Blog-slacking and Hair-styling

You may think you are safe. You may think he will never get you again.

After all, he’s only a mythological monster...

He’s only some brutish, confidence-bashing beast who may have once left drool and spittle puddles under your bed when you were a child. He’s only the imaginary imp you left behind long ago, but who still reminds you of the power of procrastination and of the various intravenous options for caffeine.

If you think he'll never find you again, though, you're wrong. His name is Creative Blog Slackerdome (A.K.A. CBS), and he may, in fact, be at your doorstep now.

According to last week’s research by Up the Creek Without a Platypuses’s only –c, this legendary bully is alive, strong, and still targeting everyone.

“Just yesterday, I felt his presence,” -c over-emphatically revealed.

“I was trying to compose a blog post about Global Warming as it pertains to U.S. political campaigns when… well… I decided to lead an ESL class discussion about the topic and… ehm… He showed up.”

Although our very own reporter, -c, showed signs of increasing heart rate, hightened blood pressure and uncomfortable sweat drippage, we pushed her to tell us more about her unique experience with the omnipresent Creative Blog Slackerdome Beast .

“He somehow managed to redirect the conversation in our ESL class, and we ended up talking about Don Imus, monkey brain consumption in China, Sanjaya's hair and Necrophilia.”

When pressed for further comment, -c simply responded:

“I'll have to write a real blog post later. For now, there is clearly some Spirit of Dark Slackerdome at work here.”

Be careful ... be safe, -c!

That CBS is one scary monster, especially with that Thursday night lineup ...

Duh, huh?

I think the monster has eaten my brain.

Maybe it will grow back.

Dear -c,

I lost my blog site again experimenting around.

I created another named 'noseem' or 'Drufus' or something. I'm working on it. Don't laugh at me.

I enjoyed your post but my mind is apparently all amuddle.

I'm firmly on your side though, whatever our position is on whatever the subject might be.

Finally blogger is going to let me comment! Not that my comments are mind boggling or anything...

I think a necrophiliac Imus makes a lot of sense and is worthy of a chat with ESL students.
