I am seeking somebody who can help me put shit up on my blog. I have a difficult time figuring out how to do certain things. As a result, my site, while awesome, is less awesome than it could be. If there is somebody out there who wants to volunteer, please leave a comment here and I will respond. Candidates should have exceptional blog-making skills and no desire/need to actually hang out.
Seeing as how my experience with you at the ipod vending machine at the DFW airport was dissapointing, I personally have no desire to ever hang out with you in person. I also enjoy this blog and have endless hours to devote to being your blog-henchman. I also have a few kilts.

Also, I can be reached @ 555-1222 or [email protected]. Please DO NOT show up at my house.

I actually blog for a living (yes, a minority of folks actually can do that) and know the Typepad publishing platform. Much of what I write about is either soul-crushingly serious or soul-suckingly (sic) shallow. So an opportunity to voluntarily assist you on occasion with one of the funnier blogs I've read in a while would be a welcome respite from the murder trials and UFO stories. And the UFO murder stories, etc.
In spite of being a pasty, temperamental ginger-haired type born into a family of drunken ballad-singing pugilists, however, I am afraid I do not own any kilts.
You can click my name to get to my Typekey profile, and my e-mail address is in the e-mail link at the top of that page. This'll work, too -- steve [at] randomlunaticnews.com.

I forgot to add that I have no desire to hang out with anyone, ever, for any reason.

I have one of just about every type of blog available. I am blog whore. Do I use them all? No. But I can work those bitches.
I also have ready access to someone (husband) who is a Mac expert, and knows serious shit about streaming audio/video content across the net. He also has excellent web design skills, as in he can make the pretty as well as the functional. Something most so-called web design geeks can't do for shit.
Since it's what's inside your pretty head I adore, and you share it here so willingly, I have no need to hang out with you in person.

Sorry! I can barely keep up with my own blog and various internet profiles. Also, since you are in LA I am going to find you and hang out with you at the finest hookah bar in the land. I hope you will be dressed as a caterpillar FYI.

HAHAHAHAHAHA! Oh man. Your disclaimer is a riot.

I helplessly desire desperately to spend the necessary time cross pollinating with you. Therefore, I wouldn't be the optimum candidate to fulfill your blogging request. However, if you change your mind, PLEASE have your people contact my people.

Michael,
Your blog has provided so many hours of entertainment for me that I feel duty-bound to volunteer. I'm a software engineer and spend all day doing computery things, so I can be a great resource for web development.
More importantly though, I played 2/5 with you a few times at a certain private, members-only club in Midtown on 3rd Ave (which no longer exists). That we're both part of the same closely guarded network of poker players speaks well of our potential to have a meaningful working relationship. Oh yeah, you and Showalter were hillarious at the Music Hall of Williamsburg.

Dear Mister Michael Ian Black,
I like Freecell and raccoons. If picked, I will give the public what it wants: pictures of kittens and photoshopped pictures of kittens with Michael Ian Black.
You are amazing!

I just think you're funny. I'll totally sing in our rock band though.

Happy to help out in any way you need. I'm a longtime fan of your comedy and your blog. I also designed (and manage) the most comprehensive humor website on the web, ChuckleDumper.com, where I've often linked to your musings. Shoot me an e-mail and we can talk.

This is like a contest where the prize is doing work for free. So you've got to be obsessed enough to want to do it, but not so obsessed that you actually try to interact with "the talent." Because heaven forbid a celebrity of your stature be forced to mingle with someone who would jump at the chance to help you out.
Nooooo thanks. I got no interweb skillz anyway, but maybe one of these days I'll win a chance to wash your car! *fingers crossed*

I think he meant hanging out on the blog and commenting,not in real life.
Sincerely,
Michael Ian Black's mouthpiece

*I* think when he said "no desire/need to hang out" he meant: "no desire to stalk". (Whiiiiiich pretty much rules out a lot of us losers).

I'd do it if I could figure out how to leave a comment.
Posted by: Matt S | June 02, 2008 at 05:31 PM
Mr. Black,
As a child I was born without most of my teeth. But I managed to struggle through all of that adversity and become the leader of the free world (of Africa).
In conclusion, I am just commenting to make noise.

I'd like to throw my hat into the volunteer ring. You can always pick up said hat, inspect it, test it out and throw it back if it doesn't meet your awesome blogging needs.

Hey I'm not interested in helping out.
Best,

I know. Kick ass, right?

I can't help you with your blog, but I can tell you who you should choose to help you and that is Diane because I like kittens and you photoshopped into pictures with kittens, and my vote counts as all votes since no one else voted.
And I just want to give a shout out to Josh Hartnett because I saw that he commented, and I just wanted to let him know I still love him even after all these years.
