Otterblog Alert: Surreal Social Networking

Generally, I would never hype my own press (because - uhmm, I don't get a lot except for a few "Huh?"), however, this does fall into the "Cool Things That Happened To Me" Dept.   Yours truly was featured on notable blog FourFour for the "Sitcom Sketch" I did a few months back.   Ya see - the highly talented and profiled writer of that blog, Rich, created the supercuts for the "I'm Not Here To Make Friends" part (which was popularized as a feature on "This American Life").  So, a certain sexy bird dropped him a line about my peice and I wound up on there in all my freakish glory, pink bandana and the local punchline for uhmm, a "men's spa" and all.    Gosh!!  It was like life imitating blogs imitating reality tv imitating something!   In any case, I am truly honored to have my shout out from the meme's creator...

Otterblog Alert: T.V. Party at Otter's

Just another ho-hum night at my place watching "Must See TV", getting my fill of reality shows and gearing up for sweeps... However, I really start to wonder if T.V. is lowering our collective I.Q. (aka Jersey Shore??) as well as pandering to the most common denominator of fame and money.   And worse - is it making us anti-social?  Is T.V. our friend or our worst enemy?  Well, luckily, I use the almighty power of syndication and a little help from my friends at a certain Boston Bar, I turn the "T" in Teevee into "Teamwork" and the "V" into... well, uhh... "Vavvvooommm!"....  Watch my number at the April Bacon Strip for "Sitcom" Bacon Strip.  Again - fabulously shot video done by the great Pwaless.  Be sure to friend BaconStrip on Facebook for more great videos...
