This week: I Salute Blogger.com!

Given my experiences with the well-oiled machine that is Blogger.com, I thought it high time that someone sing their praises. Then, realizing that THAT wasn't gonna happen any time soon, I decided to speak my piece. Here goes...

First off, let's meet the brains behind the scenes:

Introducing Thakk Whisenhunt, Founder and CEO, pictured here with his lovely wife Judith.

Thakk was sitting around his squalid little dump of a studio apartment in Valley Village, California (a particularly nondescript part of the quagmire-ish San Fernando Valley that most people mistake... understandably enough... for North Hollywood) one day and, for no discernible reason, decided that it was time to get in touch with his tree-dwelling ancestors of a couple of generations ago. Clearly the best way to do this, he thought, was to go ahead and take a big steaming dump right there in his own left hand (thus proving the point of most of the right-handed world).

Having been mostly successful in that endeavour, he decided that the next most logical thing to do was to appease the Pollockian voice that had been nagging at him for most of the last decade or so.

As Thakk admired the sight of his human stain running down the otherwise blank wall directly in front of him (the mustard seeds were a particular delight!), he grunted, burped, and uttered the word that we have all come to love so... "blog"!

And so was born a legend.

Let's all give Thakk a hand!

Next week: the geniuses in I.T. who can't figure out how to allow anyone to post more than one photo with any kind of reliability!

what's a Trog

TheOneTrueGuy said...

Keegs--

Have a couple'a beers and google "Trog". You won't get the full treatment but at least you'll get yer question answered.

Then go out and rent the flick.

Or maybe youtube might have something.

Besides, I figgered you of all people would be familiar with ALL of Joan Crawford's flicks (bein' the lover of old movies that you are).
