straight up in a series of hot, steaming volcanic eruptions. NO NO NO Don’t even think about word-playing that one.
who… me???
who… me???
Duh. or Julie, or Trent, or X, or…it’s such a rogue’s gallery of perpetrators of the double entendre here.
I collect that kind of people, I guess
Glad to be among the collectibles. 🙂
Now I need a new minion to dust all of you every once in a while.
I thought that was Julies job?
No… she makes dust, she doesn’t dust.
So many minions, so many jobs.
yup
and most of those jobs blow… wait… what?
That is because I am doing such an excellent job with the dust! I deserve a raise or something. It ain’t easy keepin the place dusty you know. and what was Dan talking about erections for??
Can’t answer right now. I’m a touch-typist but my right hand is otherwise very busy. I’ll get back when things slow down and relax a little. Well, not so little. Love that line of Nathan Lane’s in The Bird Cage about “one small difference” between him and Senator Keely.
not too slow… not too relaxed… both hands where we can see them…
You don’t want to be looking there.
spam
everybody talks about them sooner or later here… even the women… everybody but me… and it is so hard… not to talk about them… or something
also, Trent started it
HAHAHAHA! How does the blame fall on Trent?? He is MIA again.
Precisely because he isn’t here to defend himself. That’s how, silly girl.
spam
That is why it is easy to blame him
Yes, but I am here to defend the fair Trent!
that seems fair
STOP THE DIRTY TALK!! about the jobs!
I might say “eye of the beholder,” to that Julie. Actually, I will. What are you thinking, girl???
She would rather not be holdin’ an eruption, that’s what she’s thinking.
He started it this time… I am not even blaming Trent…
FINALLY! You call me out on that, but leave the fact that you never said erection alone?? Oh man!!
“FINALLY! You call me out on that, but leave the fact that you never said erection alone?? Oh man!!”
I try to avoid those two together whenever possible. Erections and alone that is. I’m busy right now though. Well have to deal with it later. I’ll try to call you out then…under those stars in the dark…”The Chicago way..” Sean Connery. “The Untouchables”
Once again, people, this is NOT a singles bar…
What happened to the singles bar we put in last year with HH? We had a name picked out and everything.
I told him that what the minions do on their time off is none of my affair, but here, it is all work.
“WORK!??” Maynard G. Krebs. The Dobie Gillis Show.
I love that show!
I was wondering about that, because I would have said that was a little too much… even Trent just talks about semis…
If talk is all you got, you gotta go with that.
you can play with WORDS here…
Problem is, there’s almost no one in Greenland.
China, on the other hand…
You have a point there.
I thought Greenland was supposed to be a really pretty place? No? Am I confusing it with Iceland?? GAH! I’m so confused! Or maybe it is just the hot, steaming eruptions that has me distracted….
Behave yourself. No one-handed typing.
uh oh
Let the games begin. Be brave. Come back with your shield or on it.
spam
hey now… no eruptions… we all live in a secret lair INSIDE the hollow volcano remember? And Greenland is icy and Iceland is green…
ok, so Chicagoland is Iceland this time of year then?? oh boy…
Oh yeah, and I love you like no other Arthur.
Because I am like no other Arthur… or any other human male…
yep, you’re unique! just like everybody else.
no… not like everybody else
ok, you got a view and OpD got a view. I conclude there is one person in Greenland. You should both be congratulated for having the entire population of Greenland visit your blog!
…ooo000ooo…
wasn’t I cleaver there Art??
yes, of course you were
I had a view from Greenland once. Just the one. I must have scared them off.
There’s your answer as to why we don’t have any hits from Greenland. She has a bad juju and is infecting us with it. She probably has had multiple hits from China and North Korea too but wisely thought better than to tell us and tip her hand. We should rat her out to the DHS and get her deported. There’s a conspiracy afoot, Holmes.
I would be concerned about hits from China and North Korea. I don’t trust em!
Nixon did China and you could trust him and Agnew too.
He was not a crook!
I have an old copy of a news magazine which shows both Nixon and Agnew standing side-by-side with their arms up and waving the V for victory sign. The banner reads something like “Trust Restored.”

I just want the numbers… and to fill my whole stat map with color…
is that all?? do you want me to get you some crayons??
I have some already
Yeah, but you ate all the green, brown and yellow ones. Nasty looking teeth.
whoops
color away then! 🙂
dude… I am all about the art… whenever we went to a restaurant and they gave my kids crayons and a placemat to color, I asked for one too.
You only need one to fill the country with color on the stat world map
Indeed!
It is like playing Risk,,,
Guam, on the other hand – they love me!
I have most of the world… except for Iceland, a few old Soviet republics and a few in West Africa.
Ahaa, I have visits from countries I never knew existed.
I know what you mean.
It’s like the Olympics. I swear they make some of those countries up…
We need more countries
Are you suggesting we make some up?
sure… good contest… since my ugliest name of a place contest went nowhere
I never heard of your contest. I’m intrigued. I fear a little too late, however…
Actually you are just in time. Stick around and help. Be part of history.
no… we are now talking about my post trying to find the ugliest name of a place on this planet,,, try to keep up
Keeping up? Does it really matter?
no… but it is more fun to run out ahead of the pack, and if you don’t keep up…
The post is still there… back at the end of the Bay Area trip… it is called: something about the valley of the shadow of death
It’s never too late! Art, you can’t expect every post you write to challenge the world record comment post you know….speaking of you know, you know how much I love you??
your right… I never thought I would say this, but that is getting old… HA!
I KNEW IT! See? I’m right again!
you are on a roll
Nearly at 30,000. Not bad for a human
Who are you calling a human???
Okay, squirrel infested cranium
but not a human one… could crack squirrels live in a human-sized cranium?
It depends on the size of the squirrels and the size of the cranium
true
