Where is everyone?


When I set up this blog, I hoped that my family would get excited about it. Apparently NOT. So far, there have been 12 posts… six by me and six by Sam. My posts are hilarious and I’m planning some major revising to Sam’s to try to make them seem a little bit funny. I invited everyone in the family (whose e-mail address I have) to be authors on the blog. After no one seemed to be responding, I took the liberty of calling everyone and below are their responses/excuses:

Dad - "No thanks. Bloggering was how my last computer got all gummed up. I'm not going to pay another $200 to James Mason to have him defrag my hard drive and install free antivirus software."
Mom - "You know Joseph, if you lived closer you wouldn't need a blog to stay in touch."
Codee - “Dad locked the office door ‘cause of Webkins.”
Kevin - “Joseph? Is this really Joseph? How did you get this number? Why are you trying to speak with an English accent?”
Nathan - “Until the blog is monetized with a link to my PayPal account, I’m not wasting my time.”
Cassidee - “People sometimes laugh at the things that I e-mail or say to them saying that I’m ‘SO SARCASTIC’ but, seriously, you are all idiots!”
PJ - “I think it’s stupid and I hate you Joseph.” Then he started pounding me on my back. Trying to avoid further punches, I laid down on the couch and started kicking. He managed to grab one of my legs and pulled me to the ground. We both kicked at each other until PJ landed a perfectly placed kick right between my legs. He also said that he would post something soon.
John - "I tried to call him on Skype like 8 times but it kept saying that he was logged out right after it started to ring.
Sam, “What’s my excuse for not contributing? Take another look at the blog and then call me back and apologize...seriously I want an apology.”
Christin, “Hi Joseph, I will… LUKE WHERE DID YOU GET THAT CAT? WAS ITS FUR SHAVED WHEN YOU FOUND IT? Hey I gotta go…”

If I am going to do something SPECIAL for this FAMILY then I expect some PARTICIPATION!

I have been working for the past 3 hours trying to become a contributor to the shum-not so funny-funny blog. Apart from hacking into the system, which I tried multiple times but was unable to get past the fire hole, I have done everything in my power to become a poster able member of the blog. If Stephanie and I aren't cool enough to be contributors to the so called "family" ([{"blog"}]) then we won't even folow it and will think it's stupid, and will not apologize to Joseph for anything, not even kicking him in the back. I am even considering a law suit for mental anguish and distress and loss of blood from punching the wall when I coudn't hack the system. Here is the list of my demands for the release of my funny blog material:
1. A written apology from each member of the family including children
2. A $10 gift certificate to the GAP
3. One of those things that keep your beer cans cold for my soda
4. Some of those fuzzy dice for my 96 Sunfire

If these demands are not met then I will do nothing!!!!!!!

Not to offend you or anything Joseph, but that face is eerily familiar to PJ's pictures he took at Laramie GM. He took one everyday in the bathroom. I won't elaborate, but I'm sure you can guess what he was doing at the time. Just a heads up on future blog photos because I don't appreciate blatant vulgarity forced on me when I'm trying to support the family by reading this blog.

I would be surprised if my poop face is the most disturbing vulgarity forced on you from this blog.

Stephanie said...

I never said it would be anywhere near the most disturbing thing I will experience on this blog ... disturbing as it is.
