LAST CALL! —– by Steve Nadis
Hold up there, folks. I’m not giving out free drinks. But I am writing to say that the judges are planning to announce the winners of the latest BLOGGING BUMPER STICKER SWEEPSTAKES, so this is the last chance to get in your entries. One of our readers, who is particularly “gifted” in this area (and I do not use that word lightly), hasn’t yet sent in any ideas, and this is a gentle reminder to him in case he is inclined to enter the high-pressure competition once again. Good luck to all who have the nerve to enter, as well as idle time on their hands that is begging to be wasted…
Just to show you this is not a one-way street, I will make up an entry on the spot, this very second (this is spontaneous folks; I wasn’t planning to do this!):
STOP LIVING AND START BLOGGING!

Well, Snake, I was going to sit this one out. Thought it was time to let the youngsters have a crack at it. But since you’ve thrown the gauntlet down with that last one (very clever, juxtaposing an enthusiastic tone with an inherently nihilistic message–"Curse you, Red Blogger!"), I guess I will have to strap on the guns one more time. (Cue eerie Western whistling music here.)
So here goes:
1) Veni, Sedi, Scripsi - "I came, I sat, I blogged."
2) A blog a day keeps just about everyone away.
3) If they can send a man to the moon, why can’t they send all the damn bloggers?
4) Blogging - the last refuge of the incoherent.
Thank you Gatemouth for strapping on the holster once again. I like them all. It seems you haven’t lost anything during your brief retirement.
