Couldn't Say it Better Than This!

I've never met Brian Moloney in person but we 'see' each other every day through our blogs. He sure says it all today, just in the first paragraph of The Freelance Retort:

If Christmas eve is like floating on a calm see, peering up into the stars…and Christmas Day is like a rogue wave that knocks you off your feet and envelops you into a deep dark sea of confusion…then the day after Christmas is like sitting in a puddle, on a muddy shore, picking sea shells out of your bathing suit. Beat up, tossed around… recovering from a thrill ride, all at the same time....

And as I say, that's before he even gets to the stuff he illustrates with the above cartoon. You can check out the whole piece here. Every day he brings me a smile!Now back to picking up after our own fun yesterday, blurry as it was.....Finally, here's a video taken when mischievous little Mr Rabbit Ears was a baby himself and mystified by all the hub-bub.[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7SVfdvNqN8]

Heeeeere's Brian!

Rather than inflict any more Irish moroseness on the world today, I'd like to turn things over to a friend who just proposed himself as my co-host.I met this friend last June and found him unforgettable.Well actually I've really only met him here. I have never met him met him.So click here to read what he has to say today. He's the only person I know who also thinks morris dancing is funny which it is.I read his every post and have infected him, he claims, with the notion that we should keep writing as often as we can even though it sometimes feels as though WE are the tree falling in the forest that nobody hears.His name is Brian Moloney, spelled just that weird way with an O and not like the way we REAL Maloneys spell it. (Maloney was my grandmother's name) but kin all the same.He seems always happy, like this crowd of Moloneys whose picture was taken in 1910.(Quite a contrast to my sad mom and her sad sibs if you remember the photo taken the same morning! It's here if you don't.)Plus he makes bad puns on the word Yule (See above).Anyway he always makes me laugh every time, so check him out. For sure his pictures are way more fun than my pictures.
