LET ME ENTERTAIN YOU!
Feb 21
No, I’m not about to do a striptease.
That’s not my line of work. Besides, at this point, it might scare the horses.
The thing is, folks, I need to know what YOU would like me to write about so that I CAN entertain you. In my own expletive deleted way.
I know you have lots of other things to do . . . and TOO MANY EMAILS!
But how many of those emails make you happy?
Tell me what topics would make you:
•Open the email.
•Read the blog.
•Comment (if you choose to).
Here are posts you liked, judging by the traffic to the blog and the comments:
OPENING ACT
How everything is over-packaged, including that famous clip of Larry David attacking the impossible-to-open package. You will feel his pain.

WHAT’S WITH THE WEIGHT?
The meaning of that song we all love but don’t have a clue to what it’s about, with that incredible line, “I pulled into Nazareth, I was feelin’ about half past dead.”

DUDEISM ABIDES
Starring Jeff Bridges, who abides right here on this very blog, plus Dudeism as a religion. Really.

LOVE IN THE TIME OF COVID
Maybe it was the illustration of that cute black nightie that drew you in, or you’re just sick of this damn pandemic. Anyway, a lot of you liked it.

NOW WHAT ELSE WOULD YOU LIKE TO READ ABOUT?
THE DANGERS OF DIETING?
THE DANGERS OF DATING?
THE DANGERS OF DIETING WHILE DATING? (Might be the gas from all those veggies.) TV SHOWS YOU’RE HOOKED ON? (For me it’s Slow Horses)
COOKING CATASTROPHES?
TRAVEL DISASTERS?
BOYFRIENDS/GIRLFRIENDS/OTHER PEOPLE WHO GIVE YOU AGITA?
PRETTY MUCH ANYTHING IS FAIR GAME.
PLEASE leave your suggestions in the comments box.
Which, BTW, is very user-friendly.
FIRST NAME ONLY unless you want to reveal all.
EMAIL is required, but it won’t show on the blog.
IGNORE the space for a Website, unless you happen to have one.
AND YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE FUNNY (THAT’S MY JOB), WORDY, OR PROFOUND.
Just “It made me smile” causes a blogger’s heart to skip a beat.
(Which I won’t tell my cardiologist.)
But do feel free to say anything that your little heart desires.
THAT’S ALL, FOLKS.
I’ll let you know what I know when I know it.
Meanwhile, comment below, and enjoy previous blogs.
I promise, blogger’s honor, I will entertain you. With my clothes on.
Any topic you tackle turns out funny. Just keep writing!
I wouldn’t try to striptease though.
Thanks, I guess I’ll packk that boa away for now.
Love your posts, Pat!
I personally struggle with the dangers of dieting while dating. Men want you to be thin but expect you to match their eating bite by bite! I’m 5’1″ and petite. What’s a girl to do?
I know, I know. They tell you that “you eat like a bird”
although Norman Bates dispelled that notion in Psycho, explaining that birds eat a lot for their size. And we eat enough,for OUR size. (I’m petite,too.) Then they go gaga for ultra thin models and actresses like Audrey Hepburn. I like her too, but I do think there’s material here for a post.
What makes me smile is that you can’t come up with anything to blog about anymore than I can. Why don’t you take a tip from Seinfeld and write about nothing. We all know that you can make even nothing funny.
I beg to differ! I can up with lots of things. I wanted to know what readers would like to read.
In a way, this IS a blog about nothing (in particular).
Oh no my list just got wiped out, bummer :(:(:(. I’ll try again tomorrow…
There’s a post right there: I Lost It On The Internet.
Here are some topics you might want to cover:
Mockery: Is it more fulfilling to make fun of people nobody knows or people everybody knows?
Good or Bad Idea?: The ChatGPT suicide prevention hotline.
Existentialism: If the automatic toilet flusher flushes while you’re still sitting there, do you exist?
Lying: How many lies must a person tell before you call a person a politician (sung to the tune of ‘Blowing in the wind’)?
I think that’s the post right there, Lou.
Maybe some other readers will add their thoughts and I won’t have to do anything. Just call it something like Deep Thoughts (but SNl already did that).
I particularly like the one about the automatic toilet flusher.
