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!

And that’s how we’re rollin’ in o&j world tonight.

You heard that title right.  You better just sit down and hold on to your pants, because things are about ready to go boom around this place.  You see, my dear dear fine people of blogville, I’m about to hit you over the head with another installment of, like, a billion blog posts.  Why spread them out and make it all easy for you when I can just make it explode in front of you with a gajillion totallysweet samplesnaps for your eyes to eat all up?!

That was one of them rhetorical questions, as I’m not really looking for an answer to it.  All I know is that if I don’t get all of these images up tonight, I’m going to have some serious explaining to do tomorrow, and I’m going to get the stink eye from a certain person whose name rhymes with the letter  K and the letter C.  I’m also gonna get a serious ‘what the french, toast?’ from somebody whose name rhymes with Jay and me.

So, as to avoid those things, I ask you now to make sure that you are in the seated position.  That your pants are on tight.  That you don’t have any sharp objects near you (safety first.)  But…before we do that…we need to give an absolutely huuuuuge MuchLove & ManyThanks to each and every person that we’re about to put up here on lovely Land of Blog!  All of you make us look so, so good – and there are no amount of digital hugs & love that would completely…I don’t even know where I’m going with that sentence, so I’m just going to tell you thank you!  Oh, and to you – my faithful Friends of Blog, be sure to – Enjoy!

And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget
Falls drop by drop upon the heart,
And in our own despite, against our will,
Comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God
