Bonus points if you can determine which Marvel comic series of yesteryear The Hook is referencing. I love being a geek…
As part of my ongoing campaign to drag the internet down one blog at a time, I have launched an attack on the site of the lovely blogger known far and wide as The Mercenary Researcher.
CLICK HERE!!
Some of you may be asking, “Who is this person, Hook? Is she any good? Does she have any talent? Is she worth my time or should I stick to searching the web for Star Wars costumes for my cat? Speaking of which, I think my cats are plotting to kill me, how can I get a date?”
Okay, so perhaps you’re not asking all of those questions…. Which is good, since I have no idea where you can find Star Wars costumes for your cat. Or a date.
However, here’s what I know of my latest blogging victim. From her “About” page:
More to come – If I knew what I was about – I’d not have much to write…
And here it is…
I’m a research librarian, bike commuter, baker, music fiend, lover of reading & books, mother, wife, friend – and many more descriptive adjectives and nouns.
I live in Tucson, AZ and have been a letter and note writing junkie ever since I could put pen to paper. I am grateful for word processors because I have horrid handwriting. My sentence starts out fine, but then it looks like I’ve had some sort of seizure in the middle of writing and it goes downhill from there.
That barely scratches the cool surface that is The Mercenary Researcher, but I shall leave it up to you to visit her corner of the web and lose yourself in her awesomeness.
I will say this: my friend and newest blogging ally has created a digital persona that is wholly unique, something that you just don’t see often enough these days, as most of us seem to be trying to duplicate the success of another. Whether we realize it or not.
She is…
- A mercenary. Soldiers-for-Hire are cool.
- A researcher. If The Big Bang Theory has taught us anything, it is that intelligence is also cool.
- Focused on family. She’ll even unplug when necessary. I admire and respect that about her. I can’t say that about everyone.
- Honest, straight-forward and just plain fun to read! What else is there to say, really?
Why are you still here? Get over to The Mercenary Researcher’s cyber-lair and have a laugh or ten!
Please.
BUT BEFORE YOU GO…
Clicking on the pic below will allow you to enjoy another post by yours truly on the Über-fabulous Indie Chicks site, specifically, their Indie Dicks site.
MEANWHILE, WITHIN THE PAGES OF THE BOOK OF TERRIBLE: I have a headache and I write about it. That’s about it.
The Hook,
On my way to Denise’s magnificent™ blog.
And POUF!
Le Clown
Le Clown,
You are an invaluable patron of the blogging arts, my friend.
Thank you.
The Hook.
The Hook,
And you my friend, have mastered the art of kissing clowns’ asses. I, for one, thank you.
Le Clown
I’ve never kissed anyone’s butt – the wife doesn’t count – but for you, Le Clown, I’m willing to make an exception.
I’m overwhelmed – thank you Hook – now I’m all choked up.
Don’t you make me cry, damn you!
Sniff, Sniff…
I will check her out. Hey! She is right above me!!!! Yoooohoooo!
That’s actually kinda hot, Susie!
Never mind….
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you’ll show up again, although now I’m not so sure…
Settle down there, Hook…
I’ll try….
You know I can’t stay away….
Likewise, Susie!
Let the Hooks name be shouted far and wide, from the Comic Cons of the west, to the Game Stops of the east. At the festivals, in the basements, wherever a poor child is mocked for his “I Grok Spock” t-shirt, or her “authentic sounds lightsaber”, let them know that the Hook is coming.
And he is on their side…
My biggest fan!
Thanks, El Guapo!
Love Denise, of course. Excited to see that you went for it and wrote for the Indie Dicks section too! I am off to read it now!
They’ve posted two of my articles now! You were my inspiration, Becca!
Love Becca, of course!
I’ll be sure to give her a read!
Thanks, Katie!
You’re the best!
Thanks! Hope you enjoy ~
Just read your guest post………you never disappoint!
I try, Janet. I try.
Headed that way right now.
Thanks, Robin!
I would have given her a read anyway as I follow her, but for you Hookster I will double my effort! …….and I’m gone……..
I’ve said it many a time, but you rock, Jackie!
I’d have to concur ~ you ROCK.
Great stuff – I follow her already – a natural partnership may I say!
The Hook AND The Mercenary Researcher! Doesn’t get better than that
Well, we could add a MissFourEyes and all would be right with the world…and you could send me some Indian food and I’d send you some Cheesecake and we’d send The Hook our bill.
Thanks. You ladies are all heart.
Good job guest blogging! Still wearing my cute socks in the winter.
Good for you, Maddie!
An AZ neighbor. Awesome HOOK-up. Look at you connecting me w/my geographical neighbors. I am now leaving Chandler [AZ] to drop in on Tuscan. Thanks for the lead Mr. Hook! Ow!
