This is Only a Test

Dear Blog Viewers,

This is simply a test. A test to find out how responsible the blog writers of Blogerang are. Do they even look at this site on a daily basis. This is a test.

All Blogerang writers, text me when you see this with the words “I’m a failure and do not contribute to the cause”.

It has been 5 days since Curt posted and that’s ok because he usually contributes a fantastic thought out article. The last post other than curt was 8 DAYS AGO!…..8.

Not to mention that the “Staff Infection” page currently only lists one Bio, mine.

Our fans and our readers want content. It’s our job to provide it.

End of test.

-Paul

How to Scare Curt:

It’s Friday the 13th and although I’ve never watched any of the films in their entirety, that doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy the day. Here’s some stuff that terrifies me. Don’t judge me. Unless you’re a judge, of course. Then you can find me guilty of awesome.

When my entire arm falls asleep overnight. I wake up in a panic and although it has happened before, the only thought going through my head is, “what if my arm never comes back? I need it. For things! Wake up damn you.” One evening, in a complete panic, I swung the entire weight of my dead arm across the bed. Unfortunately my wife was on the other side of the bed and got a sizable smack. Fortunately she sleeps very well. She groaned and shifted slightly then went back to sleep.

I honestly can’t explain it. I’ve never run out of gas. Even as a child, several years before I could drive, I was freaked out. My parents never ran out of gas while driving us from place to place. I don’t even know where I got the idea. My parents tell me that I would ask several times during a family road trip, “do we have enough gas?” I suspect if I ever do run out of gas, even next to a gas station, I’ll throw up in panic.

This goddamn thing from Poltergeist. I have two older brothers so I would often accidentally see things I shouldn’t see. Poltergeist was one of them. I had nightmares about this shit for months.

Feel free to chime in with some of your own fears.

Picking Up Steam

Hey, would you look at that? Our page has over 1000 views.

Granted I’m sure most of those views were generated by the staff checking on the page to see if it suddenly got popular. I’m sure Paul and I account for at least 25% of those views somehow. The rest are from family members and friends who feel obligated to see what we’re rambling on about.

Then there’s that sweet 5% of you that legitimately checked the page out. I’m not sure what brought you here or if it inspired you to come back more than once but thanks for checking it out.

We’re still getting started and figuring out exactly what we want to do as a group. Although the plan was to not adhere to a plan, we are working out ways to keep us involved and keep you entertained.

One thing I’m guilty of is rambling on for paragraph after paragraph of posts I never proof read because my attention span is so terribly limited. At least I have something to improve upon. For now, here’s a bunch of pictures of the staff to keep things fresh.

The Wizard Behind the Curtain

If there are going to be introductions tossed about due to the pressure of Curt and I, It’s only fair that my own introduction exists. My name is Paul. Here is a list of things that I enjoy and they are in no particular order.

Movies

Video Games

Board Games

Memes

Gifs

The Internet

Football (LSU Tigers & New Orleans Saints specifically)

Reality TV (Competition type stuff. None of that Honey Boo Boo Garbage)

Photography (Something sure to be seen in the future)

Well there it is, the moment everyone was waiting for. Time to get back to watching Blogerang’s Analytics, Placing Tags, Attaching Categories, Handling Social Media, Including related articles, and being the Blogerang Wizard.

Rebel Me This, Batman

There are all of these rules and preconceptions of how to act and how to do things. This post is dedicated to those of us who are a Rebel. There are those of us who do things that go against the normal way. We travel the road less traveled. That road of course is only less traveled if that particular rule/preconception is broken by a small number of the population. Unless of course that road is paved with concrete as most roads are, then we have no issue and it can take as many travelers as needed.

As I write this, I am eating a salad with a spoon. I am scooping my lettuce, grilled chicken, and croutons into an equal portion and taking a delicious bite. Jealous that you enjoy your salad with that lame utensil that has sharp metallic legs? You should be. I mean really, why would I stab my nice salad mix with ease when I can play a game of “Good luck keeping it on the spoon”?

With that said, I propose a list of Rebel circumstances. Join the rebellion.

PSA: Acorns are Edible!

Hello. I feel like you all know me already. However, this is technically the first time I’m posting and you know what? I’m okay with that. Now I don’t have to spend the entire first paragraph introducing myself to you. That was already done a few posts back. Oh crap, looks like I spent the entire first paragraph talking about how much I liked not having to spend the entire first paragraph introducing myself. Oh well.

Recently, I was in China and I had Acorns for the first time. Now, I’ve seen Ice Age and I saw how precious these things were to Scrat, but I never really thought about eating them myself. To me, they were always for squirrels, chipmunks or for growing more Acorn trees. So anyways, I picked up this wrench-looking nut-cracker (It actually might have just been a wrench) and went to town on the bowl. They actually tasted pretty awesome. I ate a ton. Who knew? I know who knew, Scrat knew.

Why is it Monday?

Blogerang doesn’t take the weekends off.

Well, maybe it does. I guess we haven’t established that, yet.

Y’know how people get their 15 minutes of internet fame for pulling some crazy out of the box life stunt? Like selling all of their possessions or advertising on their face or eating a pound of expired cottage cheese for YouTube notoriety. Sometimes I have some crazy ideas but no inspiration to follow through.

So here’s an idea for an especially ambitious individual just remember where you heard it when you write a book on your endeavors:
