Johnny:

Like I always sez to people, “there ain’t nobody better than Truant in the world of blogs where writing is concerned.” More power to you, chief, and keep it up.

Truant’s got that rare combination of humor and the real deal to jazz up the workplace, and he still means business.

And you should guest post more often provided Naomi lets ya and doesn’t vomit all over your leather jacket.

(Psst: always thought of the ladies as full of sugar and spice and all that’s nice, but the vocab of cuss words which Naomi has at her disposal is as rare as an obese slob who passes gas and makes a lot of noise in public places).

By the way, if you think of yourself as the Fonz (Henry Winkler) of “Happy Days” fame, man, you got serious issues.

Thanks for your suggestion that we should all be more vulnerable on-line. Well, I am already pretty flawed, since I ain’t got a dime to my name. I talked about my weaknesses and limitations, and my girlfriend stole my wallet and went gold-digging for a geezer with money in the bank. Cheers!

I am going to bookmark this, share it, print it out, eat it if necessary. This is the plan I have been looking for. I have a blog that does not preach but chats and tells stories as a way of letting people know who I am and what I can do. With luck I will turn into a show up and be cool kind of person who also writes copy. So far I am working on that one.
But I love the no plan plan that has real sense at it’s heart and allows the author to be themselves.
Thanks.

Unfortunately, I am biologically incapable of being cool.

Folks, it’s all right if you’re not cool. You don’t have to be cool like Fonzie; you can be cool as in “not a dick.” I know several folks who aren’t cool (definition #1) but who I nonetheless like because they’re cool (definition #2) to be around.

For what it’s worth, I think a swearing tile elf is REALLY FUCKING COOL. Just not like Fonzie.
