I Can’t Think of a Title

I’m not feeling well today. Perhaps the virus that is taking over my body started yesterday with my brain. That might explain why I posted pictures of huge-ass underwear and threatened to buy MyHusband extra small condoms. Then again, maybe not. Who knows? So, instead of risking another post like that I am stealing a comic from Bill at Frowning of a Lifetime. If you haven’t seen his comics you should go now. They’re a lot of fun and he’s getting very good. Just don’t ask him to make tea. Trust me on that one.

Turbulence

For Anthony. Hope your flight has enough turbulence to keep things interesting but not enough to bring you down. Unless you’re going down in a good way. Then that OK.

Kettle Corn

Have you ever seen Kettle Corn being made. They heat the oil in a huge copper kettle and just as it starts to pop they add the sugary goodness? It’s a lot of fun watching the corn rattling around in the kettle. And rattle it does. I’m not here to talk about fairground foods. Nope, I might one day, but this is not the one.

Today I am talking about bloggers. One in particular. His name would be Rattling the Kettle and he deserves to be thanked. You see, I left a sweet innocent message on his blog and he responded to me inappropriately. Not Catholic Priest inappropriate, it was a taunt. Maybe more of a threat.

“Oh, I’ll place you in a special section alright!” Rattling The Kettle rattled to me

I’m not one to go looking for a fight. I’m not one to let idol threats go unchallenged either. I sweetly and innocently let him know he could try. The thing is, the threat wasn’t idol. It was fairly active and I now have my own blogroll on his site. I’m in the “special” section. Check it out. It’s at the bottom. It should be on the top but I’m not picky.

So now, as I promised him, I am letting him know how much I appreciated his kindness. I am a nice person with good manners and I do things like that. I have chosen to appreciate him with very bad poetry.

There once was a man from Pasadena
He drove a Prius in winter
He drove it in the summer too
Without air conditioning
Because he’s so effin’ cheap!

There once was a dude from California
He had this thing for boobs
They were here and there
They were everywhere
What up with the breast feeding fetish dude?

There once was a man named RTK
That couldn’t tell humor from organic free-range chicken eggs
He apparently doesn’t realize
I’m the awesome dude blogger (in my own eyes)
I had the best caption for an aroused zebra EVER!

There once was a lawyer from out west
I’ll probably regret what I say next
I’d planned on being meaner
But he put up such a sweet post about his son I couldn’t.
He’s a big effin’ jerk.

Rattling The Kettle, you can consider yourself thanked. I wasn’t joking about that restraining order!

Seven Things I Dig About Whit

A big thanking is due to Anthony of sink.into.the.pacific. Despite recently becoming a monk he has taken the time to tag me. For the Whit MeMe. I appreciate the snuggle from the object of my mostly platonic affections.

Now for the part we have been waiting for:

Slightly More than Seven Things I Dig About Whit.

1. I can spend quite a bit of time thinking of a good smart-ass comment; two minutes later, he will reply with an even better smart-ass comment. I dig someone that can think fast and make me try harder.
2. He obviously loves his kids. I dig a guy that adores his children and can express it a way that makes everyone else adores him. Example 1, 2, and 3.
3. Even though he doesn’t understand it, he respects my drunken desire to have a religious experience with a fresh ripe tomato. I dig anyone that respects a womans drunken desires.
4. I own stock in Church and Dwight, Inc. They make Nair.
5. He quit a job he hated to be a SAHD that works from home. Stay-at-home dads always get a big thumbs up in my book. It takes a special kind of guy to do a job like that.
6. He writes poetry. What woman doesn’t dig a dude that can write poetry, especially if it’s good. 
7. He will argue passionately about the non-girliness of the drink called mojito. He thinks ‘Hemmingway drank it’ is a good argument.
8. He knows how to stay out of trouble. About the time he realized I was writing this post he came barreling over here to leave a nice comment about my writing.
9. He may be the only person in the world that can make me giggle about a dead cat.  Now that I think about it, he makes me giggle about a lot of things I shouldn’t giggle about. I dig that.

That brings to an end my diggin’ of Whit. I’m having trouble figuring out the next tag. I am thinking Rattling the Kettle because he has the highest number of recent links to Whit on Technorati and I am certain it would be good. The originator of the MeMe, Island Girl,  agrees with me so how about it, RTK?
