This evening at dinner, my 10-year-old son Ben offered an unsolicited review, “Your blog is funny sometimes.” Hmm, “sometimes.” I needed to explore further.
Asking him for an example, Ben provided an instance of blog funniness, “I liked the elevator story” (http://cookiesbydave.com/quick-exit/). Yep, that one was pretty decent.
Still needing something more to dispel the negative connotations associated with “sometimes,” I asked, “What would be my blog’s percentage on ‘Rotten Tomatoes?'”
Ben got a worried look on his face. “They are pretty rude in their scoring.” Fine, fine, I know. What would my score be? Ben considered the question and provided a score, “93%.”
Wow! 93! That’s great! I was thinking more like 73 or less.
Then, I suddenly became concerned. I didn’t have any material today worthy of a 93% approval on Rotten Tomatoes.
I would need some outside help, so today I provide to you this awkward yoga illustration.
I find it blog worthy, since the author made a point to include a belly button.
Yep, 73% does seem more appropriate.
73% is still “fresh.”
Love it :0)
