Dear [Spirited Wife],

I'm thinking of starting up my blog again. In
order to attract new readers, would it be OK if I
post some nude pictures of you?

Thanks!
xoxo

Fine. But won't you feel guilty that no one's
reading my blog?

no readers? pish! how about some bike porn instead?

Freewheel said...

Meghan, thanks for the bike porn. Very hot, yet safe for work.

P.S. - It's time to bring back your blog!

Why not run a readers' photo contest?

Freewheel said...

That's a great idea. Should I request submissions of nude photos or bike porn?

You know, I don't think I've ever read a more hilariously accurate and concise description of the dyanamic between a male blogger and his non-blogging lady. Pretty much perfectly sums it all up.

Welcome back!

Thanks, Hammer, and thanks for commenting. I recall that you some good beer advice for me awhile back.

You should give the readers some latitude in what they offer, but you can suggest they would get bonus points for nudity or bicycle-related content. (I got some hot underwear pictures from more exhibitionistic readers of my blog, but no actual nudity. These pictures were largely wasted on Hughman and me, but we had fun anyhow).

DH, I'm thinking it over. ;)
