Due to a technological breakthrough, we are now able to answer that question.  Please sit back, and watch through the eyes of Otis how the world appears!

OK.  I’ll admit it.  I’ve been slacking on the blog of late.  It’s kind of one of those OCD things, where things get out of control, and then they get even further out of control, and then my brain can not process just how out of control that everything is, and then in some weird state of mind I decide the best thing to do is to ignore the problem, and the irony being that this is only making the process worse, and then when I look again at what stands before me, what had been a small hill is now a gigantic mountain of blog that needs to be done.

So, this is my ‘rock-bottom’, as it would be.  So, the only direction left from here is up.  And up we shall go.  We shall travel to all sorts of places (mostly the FunCenter) and we will meet all sorts of new people on this adventure that we are about to embark upon.  Your minds will be blown by what is about to hit you over the head.

For those of you that may have thought we have just not been all that busy, or we haven’t had that much going on – think again.  You don’t believe me?  Well, you’re about to be proven wrong.  Because there’s – in no particular order – about a bajillion happy pictures that are going to be smacking you up one side of your head and then down another.

Before I get to the farewell part of this post, I would like to extend the most unbelievable MuchLove to each & every person that you are about to see – without you, we are nothing.  I’m just a cook in a crappy restaurant, and Queen James is still a Sandwich Artist at Subway (not that there’s anything wrong with either of those professions, it’s just that the photo-graphy is more fun, and you don’t smell like onions at the end of the day.)

So, sit back, relax, give yourself about an hour of time go go through all of this (and, by the way, this process is probably going to take a little bit of time to get done, so keep on checking back), and be sure to – Enjoy!

Then we have good news!  All you gotta do is just e.mail us at info@otisandjames.com with the pose number(s) you would like, and we’ll e.mail them right off to you – easy as that!

So, what are you waiting for – send those e.mails!

MuchLove!

We are filled with sadness.

Again, it’s been far too long since we’ve last talked.  But I told you, we’re going to do this more often.  And starting right now.  So, what I’m about to hit you over the head with are a bunch of beautiful supersamplesnaps that have been taken over the past few…well…months.  Yeah.  we have some catch-up to do.  As my third grade teacher Ms. Greene used to say, we’re going to have a ‘ketchup & mustard day.’

Now, I just liked that sound of that because it made me think of hamburgers & hotdogs, both a delicious part of life.  At the time, I didn’t realize that this meant that we had fallen behind in her lesson plan, and we needed to cover some serious ground before we graduated into the fourth grade.  Now, that really has nothing to do with much of anything, other than it was just what popped into my head at this given moment, and any true citizen of blogville will know that most of the words that go up on these digital pages are just what randomly pops into my head.  Well, now that we’ve had that detour into my brain, back to the business at hand.

So, catch-up we will do.  There have been many many people that have passed through the doors of the FunCenter over the last couple of months, and we would like to give them all a huge digital-hug, and a big ol’ mess of MuchLove for giving us some of their sweet and precious time!  Without you, we truly are nothing at all!  Really.  I would be exposed as the dripski that I truly am without each & every one of you backing me up saying, ‘we know you’re a drip, but we still like you!’  So for that, I’m eternally grateful.

So, without any further delay, I invite you to sit back, relax, and get ready to see some visual goodness that is pretty much guaranteed to knock your socks off – again, not because of anything that we’ve done, it’s because each & every one of the good peeps featured in these coming blogs are all so beautiful!  And you, the faithful of blog that have stuck with us through thick and thin – Enjoy!

I’m just going to ask this question myself, because I know it’s what a fairly large percentage of the Good People of Blog (GPOB’s, if you will) have been thinking.  Well, I don’t really have any sort of an answer, other than to say that we’ve been busy.  Now, I know that if you were to judge how busy we’ve been by the number of new blog posts that have gone up in the past month or so, you would most likely think that I’m living in some sort of an imaginary world where everything is opposite.  Where ‘busy’ actually means that we’ve been sitting on the big read comfy couch in the basement, watching the paint dry, the wallpaper peel, and the banana’s go brown.

But rest assured, my dear dear citizens of blogville, this has been far from the case.  And, as proof of this statement, I’m going to start whacking you over the head with about a gajillion new blog posts over the coming hours/days/etc.  I have no idea how long it’s going to take for us to get truly caught up on this thing called blog, but I promise you that we are going to do just that.

What’s that you’re saying?!  Is that a collective ‘I’ll believe it when I see it’ that I hear?!  I don’t blame you.  Nope, not one bit.  But I want to prove you wrong.  Normally that would be a bad thing, but in this instance, it’s gonna be a good thing.  So, for all of you that have been waiting patiently [ed. I don’t even think that patiently is a term to use for it.  There really is no term.  They’ve just been sitting their waiting.  Heck, I think that some of these seniors are just about to graduate from College.  But whatevs – go back to your rambling.] the time has come.

Now, I invite all of you to sit back, relax, grab some food & drink, put on some comfy clothes, clear about an hour from your schedule and be witness to a whole, whole, whole, whole lotta pictographic love – in absolutely no particular order.  We’re back, my babies, and we’re rocking.  Straight up.  Oh, and by the way – Enjoy!

Yes yes yes.  I know what you’re thinking.  You’re thinking that we’ve shut it down for the winter.  That we’ve gone into a cave somewhere and are to be woken come spring.  Well, the only cave we’ve been dwelling in is the cave known as the super-top-secret basement lair at the Otis & James FunCenter.  And I assure you, as much as we would like to, there has been no hibernation occurring.  That will have to wait until after the New Year.  Because until then, we’re going to be rocking AND rolling.  24/7, 365.  I ain’t jive talking you either.  I’m giving you the straight dope.

What’s that?  You don’t believe me?  Well, how ’bout I hit you up over the head with a bajillion new bloggers for you to feast your eyes upon.  Will you believe me then?  Because it’s been mad crazy around this here FunCenter, and we gots the pics to back up these claims.

So, I invite you to waste some time and take a look at all of these wonderful pics that are about to go up!  This isn’t all of them, but I didn’t want your eyeballs to explode with the goodness that is about to be transmitted through them.  Safety first, right?  OK.  With that in mind, we gotta give a huge huge HUGE MuchLove & ManyThanks to each & every person that has come through the doors of the FunCenter over the past…oh…however long it’s been since we’ve put any of these bloggers up.  And to you – my good peeps of Blog that have been waiting oh so patiently for new pics to go online – Enjoy!
