Going Topless

Predator Press

[LOBO]

Nestled just south of Angry Seafood and west of Musings of a Barefoot Foodie, Alltop just got it’s newest resident.

-I didn’t want to do it, but Guy Kawasaki was just relentless.

“LOBO,” he says. “Alltop’s motto is ‘We’ve got humor covered’. If Predator Press isn’t on it, I’ll be sued!”

“I just can’t Guy,” I reply. “And just what kind of name is 'Kawasaki'? Is that Swedish?"

"No."

"First of all," I says, "This isn’t a humorous-type blog. It’s more like the Wall Street Journal -‘cept with pictures and interesting content. If I allow this critical and historical document’s philosophy to be corrupted, the very fabric of our Great Nation will unravel. Do you Swedes want the terrorists to win? Do you? Hm?”

“But you’ll get more traffic,” he persists.

“I can’t handle anymore traffic! I got like four comments on my last post. Four! I defy you to show me any other blog with four comments. My server is completely ground to a standstill, and I simply can’t afford any more fruit baskets.”

“I can get you 30 days free on AOL.”

“Deal.”


Thanks Guy!

Congratulations LOBO, I haven't been this proud since...well, since yesterday at least.

Well done.

God! I thought their standards went to hell when they took me.

Congrats LOBO. It couldn't have happened to a more deserving blogger!

You only got 30 days? You should have held out longer. The rest of us got 90 days. hehe

Not only am I leaving a comment now (because I am officially a LOBO groupie now that you've hit the big time with Alltop) but I might even click the humor-blogs link and kick you up a notch on the front page. ;)

But before I do.. I want you to promise that I'll get an autograph.

And top billing in your blogroll.

And a piece of cheesecake.

Well, or apple pie, either one sounds pretty darn good right now!

I'd apply to Alltop but I fear rejection. Also: I fear applications.

Neighbor to the west, whats up? Welcome to the kick ass club.

Do me a favor and overtake those smug bastards at Stuff White People Like, and be thankful you ranked in above Dane Cook:)
