Don't Die

I heard this on NPR this morning. Seems the Mayor of a town in France issued a decree that anyone who does not already own a plot in the near-full cemetery is forbidden to die in his town. Penalties will be sever for those breaking this ban. I wonder just how much more of penalty you can impose on a corpse.

AWOL

Okay. Okay.

I went AWOL for a few days. Thanks for all the cards and letters, you rat bastards. Sometimes I truly work for a living.

I had a meeting in D.C. The preparation was killer. I also have been fighting foo for the last two weeks, hence the meeting in D.C. At least the weather was pleasant. Sorry for the absence. Let's giggle like school girls about the 6 shots of tequila that amazed my traveling companions. What a bunch of pansies. 6? Why stop there?

Comedy Trivia

The "More Cowbell" sketch was cut from SNL during dress rehearsal. The thing that change everyone's mind is when Will Ferrell made a wardrobe change to the now famous "too small" shirt which kept creeping up with every movement. This just proves, comedy is subjective and the strangest thing can make all the difference between funny and not.

You clever thing! Stirring people up about you know who over at AC. Reading those comments is something else. I want to see if you top 144 or whatever the heck my article on comments got this weekend. Write an article on comments and the comments fly! When they are visible.

Speaking of the AC, if anyone has the ability to leave or receive visible comments could you send me a decoder ring for that, please? Would appreciate it? I found the AC cereal but (with my luck) the versions containing the decoder rings were all sold out at my grocery store, confusing when the cereal ALONE cost more than most article payments. Something seems a bit off in that economic formula but I still want a ring. I'm having withdrawal symptoms from AC, minor but unpleasant.

I wish I had the courage to 1/2 as humorous as you are on the AC Forum. I"m always afraid I'll get in trouble. Your comments have me cracking up there. - and many other places.

I'm popping in to say Hi and I churned the butter today. Where are the blasted biscuits or mashed potatoes or whatever goes with them. I am not peeling potatoes or making biscuits.
I did, however, promote Donna in one of my articles about audio content on AC and how it could fit into a niche market. Unfortunately, one person in that niche market, my sample listener, got turned on by Donna's voice and the results were not what I'd hoped,although he seemed like a very happy blind (I mean, visually impaired) man. I left out those details and I wish I hadn't heard them, even though he was behind a bathroom door.

I wanted to tell you first, Randy. I really did but I thought they'd take the award away from me if I ordered that skywriter to fly over Alabama.

(snicker) You smell like cookies?! I saw that comment. No fair. What kind of cookies? These details could affect SEO even though I haven't even tried to explore SEO yet, because of those blasted deadlines popping up all the time and distracting me.
If I had to guess, I'd say people should write about everything they can, the best they can and hope that lots of people want to read it. I don't know a thing about search engine optimization yet. I think cross-linking between sites helps, though.
