It seems like everybody is celebrating a blogiversary these days. Suzy is celebrating her first, and Crummy Church Signs just celebrated its third. Well, I guess that's only two. Not really a trend, is it?
Anyway, my own blog is now roughly a year old. I say "roughly" because as with Jesus, historians aren't sure of the exact date of its birth. Historians also seem to be uncertain what the name of this blog is exactly. Is it Mattress Police? Antisocial Commentary? MattressPolice (Antisocial Commentary)? Mattress Police Antisocial Commentary Cougar Mellencamp?
This blog started out as MattressPolice.com. "Antisocial Commentary" was sort of a tagline, like with the X-Files movie, which wasn't really called X-Files: Fight the Future, despite what the posters said. Then it split into four different blogs, all under the Mattress Police rubric, like the time that Superman died and split into four different guys, one of whom went on to be the subject of a horrible movie with Shaquille O'Neal. The main one of these four was The Secret Files. There was also Mattress Police Dispatches, Central Booking (my reading log) and Deep Cover (my serious blog). Then I killed Dispatches and renamed The Secret Files to Mattress Police - Antisocial Commentary. Central Booking and Deep Cover still exist, although I removed the links to them, so they're just about impossible to find.
Then I wrote a book incorporating as many of these names as I could fit on the cover: Antisocial Commentary: From the Secret Files of the Mattress Police.
So, for the record, the name of this blog is: Mattress Police - Antisocial Commentary. I don't plan on changing it again. I think.
Ok, so the point of this post was to thank some of the people who have supported me along the way. Many of these people are listed under Adjutant Inspectors (now down there on the right, due to complaints about my blog loading slowly). Thank you to everyone who has linked to me, bought my book, signed up for the humor-blogs.com referral program or left encouraging comments.
I particularly want to thank Joel from the aforementioned Crummy Church Signs and the gang from Central Snark. I probably would have given up on this a while ago if it weren't for you cats. Thanks!
Also, I have finally promoted Nothing to See Here to Adjutant Inspector rank. I've been meaning to for a while, but I was finally guilted into doing it by his insanely positive review of Antisocial Commentary.
I'll be back tomorrow with the caption contest results.
