Up in the Air

As I mentioned previously, I’m going to be doing some front page writing for the Booman Tribune. I’ll admit to being a bit nervous, as that site has a far larger audience than what I’m used to here. My first post is up if you want to have a look. It’s not very good, but I had to start somewhere. Since I’m comfortable with sucking, a sucky post seemed appropriate. It got 30+ comments this afternoon, which is about what I’m used to in a week. Yikes.
Anyway, I’m not sure how I plan to divide my time between this site and that one. I’m not planning on doing any cross-posting, but since I don’t really write all that much, that could mean that this site drys up for a bit. Maybe I’ll try to recruit somebody to pretend they are me and post pictures of baby animals late at night after drinking too much. If you’re interested, drop me a line. Here’s a baby panther picture I stole from my sister.

Cute pic! And liked your 1st BooMan post (and the copious pandas seem to imply I am not alone there. And a Panda BEER as well!!!).
Will keep an eye open in both places for you. Noone combines cuddly baby animals and ferocious polilical insight quite like you…

Apologies from your proofreader for missing shoo-in. Something didn’t seem quite right about it, but I didn’t realize it was actually wrong. Oops!!

No call for apologies. It was a fun goof. Your help is always good and welcome and appreciated. Without you and Sheila proof reading for me, I’d be dead in the water.

Finally, a job for which I am perfectly qualified…
That aside, Booman, huh? That’s pretty cool. It’s fitting that someone with your wit and sensibility should get a wider audience.

Thanks Howard. I’m going to try to have fun with it until Booman kicks me off, or I lose my head and bug out in typical fashion. And if you want the heavy drinking, baby animal posting gig, it’s all yours.

even funner… with your new front page powers, you can kick others off while heavily drinking and posting baby animals pics! [kidding… kidding]
