2ND ANNIVERSARY FOR MY BLOG!

Left to Right: Hugh Hefner's main girl Holly Madison, Bridget Marquardt, and Kendra Wilkinson on the occasion of my 2nd BLOG Anniversary. No wait! Just kidding. The girls are actually shown here at the Monte Carlo television festival. But for posterity sake, you know what I mean.

As you might have guessed from the festivities I felt inclined to share chidingly above, my Blog is 2 years old today. And while I was not dressed dapper in red silk pajamas competing with Hugh Hefner, it's the spirit that counts. The story behind the founding of my Blog was that a friend whom I respect dearly suggested, "Hey, Michael! Why don't you get a Blog?" I did so and that was the beginning of a wonderful collection of friendships worldwide. Friday Movie Suggestion Night debuted in mid-September 2005; this was followed by The Annual Steve McQueen Film Festival begun last year (and which pulled out all the stops beginning this past February) that is held in March during the week of Steve's Birthday. Fun Guitarist Profiles has become an encouraging way to honor pioneers of Rock & Roll, while inspiring many in Blogland to take up the instrument! THE INTERVIEW has celebrated Life (and will continue to do so) with a number of wonderful Past Guests ---all of whom are catalogued. We are in a period of abeyance waiting for Future Guests to finish current commitments and then join us for a visit. So, feel free to enjoy some bubbly tonight! Speaking of which, the proper angle when standing with your glass raised is Southwest Ohio bordering Kentucky (for now). Thanks to all of you for inviting me so graciously into your world and adding an abundance of life to my own.
