Our Blogmeet Ambassador

Last Saturday the people of Grokistan, the spiritual homeland the The Idiom, sent our official ambassador-in-exile, Mr. Surly, to the now blogospherically famous Jersey Blogmeet. Violating traditional diplomatic etiquette, Mr. Surly left on a international factfinding mission (vacation) before filing his full report. Although The Idiom will forgive this oversight for all the inbound linkages he was able to negotiate. Nota bene Mr. Surly, a "vacation" is not a "blogcation".

As propaganda minister-in-exile for Grokistan I shall fill in the blanks. Posts covering Da Jersey Blogmeet include those by hosts Parkway Rest Stop and Katespot and of course our own Mrs. Surly, aka TJ. More coverage at: gigglechick, Sluggo Needs a Nap, Cripes Suzette, cootiehog, Sad Old Goth, Shamrocketship, Mom & Pop Culture, Dynanmobuzz, This Full House, Jerseyside, Jerseystyle, Tequila Shots for the Soul, Tigerhawk, and South Orange Journal.

The Idiom co-editors hope that for all those Blogmet by Mr. Surly that was on his best behavior, used his "inside voice", and kept the Surlymeter at a relatively low Green: Cranky Surly. For the next Blogmeet, perhaps the Kid and I will make satellite appearances from our undislosed locations.

Free Grokistan!

Mr. Surly was as close to being a gentleman as made no difference. He chewed his flatware throroughly and made very few inappropriate noises. There was the 'bar-dancing' incident, but, as he destroyed the cameras, his denial should hold up.

All in all, he did Grokistan proud.
