In her “Love Letter to the Blogosphere,” Michelle Malkin mentions how she met two IMAO fans while at Berkeley (one of whom, I suspect, still owes me a Peace Gallery photo). When do I get to meet my fans? I’m even funnier and cooler in person. Meeting me would be an experience people would remember forever… like meeting the pope.
Well, I’m sure one day I’ll be popular enough to go on tour, blogging in the center of a stadium to sold out audiences. They’ll be like, “I wonder what’s he typing?”
And, “I bet it will be funny.”
And I’ll be like, “Shut up! I’m trying to blog! And stop looking over my shoulder.”
Man, that’ll be so cool.
First1 Michelle Malkin is a major babe!
I concur with bubba.
MM called you one of her “favorite funny bloggers”. Wow. That’s huge.
I don’t know, Frank. I’d be kinda insulted that she didn’t call you her “absolutely, positively favorite funny blogger.”
And why didn’t she mention you first?
Hey Frank,
I’m a fan, and going to be in the watered-down state of Florida soon to visit family. What city are you in again? Melbourne?
I sat here and tried to think of a cool, anonymous-sounding name for myself like your other comment posters, but, alas, I am just not that creative I guess….
Oh, I forgot to mention…doesn’t “Michelle Malkin is a major babe” kinda sorta somewhat maybe diminish her intelligence and accomplishments? One of which being mentioning FrankJ in her article?
That’s me! I figured I needed some extra coolness when I met Michelle Malkin (cause she’s so awesome) so I brought my NTM shirt. I took a picture with her while wearing it, and yes, it’s getting sent to you, Frank!
Oh and Frank, if you’d get over to Berkeley (or heck, just California in general, we’d travel), then you’d get to meet some of your super cool fans! =)
I don’t think “major babe” and “diminished intelligence” are synonymous…I am a major babe with two major babe-ettes and I be very smart. There are lots of women who are actually “major babes” BECAUSE they are intelligent and have accomplished much. I’m just sayin.
Yes you are BM, and your SK is too.
yea… Major Babe Intelligencia!
Frank, unless i’m mistaken, you’ve met one of your fans (and her Bikermommy) a couple times and even stayed at her house. 🙂
speaking of her, maybe she should accompany you when you meet your fans, especially the female ones. it’s easier to dig her claws into your arm and punch any females who tried to get close enough to touch you.
not that she’s jealous or anything.
Hey! I resemble that remark, or something like that. BTW a “major babe”
is defined as a “babe” plus other admirable qualities and intelligence has to be included in the inherent qualities of women who are imbued with “major babeness”
If you cave to SarahK now Frank, you will no longer be Frank J., but forever after you will be known as Frank K.
I live on the other side of DC from Michelle, so I’m not too far. I grew up in MD, and if she is ever interesting in picking some crabs with me sometime, I’ll treat.
Humph – I seem to recall sending a few emails saying it would be cool to meet. Apparently you’ve been talking to my probation officer. But it’s all lies! They were typed up on an IBM Selectric stolen from the Texas National Guard!
But you choose to ignore me. This ronin is upset.
And I’m even closer to you now – when I last wrote I was working in Miami, and now I’m working in Juno Beach! And I might add, for a company that’s directly responsible for whether your computer works or not tomorrow (hint hint).
So call me! Or something. I’m travelling on an expense account, so we can hit all the hot places in Melbourne! Whoo whoo!
(Okay, I’ve been to Melbourne – and I can’t say I found a hot place there.)
Can a Major Babe get promoted to Colonel Babe… or even General Babe?
I’m an IMAO fan! Why don’t I get to meet Michelle Malkin? pout
Or Frank J.? Or SarahK? You guys were in my state (although several hours’ drive away) and everything! more pouting
or even President Babe?
OMG! Michelle Malkin for President!
Yes! Now that would be so cool!
Either the Everglades just froze over or a certain FLA blogger is skating on thinner ice than he knows…
He’ll be lucky if he gets off with whopping long-distance telephone charges tonite :-p
songstress7, next time, i promise, if you drive out to meet us, i’ll sign an autograph and everything. 😉
ok, anyway, we can have a meal together or something. which state? we’ve been in 3 together.
She owes you peace gallery photos, but even if she gives you like 7 of them, you won’t put them up! Ahem I sent you like 7 of them! Where are they!
Frank
If you ever come to the Maryland area, you are more then welcome to come my way. It would be cool to meet you I must say.
Well, jeez Frank,
if I’d have known that you wanted to meet fans I would have told you to visit the NAU dorms while you were in northern Arizona.
Well, feel free to drop by any time you like.
NAU!!! that’s where i want to go to school (even took a campus tour and got accepted and everything)!!! when we were driving thru Flag, i was even telling Frank that i wished we had time to run by the campus because it’s so beautiful.
NAU? Nah. It’s cold uppa there (not Minnesota cold, but still).
Come to the UA in Tucson instead. We’ve got palm trees! I changed my mind from NAU to UA after visiting Flagstaff one March. Brr! Ya think the North Rim was cold in September?
Plus you get to call yourself a “Wildcat” the rest of your life after attending here. MUCH much better than a “sun-devil” (ASU–fer cryin’ out loud) or whatever NAU students call themselves…
If you ever make it up by DC, you’ve got a free place to stay! BTW, Where is my damn Chomps T-Shirt… I’ve gotta hippy chomsky loving drummer in one of my bands to piss off!
