That was quite the good read. Nicely done.

To supplement the fact that people love lists, I wanted to call one out and add some items of my own.

“Words and terms which sound dirty but aren’t
dangle
boisenberries
trickle
analgesic”

I’ve found that the words ‘moist’ and ‘kumquat’ sound quite dirty. Now that I think of it, moist is a dirty word of sorts. It’s all about the context. Kumquats, on the other hand, are simply delicious.

Be well.

Hi Dave – First, congratulations on your three month anniversary. I was laughing as I read this, and then realized how true it is. I love the part where you wrote, “In blogging, subheads are used to aid in quick digestion so readers can quickly scan a post without actually reading it and still know enough to easily feign sincerity in the comments.”. It made me realize that I need to do more of that as there have been times when I read a comment and said “What???”

The “Steve” reference was great, but it made me feel like I was eavesdropping. Till the next anniversary, Cheers!

I'm sorry I refuse to read this until you put it in an ebook and charge me somewhere between 7 and 15 dollars for it. Oh, that's after knocking the price down from $49.99. Dave Fowlers last blog post..Teaching My Children About Health, Fitness and Diet

Aw! You’ve graduated. What a brilliant way to memorialize that event. Lovely post, so sarcastic, yet so true.

I've not ever once raising the size of my font. Perhaps I should, perhaps I should sensationalize my writing even more. Murder after murder isn't cutting it anymore. Dammit. Matthew Drydens last blog post..Who Are You?

Those are excellent points and you caught me red handed reading your subtitles. However your subtitles ended up making me read your whole post. The point you made about using "You" in your post was good, I never really did that before. I will have to start using that tip. Thanks. Orlunds last blog post..Friday’s Photo: Bath Time Fun

Just in case it wasn’t obvious, this post was tongue in cheek – though there were some useful bits in there, Steve.

I actually started this post about two weeks into blogging. It was going to be a joke, here’s this guy who just started telling people what to do. However, I kept putting it off and hitting SAVE on the draft in WordPress. I was burned out last night from a hundred things going on and decided to polish this up and use it.

Tara – Thanks. You just like dangling participles.

Urban Panther – Well, it was written for Steve and he LOVES stories about explosive poo.

CK Lunchbox – HE LIVES!! A Clark siting! Thank you.

Writer Dad – Steve is my muse. I was going to call him Branch because he’s not quite as inspiring as Matthew’s Tree.

GreenJello – Thanks! Of course, it was brilliant! You have GREAT taste.

Sal – Thank you. That was all part of my plan to leave you wanting more. That, along with information on how to make millions using SEO keywords is my next post – sometime in 2012.

Kyddryn – I like kitties with hats.

Jamie – funny? Now, I’m offended. And the only part I stole from your emails was the explosive poo tip. You are ALWAYS going on about explosive poo!

Ok, I hope this was meant to be funny, because I snorted my way through it. you should make a template: Insert adjective here, insert three key points here, and BAM! you have a top-rated post!

BTW, were some of those stolen from my emails?
