The Noble Bard writes:<\/p>\n
I know you\u2019re a busy guy, so I guess i\u2019ll have to keep this brief. Both you and my aunt (Simcha Fischer: Creator of the blog \u201cI have to Sit Down\u201d) have inspired me to start my own blog: the Noble Bard<\/a> in an attempt to cheer up people\u2019s days like you so often seem to do. <\/p>\n
P.S. I really have no idea if you remember this at all, but we were the people who sent you this clip that you posted on your blog quite a while back. It\u2019s called: \u201cHey There Obama<\/a>\u201c<\/p>\n
And in case you\u2019re interested, they also recently came out with another which was quite good<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Looks like you are on your way to me. Write about what interests you and nothing else and you will be interesting to read. And, of course, tell the truth. Then you don\u2019t have to remember what you said. If you need a mentor you have a great one in your aunt, who is a fine writer.<\/p>\n
Speaking of whom\u2026 Hey Simcha <\/a>, Tito Edwards <\/a>and Jen Fulweiler<\/a>! Welcome to the Register <\/i>blog! The world needs many more of youse!<\/p>\n
