Life, the universe, pies, hot-pink bunnies, world domination, and everything
Step right up to receive your welcome pie and ask the old hands what’s going on around here. First, though, please read The Rules. You might also glance at The HG2MB (Hitchhiker’s Guide to MuseBlog).

1 – You are hereby warned by PoPoPo #2 to um… er… NOT POPOST! Hehe. I’m not sure if I know you, and you might need to be fined already, but since I’m not sure, I won’t fine you until I know you need to be. But anyway, that was a pointless post.

Whoops. Sorry for the double post, but I forgot to say to the newbies that might find their way to this thread and are probably older than me:
We are so crazy
We are so weird
If you are not, too
We are to be feared!
But if you’re crazy
And you are weird
Welcome aboard, and
Soon
You won’t
Feel as weird
Because we’re weird too
And stuff
But I’m not a very good rhymer
As you can see
And my rhythm is failing right now
So maybe I should just stop this darn poem
*contemplates*
Yeah, I think I’d better
Okay
I will
NOW THIS POEM
IS AT
AN ENNNND
!!!!!!!

Welcome, everyone! Tis Purple Panda! Yay!
I’ll copy and paste my description of some of the MuseBlog stuff that I wrote in the previous thread.
MuseBlog is, as the title suggests, a place where “musers mingle,” and talk about “stuff.” We talk about things in the magazine, and other random things. Every few days there will be a new thread where we can all discuss.
The awesome amazing GAPAs (Great and Powerful Administrators) (or OEADS) (or MAP), who moderate every post before it is shown here. They are: Rosanne Spector, Robert Coontz, Paul Baker, and Rebecca Lasley.
Musers can’t post pictures on the blog, but if you would like a picture to be shown on the blog, you can email it to the GAPAs and they can put it on for you (if they choose to). The January Jubilee thread, part 2 had a lot of pictures of muses that people carved out of soap, and all those pictures were sent to the GAPAs before they were put on the website.
The best way to find out what’s going on here, I think, is to just look around. Read other things on the fan page, read previous threads, etc.
Welcome! *pies*
CTTTTHMV (Common Thread Type Things That Have Many Versions):
–Random threads. Every month there is a new random thread. This month’s thread is called “January Jubilee.” It always shows up at the top of the page when you first come to MuseBlog, and it has a picture with it. The random thread usually has many versions (part 1, part 2, part 3, etc.) I actually made a graph of all the random threads, now that I think of it. Maybe I’ll send it to the GAPAs. Well, anyway, the random threads are random, because no muser could live without a random thread. (Well, we could. no, wait. maybe. Um, hmm. I think I’m just confuzzling myself).
-Discussion threads: Discussion threads were created last year, as an alternative to the random thread. Some musers were getting agitated about the random thread, and how nobody could keep a discussion. So we created discussion threads, (morphing chameleon threads), where we would talk about something, and you had to talk about that thing, not go off on some thing saying, “OMGFIRSTPOSTKEWLIHADAGOODDAYINSKOOLTODAY” Discussion threads sometimes have different versions, but usually there aren’t very many.
-Muse Roll Call/Discussion: Every month, there is a muse roll call and a discussion on that issue of muse. There aren’t (usually) different parts of that, but they occur every month.
-Pie Wars: The continuing pie war never ceases, and every once and awhile there is a new thread for it.
-RRRs: Round Robin ‘Riting is a thread where one person writes part of a story, then another person writes the next part, then another person writes the next part, etc. They’re really fun (although I can never get around to doing it because of stupid homework), and the finished products are really cool.
-Birthday Threads: Every month, there is a birthday thread were every wishes a happy birthday to all musers who have birthdays that month. On the day of each person’s birthday, there is also a thread telling everyone to go to the birthday thread to wish everyone a happy birthday. It’s a museblog tradition to wear the person’s favorite color on their birthday.
-Writing/Reading: There are always Writing, Reading, Poetry, Songs, etc. threads floating around the blog. Musers like literature.
-Money-related: Whenever there are muses for sale on Ebay or there is information about the muser-loves-company store, there is usually a thread about it.
That’s all I can think about at the moment…but I’m sure there’s more.

