3 + 25

Greetings Salutations and Good Morning!
Welcome to The Bumblebee Protocol
Brought to you by the nearest Band Name Generator (Story coming soon!)

When one decides to undertake a project such a blog, they face several key questions that need to be answered. The first being, what the heck are they going to write about? After figuring out that question, next is deciding on the proper audience with which to share the love, sweat, and laughter. Finally, the last question to be answered, is inevitably the most important of the three. What in the blue hell are you going to write your first blog post about? Hmmmmm ......

When I finally convinced myself that I wanted to write a blog I needed to make sure I could answer those questions, as well as a make sure a few other important details were ironed out. But that part is for another blog post. So ..... considering you are now reading my blog, obviously I've answered the first two questions. Now the only task left for me to accomplish is/was number three.

After racking my brain with a leftover plastic fork from last week's dinner I have decided to post my answers to two surveys to generate interest in the random topics that are to be subjects of my blog. Both surveys are short and have very interesting information, make sure to give me some feedback when your all finished. I'm needy like that :)

  3. Hi! Cool blog, thanks for sharing. I too am slightly afraid of birds - well really just pigeons - and I loathe Canadian Geese, they are vile, murderous birds. And I collect skaters on Twitter the way you collect bands on MySpace :) Oh, I went to Iceland once! It is cool :) Except they fed me puffin without telling me after I specifically said "as long as it's not puffin." When they told me what I was eating I almost threw up. So when you go, be careful of that!

  6. Finally got a chance to read your blog. Very funny. I like Castle too. I pretty much like Nate Fillion in anything. Although I've never seen Desperate Housewives, so don't hold me to it. Good job.
