Hey, nice blog site... I really really love this blog site the best... it is the best blog site ever.. but you know what.. I have a blog site too. It isn't that I think that mine is better. it is just that I like mine better and I want to irritate the piss out of everyone that has a blog with my blog so that they will fake interest while secretly (or blatenly) want to kill me. Because I won't just do it once... no no no.. I will cut and past my false admiration for other peoples' blogs and the advertisment for mine... because when it is all said and done... I really like my useless bundle of words better than yours or anyone else... not that I think that they are better.. no... I just like them better. I care about me and my blog and scan the rest...
so please come to my blog since I cam to your blog. ok

go down rt 11 until you reach the truckstop then make a right on alternate 220 then you will get to 460, make a left at that light and keep driving till your tired.. then drive a lil more until you see my blog on a billboard marked with a big "my blog" on it. thanks

Seriously, why do these things end up on our portion of the blog more often than other portions of the blog??? There must be something I can do to avoid it. I may have to see if I can put that extra security thing on there or ask Todd to do it if it's something only he can access. Blargh.

Hi guys. Greg here--co-wrote "Adventures of Dori & Greg" on 9/16.

Speaking as a friend of Mistress Sasha--she had a blast and definitely plans to return to No Shame (I will pass on your request, Adam), as do I. She has plans for another piece--we were gonna go last week but exhaustion intervened.

Whether I bring back another piece is another matter entirely given only to time. (Actually, scratch that, i've got one for this week if there's time. However, given that I'd now be a 2nd-time writer for No Shame, I no longer have an automatic in.

Anyway, we've had a great time all 3 times we've gone.

To clarify: Mistress Sasha wrote "Oh my God, my penis burns," about the daughter taking her father to the ProDom dungeon, which was presented at NoShame on Fri. 10/14.

Hope to see you all this week!
