Weird Al, TWC and the Ether...

HELLO GENTLE READERS,

As I've mentioned before, I also Blog (a verb?) at another venue (http://thomasvickers.wordpress.com.) and have had some very unexpected viewers there. By the way, Blogs4me is a much friendler outlet! Nicer folks.

Anyway, I spent a few years of my life playing guitar for a major Country Music star. I met most of the movie stars, musicians, writers, sports figures and even some of so-called "Royal" blood. For the most part these celebrities are pretty much like you or I. Well, Marilyn Manson and Donald Trump may be a little different. I quit being awed by them when I saw a famous musician eating a peanut butter sandwich. It stuck to the roof of her mouth too!

That was a lifetime ago. My life has been far less glamorous the last 20 years. Enter the Weblog! I've done a "spoof" series on The Weather Channel (a Girls Gone Wild theme) and a few Blogs on the self-isolated Amish. This has generated some very interesting viewers, comments and E-mails. I've received several E-mails (I used to include my E-mail address in my blog--no more of that!) from the very good-humored personalities at TWC. Perhaps the biggest surprise has been a visit from Weird Al. He responded to the Amish Blogs with delight. Wow! Weird Al!

When we Bloggers commit our posts to the ether of the WWW we never know who will be on he other end. Is this a cool medium or what?
