BlogHer? I Don't Even Know Her!





Where is my assistant.

Oh yeah-I don't have an assistant.

Well if I did I would totally be telling her to "Forward all my calls! I'll be at a conference this weekend in Chicago!" And I'd be yelling like that and pointing my finger in the air.

Also, I'd say "Take a memo!" and "Get me Marketing on the phone." And they'd be all: "Marketing Department..." and I'd be all: "Never mind. Keep up the good work." And then I'd make my assistant run out and get me a sausage egg sandwich from Dunkin Donuts.

Where was I.

Oh YEAH - I really am going to be at a conference - a BLOGGER'S conference, BlogHer '09 , which for you guys who don't blog probably sounds about as reasonable as an "e-mailers conference", but for us who do it is The. Coolest. Thing. EVER.

AND my roommate is the awesome Lisalicious from "Mommedy"









Oh look- a whole bunch of daddybloggers just flooded the phone lines with late registrations.

Anyway. It's going to be non-stop drinking, dancing and talking about boys enlightening seminars on monetizing, demographics and html advances.

Therefore I have packed the 4 essentials:

Laptop.
BG.
Ed Head.
Ibuprofen.








Bring it on, Chicago.

We get to meet! Say, should I be looking for you, or is it easier if I watch for BG holding court around a table with a gaggle of women asking for his autograph?

Steam Me Up, Kid said...

Hmm. Maybe your non-assistant is a man, ever think of that? (Sexist.)

Or a hermaphrodite. You never know.

I refer to all my imaginary friends as "it". Because I'm respectful like that and I don't make assumptions, because making assumptions makes an ass out of u and mption.

I hope this isn't my first comment here. I think it might be.

Have fun at Blogher!

The world continually makes the assumption that the publication of an error is identical with the conception of truth - that the error and actuality are guilelessly opposite. They are nothing of the sort. What the faction turns to, when it is cured on a particular gaffe, is commonly fully another error, and perhaps identical worse than the elementary one.

All schools, all colleges, set up two tremendous functions: to bestow on, and to conceal, valuable knowledge. The theological conception which they keep quiet about cannot justly be regarded as less valuable than that which they reveal. That is, when a man is buying a basket of strawberries it can profit him to understand that the substructure half of it is rotten.

Jokes of the right well-intentioned, properly told, can do more to inform questions of machination, stoicism, and creative writings than any number of obscure arguments.

Eating, loving, singing and digesting are, in truth, the four acts of the jocular opera known as individual, and they pass like bubbles of a bottle of champagne. Whoever lets them contravene without having enjoyed them is a entire fool.
