How I’m able to blog so frequently …

Strawberry Singh has run a couple of her Monday Memes on the subject of blogging. The first featured questions on why people blog – which I answered here, and the second was about the journey we’ve undertaken as bloggers, to which I also responded.

Since publishing the second article, several people have asked me how it is I can be blogging “constantly” (no, really, they have!). Rather than bore you with talk of planning ahead, having a production line of articles in progress, etc., I thought I’d just come clean.

You see, I’m able to blog so much because I have an army small number of minions helpers eager to write stuff up for me …

Of course, I have to keep all bananas carefully hidden, so as to avoid total mayhem, but that’s a small price to pay.

So there you have it. The truth is out.

 

Gmail genius!

Pigeon: Impossible

Something to take your mind off all the heavy stuff.

Forget Tom Cruise; enjoy what is perhaps the funniest, epic short in the history of animation that has it all: a bit of Bond, a little Get Smart! a touch of North by Northwest, even a nod to Rowan Atkinson – and the truth behind the Washington Monument!!
