FAQs and the idiots who FA the Qs

I spend a lot of time on the streets. Since my blog is for the streets there is really no other place I would be able to be. These days being on the streets is hard, especially now when everybody wants to come up to me and ask me questions about the blog and make requests for it. But I don't forget where I came from so I am usually willing to chat about it for a few hours.

Pretty much most of the people want to know where you go after a blog like this. Now that the internet is available in nearly 20 countries all over the world and Europe, is there any goals left after international fame? Well not really other than giving back. I started a new inner city blog mentoring program called Blog's House with all my checks from this blog so that is pretty rewarding. I could only afford one computer and it got stolen the first day but I am keeping my eyes peeled for a new one so be on the lookout for the return of my program that helps me give back to the streets.

The other question I get asked a lot is about how does a blog post get made. Well, I work closely with a team of creative consultants who tell me all the awesome things they love about me and the blog. After they tell me all these things I am usually feeling pretty confident and ready to blog about whatever I feel like.

Probably the worst thing that happens to me on the streets is that people start going off topic really quick. The other day this guy saw me and yelled from across the street, hey it's you the Rush Hour Renegade, the one who makes the Full House blog. I took off my sunglasses and said yes you are right it's me. So then he runs over to me and starts shaking my hand and talking about how he loves everything about my blog. I can handle that since it's something I deal with every day. But then things went awry. He was all like, oh man did you ever watch Perfect Strangers? You should blog about that and how Cousin Larry and Balki were so opposite. Or what about Family Matters, that was a great one too...

This guy is an example of a person I hate. What, just because a show was on TGIF it's all the sudden equal to Full House? That's like saying all Skittles are as tasty as the green ones and we all know that isn't true. Basically, these kinds of people can suck me.

I blog about Full House. Get over it. If you wanna blog about Step by Step or Sabrina the Teenager then go right ahead. It's none of my business. But just so we're clear, this isn't a TGIF blog and it never will be as long as I'm in charge of it. If you want to cut me a check for a million dollars then I will sell you the blog and you can make it all about Mother Winslow if you choose to. But until then, this blog is about Full House so how about you blow it out your ass with all the jibber jabber.

  1. Funny you should talk about this.. My mom was asking if I had talked to you lately (I dunno why she is so concerned about you and your whereabouts) and I mentioned the blog. Once I explained to her what a blog was, she was interested to hear that it was about Full House but then, almost immediately, she brought up Perfect Strangers and went on and on about how much she liked that show. I could tell she was about to suggest that you blog about that but I hung up on her before she could say it.

  2. Kathi Santoni recently sent me a text at 7:30 am that said, if you ever get a cat you should name it grandma jenkins (with this animation cartoon guy making a huge laughing face)...I was like what?? Why the hell was she thinking about that at 7am?! It was pretty funny tho...good old grandma jenkins...AND like 2 years ago my friend Meghan started a facebook group called, 'carl winslow is my daddy,' which again was pretty funny...AND just a few months ago one of my best friends from college had to move to Port Washington, WI for a job...I was like, thats where they lived on Step by Step! She was like, I cant believe you know that--(in a 'i cant believe we are friends because you are totally lame and embarassing' way). And in a way i am embarassed because that was a totally lame show. Painful...Her brother Denny told her that she should walk around town asking everyone where the roller coaster is!...I had a good laugh...But dont worry rhr, i wont bring this up again...but it just proves that TGIF is, and will always make its way into our lives when we least expect it...BUT-you need to know my loyatly definitely lies with full house, duh. No other show compares.

  3. Polite Police- Grandma Jenkins is clearly from Ghostwriter which was a PBS phenomenon. RHR - I think you should talk about the family dynamics abundant in Just the Ten of Us. Stellar programming.

  4. Ok rhr, so I am not making this up, but I've had a few more instances happen in the last two days...Yesterday I was playing this juvenile game called 'perfect match' with my friend Vanessa. Its where you write down 10 men and 10 women and through some very scientific calculations you find out who your perfect match is. Vanessa wanted to play with celebrities and guess who she picked for one of them? Urkel! I was like, No way!...Then today I went to visit my friend Andrea at her Walgreens store and she and her co-worker, or more like girl crush, were telling me about a customer who really bad no back-pocket, acid washed gladstones, as well as how her co-worker has her very own gladstones she wears to work but its ok cuz her white pharmacy vest hides the gladstone waist...Yes, Andrea did call them gladstones, because she is familiar with the blog, as well as the new term...Some old stupid lady who works there caught some of the conversation and like an idiot said, What? like urkel? We gave her a courtesy laugh, but it WASNT what we were talking about at all. I was thrilled that she said it however-=chalk up another for tgif!