You ask them, nicely. If they think it’s a good idea and/or there’s a lot of Blogger support for it, they’ll make the thread.

HEY! 
A lot of MBers seem to have animal names. This could mean that they like animals, meaning there should be a thread where we can talk about weird animal behaviors we have seen, such as the (ahem) Fox! Yes, FOX that I saw running through my neighborhood on monday.
Anyways, what does anyone think?
I hope it’s all right for a sort-of newbie to request a thread! I must say, it seems like I have been a MBer for years.
E.S. (extra post): If any newbies don’t feel like they are being properly welcomed, let me know. We could have a big virtual party, and feather and Koko would come over with virtual donuts and virtual pie.
E.E.S.: I think I will wrap this post up.
E.E.E.S.: Yes, I think I will.
E.E.E.E.S.: I will! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! My longest post

48 – There was a fox den in the back of the woods behind the park next to my house. My family and I saw the fox about five or six times. Once, my sister was complaining that she wanted to be a vegetarian and then the fox came through the front yard with a bunny in tis mouth. My mom said that being vegetarian was mainly a human thing, as you can see. Twas fr00dy because it was my freind and me who discovered the fox den!
47 – You’ve memorized that? Woah.

Whoa. Lots of newbies seem to be popping up. Well, welcome!
Everyone seems to have been sufficiently pied, but it wouldn’t be polite not too. So, *pies*. I am having a 6 day weekend, so I am exuberantly happy. And my best friend is off on a model UN trip to the capital (she’s representing Belgium, to my supreme amusement), so I’ll probably be here a lot in the next two days. Ok, some advice:
Things not to do:
1. Post pointless things. You will be sought out by the Pointless Post Police.
2. Request a lot of different threads constantly. It gets annoying. Not to discourage requesting threads, but try some existing ones first.
3. Disclosing personal information regarding identity or location. It’s a no no.
4. Cursing. Don’t do it.
5. Flame wars(i.e. getting into a long fight with someone and ending up personally insulting them)

the GAPAs put you on the who’s here list whenever they feel like it. It basically depends on how lazy they are. Sometimes they’ll put newcomers on as soon as they see them, and sometimes they have to be reminded many times before they get around to it. There’s nothing in particular you have to do except nag them until they do it.

Hey! It got all lined up on the wall! It was supposed to be a hawk. The first line was over for the top of his head, then the third line was indented to be his bill and neck, then the next two are fine, then the next one was over a little, the next over more and farther apart for his legs, and the percent sybols over for his feet!
Somehow it all shifted over. It’s probably too late to fix it now.

Have you ever played the “googlewhack” game, simple really you enter two words as unrelated as possible into google, the goal is to get one and only one site in the world with those two words. Mind stretching as they have to be weird and unrelated. I had my first go tonight and “googlewhacked” with “eclectic viborgs”, which lead me to a norwegian site that I could not understand. My second result was with “Philtrums Wodehouse”, which lead me to this site. I am still here an hour later, so congratulations on two counts, you are a googlewhack… a one in three million chance and secondly what an interesting site, although the Wodehouse as in PG was a good sign that I’d be comfotable here. Great Blog, Allison.

Allison (132),
Glad you like it here! There was a fair amount of googlewhacking on the November [2006] Discussion Thread, but I never expected anyone to find us that way.

132- Wait, if you found us from a googlewhack, does that mean you’re not a Muser? Or did you know about us and not bother to look us up even though we were mentioned in 3 consecutive issues now? If you don’t get Muse yet, will you start?

stll new, so I’m not sure if I should thank you for the pie or not. Anyway as I was not expecting a pie I have just washed my hair in honour of my first pie and remembered to duck in future. ( I think??) To answer the question I had no idea who or where you were, as to me in a nutshell, reside Cheshire England, favourite Author PG Wodehouse, Poet Phillip Larkin, Composer Rachmaninov, Artist Tom Waits. Maybe it took a googlewhack to introduce us.. thanks for the lovely welcome and the pie.
