Aloha,
I’m in the middle of WIP edits, so here be short, sweet
post.
As Cheers, _________
BlogFest went from an idea to reality over the last few months – and then
morphed into ___Fest, a lot of my blogging focused a little on that no-hyperlink guy who, earlier
this week, was so awesome to open his doors to a posting of roastings.
When Monday swung around and ____Fest went LIVE! I knew already that we have an awesome community, but I was absolutely blown away by the positive response.
More than One Hundred and Forty (none related to me) signed up AND participated in ___Fest, and from what ____ said, he himself visited nearly 200 blogs during the first seven minutes of the fest, (he is a bit of a slacker, I'm sorry.)
Anyhoo, in the immediate aftermath of the Best. Fest. Test. (that I’ve
been involved with) I tip my beloved LA Angels ball cap first to:
Second, THANK YOU to all my dear Bluddies (Blogger buddies.)
Reading the oh-so-different flash fictions was SO. MUCH. FUN.
Along the way, I watched a video, read a poem and even saw the effort it took to bring a stick mini-Alex to life. :)

(While ___Fest is over, there are rumblings of another different, but similar in a differing way Fest for Christmas 2013, so watch this space…)
Remember, nothing is impossible…except for the Rangers resigning Josh Hamilton. :)
Finally, I would be bereft of all social skills if I didn’t mention the person who made this possible:
____ _ _________ !
Oh, if you’re wondering, I’ve written about ____ so much that the _, _,
_, _, letters on my Qu_rty k_ybo_rd are worn out…

Thanks Madman K, you're the MAN! This blogfest was a success and sooo much fun. Not only did we get to read some truly fun and creative posts, roast the Ninja, but I also got to meet some new blogging buddies. This community is AMAZING. (:
I had lots of fun in the fest - and you must be really good at kids' songs where you have to hum a word instead of saying it ;)
Boy, I thought you said that post was going to be short and sweet. :)
I didn't participate in AlexFest, but I read a lot of postings. He seems like a pretty terrific guy.
Love the stick mini-Alex!
Hi Mark - good luck with those edits - quick, quick, slow and get on with them!!
Great fest .. and I'm looking forward to finding out who the winners are - but Elise's stick men are just wonderful ... as were other posts ..
Cheers Hilary
That was hilarious! (I see my name did slip in there once.) And sorry, I'll try to do better and visit more next time.
Thanks again. Words can't express it enough. It's been an awesome week!
I loved Elise's cut out-- so cute and clever. There were actually so many great tributes in the form of songs, videos, banners. What a clever group! Unfortunately, I was fresh out of clever, just had gratefulness to give. It was a wonderful way to say thanks to Alex, Mark.
You done good!! :)
It was definitely a lot of fun! So... when are you guys planning the next one? ;)
LOVED! So much fun, and brilliant idea Mark-O :) Can't wait to see who you embarrass next time, lol!
Some of the posts were really original. Alex has helped so many. Anyone who didn't participate in the blogfest was a sorry rascal.
Ah-hahahaha!!!!!
Dyyyyyyying...
Can you get any more clever?
Really great recap, Madman. And I'm sure _____ is very happy with how the ____fest went. ;-)
Thank you for hosting and for writing such a wonderful Cheers post!!!
It was quite a party. So much adulation for the one who will remain unnamed.

I missed this one but enjoyed stopping by via Deja Vu. Cheers from Colorado!
Haha, Mark - you're hilarious! I loved this blogfest! I didn't have to think - it was so fun! Thanks for hosting!
YEAH, babe - let's make this an annual thing. I mean we have a great community to do so and it's gonna keep thriving with all this excitement going on!
I'm ready for more _____ Fest! Come on 2013! Hopefully, the world won't end on December 21 - whoa, we better seize the moment. :)
I love the little Ninja! So cool.
Quick! Give us another way to earn a video of the Bald White Guy Hawaiian Hula!
This is a great posting It’s exactly what I was looking for. I like your article.
there were so many great posts! I'm glad I didn't have to chose a winner :)
I lost! Hard to believe, but true. However, I lost to two very worthy opponents. Cheers to them both. Cheers to you on your edits.
Laughing my ____ off. The fest was great Mark.
Had lots of fun on the fest, Mark! Thanks to you and the other hosts for coming up with this crazy idea. :)
Great fest for a great Blogger! I was proud to be a part of it, and the posts were a lot of fun.
You never cease to amaze, and amuse, me. :)
200 blogs in 7 minutes! Holy Cow!!!
:P
It's been awesome co-hosting with you, Sir! It's been a pleasure I won't soon forget. Or even long term forget, because who could forget this? :)
