You missed this one

Grandad October 12th, 2008

I wrote a great article to publish today.

It is funny, controversial and it’s probably the best thing I have ever written.

But no one reads this site on a Sunday.

So I deleted it.

Blast!

What to read now with my morning cup of tea? You’re not playing fair, Grandad.

Radge – Do I ever play fair? There is nothing in the rules about fairness.
# Maxi Cane on 12 Oct 2008 at 11:58 am

Yeah, I’m the same.

Monday – Friday lots of people. Weekend, nothing.

Just goes to show that when people should be working, they’re reading blogs. Then they complain they get worked too hard. Think that means we should consider their stress levels when we write?

I’ve just read the rules. Turns out you’re right. I’ll go quietly.

Mondays and Thursdays are my big-hit days, with monthly spikes that appear to happen on the waxing half-moon….
Weird.

No wonder the economy’s in the toilet, with nobody doing work anywhere if they have an internet connection. Are bloggers of the world to blame for the mess after all??

(Cool!)

You won’t ever catch me reading your blog on a weekend.
# John O on 12 Oct 2008 at 4:03 pm

I thoroughly disagree, fortunately for me in order to stay “grounded” I have to read your blog! The crop in the back yard isn’t ready yet and neither are the oranges, what am I going to do to keep myself from thinking about the political f-up going on over here? For god’s sake man, get up and tickle the keyboard!

I’m a RSS fiend. If you write it I’ll eventually see it.

# stipes on 12 Oct 2008 at 6:30 pm

I don’t have time to read it today, can you publish tomorrow?
# Kate on 12 Oct 2008 at 6:55 pm

Clever that Grandad…… well done!

Thanks for taking away my only bit of fun in the midst of the “crisis” mode here. I can’t turn on the TV for fear of having to see the same old politians on every channel, I can’t read because of my active wee uns. My only good laugh of the day is your blog stories and now you choose to deprive us? Thanks Grandad
# Grandad on 12 Oct 2008 at 7:59 pm

Ha!

If you lot pay me a retainer, and I will write great stuff every day.

Until then……..

we should form a society for bloggers who bother to blog on a sunday…….or not….
# Jefferson Davis on 13 Oct 2008 at 1:25 am

Damn, I need something hilarious to read with my Sunday morning cuppa!
# Grandad on 13 Oct 2008 at 1:26 am

I think it was Marx who said “The primary function of a blog is to distract the proletariat when they should be working“.

Seeing as the majority of you aren’t working on a Sunday, I am wasting my time.
# Olga, the Traveling Bra on 13 Oct 2008 at 5:30 am

I was gonna apologize for my lack of visiting lately, Grandad….so here I am & WHAT?!?!…no post?!!?

Geez….

Guess I’ll come back tomorrow. I hope there’s something to read!

According to unnamed sources at an extra legal government agency, they have tapped into your computer, they read your post as you typed it, and they did not think it was that interesting.
# TheChrisD on 13 Oct 2008 at 3:53 pm

But Sunday is everyone’s day to shine. That way people can look forward to something that they can spend most of Monday morning reading and pondering over instead of working/going to lectures/etc.
# raptureponies on 13 Oct 2008 at 3:58 pm

Tease!
# spaghetti hoop on 13 Oct 2008 at 9:59 pm
