Happy weekend?

Did y'all have a good time this weekend? I went to Brigantine, New Jersey. I love that little island.

I just want to say that I now have 302 subscribers to my YouTube channel. The notion that all those strangers want to see me piss and moan about my problems (above, most pathetically) is hard to fathom. Has television really gotten that bad? Soon I'll be starting a poetry project on YouTube. That should get people really excited. Poetry's hot hot hot. I'll ask for audience participation, so get ready with your favorite poems.

Oh, and you don't actually have to watch this video. You can see from the still shot that I look like crap, hence my amazement that people would want to watch.

LATER: Hero of the Day, submitted by a faithful TTWS reader!
