Last Post Ever? Thank Goodness!

I think it may be time to close the door on the blog and let it stand for eternity. We started this little blog on October 3, 2010, a month after my son was born. He did make one appearance to my recollection, and of course, it is a terrible picture of him. Any of you friends with me on Facebook knows I have way too many pictures of him.
But really this blog was to have fun with Brent and Corrin's wedding. I know I did and I hope that you did as well. We made some really great photoshop pictures of them:

We talked a lot about destinations for the wedding, bachelor party, and even honeymoon. Did they take any of my advice? No, of course not. Am I upset? You betcha. Are they going to hear about it at the wedding? Oh, you know it.

We have single-handily tried to revive the career of Vanilla Ice. We named B and Corrin's triplets: Abernathy, Bernard, and Carl.

At the moment there are 7,211 page views with 868 of those going to "Suck On This Kate & Will  *OR* How To Go Overboard." 31 people have found us by searching for "ugly wedding." 19 have found us by searching "3 cows."

We've recounted some stories about a younger B. We've talked about how awesome I am.
We even thought of a game to play at the wedding:
There have been 128 posts total. 33 tags for Vanilla Ice. The Stig, Ben Savage, Oprah, Ed Hardy, Paul Bunyan, Lance Ito, and Kris Kross have all been mention over the past 128 posts.

I was not sued, but I did lose the chance to earn some money from the blog. Paul swears that I am Corrin's enemy #1. I think I'm probably #3. Behind who? I am not quite sure.

Really this blog was here to entertain and not offend anyone. We were just a joke that took on it's own life. I have been careful to not release too much information about the actual wedding that I know. I will not be posting any wedding pictures here unless asked by the bride and groom.

In all seriousness, it has been a lot of fun to write this blog, especially when I had the inspiration to do so. Big thanks to Greg Kathol who helped with some ideas upon occasion and made the most comments over the course of time. Granted, you wouldn't know it was him with his pseudonyms.

Last of all, congratulations to Brent and Corrin. As mentioned before, I've known B since 7th grade some 20+ years ago. I could not count the hours I have spent with the guy and while we now go months without seeing each other, it doesn't matter. Our little crew of B, Paul, Greg, and myself have been hanging out for those 20 years and we always have a good time wherever we are.

B has always played it cool with the people in his life. He has never been the most outgoing guy, but he has always known what he wanted. Corrin has opened him up a bit and given him someone to share his life with. I am honored to be in the wedding and excited to see you both next week. They are good for each other and will lead a long and happy life together. I wish you only the best and a heartfelt congratulations.

Long live the Downward Spiral!
