backstory

season one highlights

Hello folks!

If you're new to web...blah...log and you don't feel like sifting through all 70 of the first-year posts, maybe you'd like to know which ones are my favorites, which ones have proven most popular, and which ones will sum up the spirit of this blog-that's-not-a-blog.

Feel free to begin with the first post: welcome to me. Not the greatest opener, but hey.

Next, you may want to try the first post that heralded all that was to come:
          web...blah...clown

Departures from my traditional form include:
          historical musings
          mister steve martin
          from the vault: legitimate reasons
          from the vault: civilization

I have a particular fondness for these posts:
          zombies
          brave or stupid
          lordy
          mister steve martin
          lenten rehab
          subway monologue
          sorry, what?
          ooh child
          hello koo
          press release
          ludicrousness
          pomp

And these are the three most-read posts as of the one-year blog-iversary (and I am proud of them as well):
          harrumph
          tra la
          web...blah...log: the musical!

Finally, I recommend that you read what I consider to be the season-finale arc: the 8-part series that celebrated my brief stint at Burger King exactly 20 years earlier, the "cheese" posts:
          first day with cheese
          change with cheese
          selective memory with cheese
          ka-ching with cheese
          clown with cheese
          party with cheese
          employee of the month
          a look back with cheese

Don't get me wrong... the other posts are fine (though a few are less than), and you can feel free to explore them if you have a lot of free time. This is just a place to start. I hope you enjoy them enough to follow me into Season Two, whatever that may turn out to be.

Onward!
