You Little Tease

Yesterday, that blogging extraordinaire super star, my friend BeckEye dropped a comment on my post about Larry King that caused me to laugh out loud, quite literally. Of course this robust guffaw sent my family into the office to see what the hilarity was all about. And its not the first time that Becks has tickled my funny bone via blog comments. No, no. In fact Becks, you might say, is the "pseduo" reigning co-champ of the prestigious Candy's Daily Dandy Comment Content Comedy Hall of Fame, by way of being last year's runner up. But we'll talk more about that in a second.

When I saw Becks comment I immediately decided to save it for nomination for the Hall of Fame game, then realized, if you weren't blogging with me last November, you will have no idea what I'm talking about. Which means that small tidbits of comment gold are floating around the bloggersphere getting lost in cyberspace. And we can't have that now, can we??

So, if your new to the game, I'll give you the 411.
By now you all know why we do what we do-we blog because we love it! But what fuels the fire, what keeps us going, the crack in the pipe of blogging is the comment. And sometimes they are so funny that you nearly pee you pants from laughing. Last November I held the First Annual Candy's Daily Dandy Comment Content Comedy Hall of Fame which celebrates the brilliance and comedy of the blog comment. And it was quite funny, indeed. I'm sure there have been more than a few that have caused you to shed a tear of laughter, so we celebrate the genius of our blog commenters with an award

I decided to give you people an early heads up and tease the 2nd annual CDD Comment Content Comedy Hall of Fame slated for the first week of November. In the mean time, save those hilarious comments and come November, nominate your favorite one.

Since last years champ, McGone, the King of the comment, has sadly retired from his blogging days and is unable to preform his champion duties, that leaves last years co-runners up, BeckEye and Dr Zibbs as reigning co-champs. To see what all the hub bub is about click here, and if you want to see Becks brilliantly hilarious comment from yesterday click here.

And save those comments for November, because a good laugh is always ezactly what the doctor ordered!

Stay tuned .......

OooOOooOOooh, I already know which comment I'm nominating! :-)

Dr Zibbs said...

Ahhh, the good ole' days of blogging. Where has everyone gone? They were the best of times.

Prunella Jones said...

What a great idea! Most of the time I think the comments I get are way better than my post. Count me in!

Slyde said...

oh, im TOTALLY gonna save my good stuff for then...

BeckEye said...

Well, McGone still comments (and comments well). Is he not allowed to win if he's not a blogger though? Is them the rules? GOOD! With McGone, Pistols, and Falwless out of the way, I plan to corner the market on hilarious comments! (Not counting this one.)

Becky always gives good comment!

Wait, did that come out wrong?

Totally confusing rules.

Regarding your analytics question on my blog this morning, here's what I did: I googled "how to put google anaytics on blogger" and it gave me a whole boat load of step-by-step instructions for getting the code and inserting it into my template HTML. It was really, really easy with the step-by-step instructions. It only took a few minutes and I started getting data from it 24 hours later. I hope that helps! :-)

Hi Candy...

Just wanted to let you (and your readers, if interested) that I've moved. My new site is chris-knucklehead.blogspot.com. The old site no longer exists.

Stop on by, and if you could help me spread the word I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,
Chris

The comments make the blog for me. I don’t care how many views I get as long as I receive a couple great comments. Often times, combined with the retort, and re-retort, they are funnier than the blog itself. You know that when you have to google 3 or 4 things and hit Wiki for a 15 minute research session for a reply, that you’re tapping into comedic gold!
