Redux Twice

I feel compelled to write so that all of you who have become used to witty repartee on the blogs ( this one and icebergcarwash) wont be starved for entertainment while the icees are limiting their posts.

So I went into the archives, and this one popped out. ( WHY do I have archives, when i have only been doing this for less than a month????? good question, packratisis, I guess. Again, for another time.)

I was listening to two comedians who currently have books out talk about the craft of writing humorously ( here he goes AGAIN, talking about the process, what is WRONG with this guy???). I found it both fascinating and elucidating, as I find myself in a similar position. I love the idea of putting forth my brilliant observations and thoughts, but I also feel tremendous pressure to maintain the level of funny that seems to be expected of me.

I find the craft of putting words on paper and either transporting someone to a fantasy world, provoking them to think, make them laugh, or just entertaining them, to be an incredible talent. Especially when one continues to think about what they read long after they put down the book ( or in today's world, got up from the computer, or closed their "berries).

It always amazes me that a good author can entertain you in any genre that they write in. Like a science fiction writer reminiscing about his past will still be well written and pull you in. I really should take lessons in the craft of writing on my way to my previously stated goal of the great American novel.


Now as much as I enjoy the comments, and the give and take, as well as driving up my CPP, ( see the icebergs for this one, but make sure you are awake and have time), I feel I must make a complete left turn here ,and once again address my myriad critics from yesterday's missive, Please Hold for the Next Available Operator and of course, its comments, as well as some housekeeping comments in general.

First of all, I am aware of how to get around the rules, but this is a public blog, so why would I write that I am doing something that can be considered wrong???? I am also well aware of the outsourcing issue, I WAS JUST COMMENTING ON MY EXPERIENCE, finally, I was also aware that there was probably a rule against using a coupon twice, as I stated, but felt it was silly. So read and read between the lines so your comments will remain incisive and on point.

Furthermore, although people are really creative with the names they use, that they are as good as anonymous, there are still those of you that post anonymously. I allow it, but would appreciate names, and the same ones for posts, so I can track you. ( heh heh, rubbing hands together) Also, if you are gonna sign your post, USE THAT AS YOUR NAME, and as long as I am on THAT topic, one doctor of food here is probably enough, and what is an Uhberschnitzel anyway???
