‘State of the Blog’: Back for Another Round

Hey, all. Nothing funny to see here tonight; I’m just taking care of some bidness. You want funny (or my idea of same, anyway), you can head back to my last post, or wait for tomorrow’s Punchline Fever! entry. This one is strictly for props, kudos, and howdy-dos.

(No, not that kind of ‘howdy-dos’, ya pervert. Put that egg beater away and stop drooling.

Jeez, there’s one in every crowd.)

Anyway, we’ve got a lot of ground to cover, so let’s get to it:

First up, I’d like to (belatedly) throw my two cents down for the latest edition of Blog It Forward, as decreed by the venerable Buzz. (And when Buzz talks, there will be listening!)

So, I’ve got two sites to share with you, both old favorites of mine. The first is Nef’s Blog, penned ably by our good man nef.

(Or ‘nefarious’, for long, if that’s the sort of thing I’m allowed to say in polite company. You never know who’s going to get upset over ‘for long‘.)

Anyway, nef writes himself a nifty little weblog, and has — more than once — made me giggle, snort, and (more likely) curse the day he was ever born because he’s turned me on to some infernal damned online game that I simply can’t stop playing until I finish. Or the sun comes up, whichever’s first. Nefarious, indeed. Be sure to check him out.

Secondly, I fear that I’ve been remiss in not calling out my compatriot from across the continents, the cheeky devil down under, a veritable bacchinalian Australian (yeah, look, even I don’t know what that means…), the one, the only, the incomparable Monkey. She’s got herself a cool new design of late (though we’re still begging her to put her little monkey piccy back on it), and remains the greatest invention since the two-ply bathroom tissue. If you’re not reading Monkey, well then, you’re simply not reading. Go see Miss Monkey, and tell her I said ‘G’day.’

(Yeah. That oughta rile her up. Hee!)

Okay. Next order of business. This week’s Blogger Idol picks. Early? Yes. Better now than later? Probably. Gonna happen, no matter what? Absolutely. So let’s do this funky thang:

• Courting Disaster – A Trip to Granchester
• Downtown Chick Chat – Wait, You Said Which Movie, Now?!
• Ryan Cordell – ‘Surrounded By Butts and Breasts’
• American Diatribe – Just Another Blog Whore
• Spare Change – A Couple’s Confessions

Finally, for all who are interested, I’ve (finally) managed to post clips and info from my last two standup shows. You can get at ’em from the sidebar links, or you can simply click here and here. Come on! All the cool kids are doin’ it.

And that’s it — I’m off to bed. Stay tuned for tomorrow’s Punchline Fever! Until then, sleep well, stay clean, and don’t forget to spay or neuter your pets. Or something. Good night!
