Me and my blog

April 29th, 2008 at 10:15am Georgette Braun

So, I’ve just started this blog.

And I’m so excited, I’m ripping off the B-I-N-G-O song and vow to sing this version of it — “A-S-K Gee-Oh” — when I’m bloggin’ to get my juices flowing. You’re welcome to sing it too when you respond to my blog posts or when you ask me a question that I’ll try to answer.

Anywho, my bosses advised me in my newbie-ness to blogging to post a few comments so you all think I’ve got something to say, even before I get going. So, wanting to keep the paychecks flowing, I’m doing just that.

    I know you wrote in today’s paper that your bosses want to hear” Blogging foster interactive, digital public dialogue….” blah, blah, blah, but this boss kinda prefers YOUR answer: raw and unstructured communication.

    Enjoy the ride on the Web. You’ll have a blast.

    Chris: Tell me how you really feel. What can I do to make my Ask Geo blog worth your while?

    Good luck with the new blog, Geo! Hope you’ll help keep people informed about what’s happening downtown…and that Rockford can be a cool place.

    Heather: Thanks. I’ll try re: downtown. Be sure, too, to read Kim Wheeler’s weekly column about cool stuff downtown, the GO section Monday through Saturday. And feel free to shoot me an email or comment on this blog when you know about cool things going on downtown.

    ASK GO. definetly catchy. A few verses with clapping in all the right places will surely make it a big hit at parties. Maybe a a grammy or rami award winner!

    Geo, don’t let the naysayers get you down. You just keep on keepin’ on. I’ve always wanted a blog like this. Glad you are here. Any concerts coming up for you? I’d be glad to make sure you didn’t tumble down the stairs.

    Chris: Quitting is for quitters. So forgetaboutit!

    Barb: You, too, can participate in the “A-S-K Gee-Oh” vlog. Just e-mail me at gbraun@rrstar.com, and I’ll let you know when I set a day.

    Greg G: Thanks for the support. Next concerts I’m looking forward to, Wing Ding and Puddle of Mudd at Waterfront are outside. No stairs. Hurray

    Wing Ding and Puddle of Mudd? I can’t believe we have this in common! I’ll be looking for you. If I should see you, I hope you’ll let me buy you a beer.

    Greg G….no hitting on Geo!

  • 13. Greg G  |  May 5th, 2008 at 2:47 pm

    Leaf - No hitting, just admiring the woman’s taste in music, that’s all.
