As of this posting, my blog is worth $1,693.62. I’m not really sure how it’s worth anything, but the little box to the bottom left of this post says it’s worth the afore mentioned amount.
As of this posting, Greg Farr’s blog is worth $14,113.50. WOW! INCONCIEVABLE!
One of my strengths is competition. I love to compete win. I know it’s not a competition with Greg as I am not in his league. He is everywhere! His posts are on numerous sites and he is quoted often in other blogs.
To give you an analogy, and let’s face it you knew we would eventually get to analogies on this post, Greg’s blog and writing skills are definitely D1. My blog and writing skills are so, how shall we put this, NAIA or even D3 if you will.
Greg Farr : The University of Texas : : Greg Bicknell : Appalachian State
Okay, I picked Appalachian State because that means there is hope for me.
Words can be so powerful when strung together in just the right way. And believe me, I don’t always string them together appropriately and the redpencilpoliceperson (aka my wife) comes to the rescue. Greg has such a gift. He has the gift to push your buttons. To provoke you. To make you angry. What a gift. The gift that makes you think.
My goal is to someday put enough words together in a most coherent way so that you, the reader, will want to buy what I have to sell. That is, buy my blog. I want a new car. A small foreign convertible. I have a picture if you want to see it… it’s sweet. If only I could write like Greg Farr, but for now… I’m competing against Greg and other’s like him… and I’m out of my league.

The English teacher in me is loving the last statement.
Dear Greg,
You need to change the name of your blog. You are definitely NOT out of your league! I admit that your post about the globe shaped building and your obsession with circles left me dizzy…but I love your blog.
Regarding the money, it will grow. (But since I feel sorry for having so much, I’ll buy you lunch at the next opportunity). Don’t worry, tho, you WILL get that car. And a convertible is the perfect car for you! You can ride anytime with the top down and NEVER mess up your hair!
Keep recording on your blog. Keep writing posts. It gets better and better. Besides, someday I’ll retire and I promise to leave you my entire Blog Fortune…(I’ll also throw in all my Monopoly winnings and Dr Pepper can collection which is good for lots of $10 off Six Flags tickets).
I need to clarify. I love the last statement because it ties in to the title of this blog. I don’t think my husband is out of his league at all. In fact, I think he’s the best thing since sliced bread
