Bloggers with balls
From backstage at the Vintage Days Battle of the Bands, where myself and Famous Whitewater (center) were hosts and The Fresnan (right) was a judge:
This will have to suffice as my BotB blogging effort for the next day or so. I have video footage, but no time to edit it. Both The Fresnan and Mr. Whitewater have out-blogged me, so check those out. Before you ask about the balls in our mouths -- they were Beehive and Famous promo items. Now feel free to add you own bloggers/balls/mouth punchline.
Comments:
Hey now! It's Fresno's most prolific bloggers all in one place. And me without my hand grenade...
Cute pic, boys!

Why does Pulp Fiction come to mind when I see this?

I suppose I should point out that they're those squishy stress balls. They're not hard like skee balls.

This is just so wrong on so many levels; bring out the gimp.

Pathetic. Dismal. Disgusting. Repulsive. Abhorrent. Revolting. Vomit-inducing. Did I leave any out? No, that pretty much sums up the picture.

I just threw up. Is this the cast for America's grotesquest blogger. We have three winners. You must be very proud of your achievement.

Dear Brian Bruan/Mike Moore/whatever other alliterative name you're using today ...
At least we have the "balls" to post as ourselves, not under a different alias every day at around 2 p.m.
Sincerely,
Mike Osegueda

Wow, you figured me out. I like reading your blog when I am running on the treadmill trying to make sure that I never become what you are. You provide excellant motivation to ensure that I work my ass off to not be the white Ruben Studdard. I knew that working for the Fresno Bee is a step above trash pickup, but take the fork out of your mouth and calm down. I would have replied sooner, but I was talking to Suzie Simile, and Mary Metaphor.

We should be nice to this kid, Mike Oz. Clearly without us, he has no one to converse with during the day.
See you tomorrow when your classes let out, Friend of the Beehive.

Heather, what is your profession? Unless you earn more money than I do, keep your mouth shut and go back to sorting the paper clips, and filing papers you probable secretary. Where did you graduate college from? Oh wait, you didn't, no wonder your earning 15 bucks an hour and your 35 years old. Go back to your Ben and Jerrys and try not to breathe the same air as I do, it's wasteful to the people who matter.

Apparently my new profession is filling a hole in your life, which I am more than happy to do.
See you tomorrow, sweetheart.
Posted by: Heather at April 24, 2008 3:39 PM
You would have experience with holes being filled. You said it, I am just repeating your words. Oh, and I didn't realize that you were the fellow blogger, Wannabe Heather Hilton. Leave it to Perez, sweetheart. Or just be a link portal for iddiots who don't know where to find real gossip.

How do you know when your blog is a must-read?
The only replies are from fellow bloggers at the newspaper.

Hells yes, if this isn't a BLOG WAR!! I don't know what it is. Please continue.

Oh my god!!!!! You took the freakin bait. I have already posted about the correct way to post comments on a blog, and yet a person who writes a blog doesn't know the basics of posting on one. When you post a comment on a blog, or text message, do you use a dictionary and thesaurus to type a perfect message?!?!? This isn't a Masters thesis, it is a blog. People are supposed to post free flowing thoughts and not have the punctuation police show how not to post on a blog. If you are going to have a blog, at least know the basics. I already explained this to Osegueda in another post. And another thing, you are not Perez Hilton. Get over yourself. The only inside info you know is how to not correctly run a blog.

Whew! Theres a lot of rage and impotent anger out there! Having said that though, you got to admit you knew the "looks like a photo op from the Alternative Lifestyles Tomato Growers Association" comments were coming. In fact, I'm sure thats exactly why you posted it. But having said THAT, it's amazing to me how easily such folks are stimulated to present themselves and how they never let you lose faith in the energy and relentless drive of the lowest common denominator...which of course is well represented here in Fresno.

Please take this picture down. I can't take it anymore. Blahhh BlUEUEUE! I just threw up again.

You know, I just realized that we were handing these balls out Friday night at the John West show. I hope that you three either kept the ones you chewed on or gave them a wash before we handed them out to innocent Beehive readers.
Posted by: Heather at April 29, 2008 9:18 AM
Yes, Heather -- the mouth-balls were taken out of general circulation and immediately sent to the blogger hall of fame.
