  1. I dont know about this one mcBrooklyn.
    Seems like a "blogfest" would be a bunch of people sitting in a circle taking pictures of each other, "posting" them and then looking at their belly-buttons (except you of Course!)
    What do the donations goto?

  2. Do you believe there is a connection between blogging and obesity?

  3. Definitely. Not only the countless hours sitting in front of the computer, but something about the technology itself is turning us all into a bunch of potatoes.

  4. I noticed this recently the majority of bloggers that I have met in the area would be considered to be obese.

  5. I'm not sure about obese but perhaps some character/social defects for sure! For example, The BhBlog guy is insane about the Busy Chef. Just mention the two words and he starts frothing at the mouth. Also, before I started commenting here I was there and noticed how mean they can be about people. Dont want to get into it as its such a beautiful day! I like the positivity of Mcbrooklyn.

  6. If we take a look at the local bloggers it is true that most of them are overweight.

  7. 8:43 I hear you about the brooklynheights blog guy--still a good place for news though, but the guy is a bit mental re busy chef and his experience there

  8. I may be mental, I may get frothy, and I occasionally may be mean to the defenseless, but the Busy Chef Still Suckks.

  9. Seems like they're trying to improve. I'm told they made some personnel changes -- like putting the people who can't speak English into non-customer support areas, etc.

  17. I like reading good blogs--but maybe there's a new axiom about bloggers and blogs, where the better the blog is probably better to be read than their bloggers seen.
    Chew on that.

  18. I'm getting hungry.
