x marks the spot

I wonder if it was just a coincidence, or if the woman who marked my hand at the Brewery knew that, by placing the “x” where she did, she was turning my hand into a severed unicorn head.

I was going to post a lot more tonight, but I just read in the “New York Times” that my blog might be killing me. So I’m taking evasive action.

As I read the article, blogging doesn't kill people, critical and financial success in blogging kills people. I worked the numbers and am happy to report you have another 83 years before you should experience any symptoms of physical decline.

I like the part in the article when they say that some bloggers, on the very bottom rung of blogging, make as little as $10 a post. I need to write the author and tell him/her that there's a rung way below that.

And yes, Melissa, there is awesomeness.

It's a service of the Brewery to mark all the men that aren't worth talking to. They do it for the ladies.

So you'll be selling that thing at the superstore, right?

A severed hand severed unicorn head is sure to fetch a mint.

I personally do not think their causes of death is related solely on blogging but it may have had a minor impact. Regardless, it is always sad to hear about people dieing. May they rest in peace.

Paw, that was brutal. Evidently they mark the hands of the women not worth talking to, too. Again, for the ladies.

I wonder what the health effects are of commenting blogs. ?

Someone in Dallas is desperately needed to run out into traffic and chalk a severed unicorn head around that "x" eye. Seriously.
