Housekeeping! You Want Towels?

This blog is for you, dear readers. So occasionally, I'll have a housekeeping post such as this to point you toward some of the more interactive features of En Tequila Es Verdad and solicit opinions, gripes, questions, and other assorted input. Not that you can't post said opinions, gripes, etc. in the comments at any time, mind you, but sometimes it helps to have a public forum set aside for such things as well. So, speak!

Uno: I'd like to direct your attention to the poll in the column to the left. No, not there. Keep scrolling. It's right above the goat, toward the bottom, there. Don't be distracted by the question that's likely running through your mind right now. It doesn't matter why Dana has a goat on her blog. No, you want to look at the poll. The pretty, pretty poll. You want to vote in the poll. Then we can come back here and talk about the goat.

Dos: Welcome back. Like the goat, don't ye? That, my friends, is the magic of clip art and Microsoft Paint. He's my movie ratings goat, but I like him so much I've bunged him on here. Maybe our next poll will be naming the goat.

And yes, you can make horrific goat jokes if you like. Sigh. I'll begin: got your goat, did I?

Tres: Anyone interested in doing some guest blogging? Only I've eventually got to get some actual fiction writing done, and I'd hate to let my - what is it now, five? ten? - regulars go without their tequila-flavored truth. If you've got something to add, shoot me an email at dhunterauthor at yahoo dot com. If you're not a spambot, I know you'll be able to figure that one out. Heh.

Criteria? Um. Well, snark is important. Left-wing perspective a plus, but not essential - if you're right-leaning but want to call the fuckwits on the extreme far right out for the batshit insane assclowns they are, I'd be pleased indeed to have you. Got a funny story about funny-mentalists? Close brush with pseudoscientific woo? Want to talk about how people react to language? I think by now you've all got the general idea of what this blog's about. You'll think of something. I may be an atheist, but I have faith in you folks.

Quatro: Speaking of you folks, if you've got a blog I haven't linked to but absolutely think I must, send the link to the email so cleverly concealed above. It shall be added forthwith.

Cinco: I need materials, dark or otherwise, for the Short, Sharp Retort. So, two things: if you have a situation you need a snarky, snappy comeback for, Dana wants to hear it. If you have a snarky, snappy comeback for one of the situations presented in our maiden voyage, send it along. Bonus if you have both a situation and a retort!

That should tidy things nicely for now. Hasta luego!
