My First (and possibly last) VLOG Post

I finally attempted this video blog stuff.

Don't worry, it's short (like Me). Sadly.

And it only lasts 18 seconds (also like Me). Also Sad.

I had to get my 5yr old to be my camera man, because no one else wanted to help.

Thanks family!

Of course, I had to go to where HE was, AND sit on the floor by HIM, because he was too busy watching Dora the Illegal Immigrant Explorer.

Regardless, without further ado, here's me in all my AWESOMENESS.

Enjoy & Season's Greetings!




Thanks, Sam The Cameraman, for giving me the "Max Headroom" look and cutting me off at the chin.

The way your face freezes at the end of that will haunt my dreams forever.

Geez man, don't chew gum!

Loved it though. Loved it.

Lee said...

That was great! Put the camera on a shelf or something!! Spit the gum out and do another!

Unknown said...

Seriously SPIT OUT THE GUM!

Love it anyway, love all vlogs...lem em especially when they only go for 18 seconds too ha ha ha

Do more.

Unknown said...

lem em? What am I retarded?

miss. chief said...

YOU HAVE AN ACCENT hee hee hee

I'm not going to say anything about the gum, it's like a tough guy thing, right?

adrienzgirl said...

Love your camera man! :D He's got skillz!

I like vlog, as long as they are short and sweet and to the point.

Hey, 2 outta 3 ain't bad dude!

Oh, and Merry Christmas to you too!

ScoMan said...

Thanks for giving us the face and the voice and Merry Christmas to you too.

Does your five year old have a union rep or an agent or someone I could speak to about getting some cheap child cameraman labour in the future?

Tony said...

Merry Christmas to you too, sir.

I don't know why people are irritated by your gum chewing...it makes you look like a bad ass. Because that's what bad asses do. They chew gum.

that post was really funny
the writing part i mean
and the camera work ? superb.
sam's got a bright future ahead of him
maybe he can work with dora...

Coffeypot said...

I didn't even notice the gum, but good job anyway, but you didn't have to lie. Bragging about 18 seconds...phhhfffttt. All men know it's only about 6 at the most. Then sleep.

Tgoette said...

Is it just me, or does anyone else think your ending pose looks like Robert De Niro? So how did you get Sam to be cameraman? Did you make him an offer he couldn't refuse?

Ed said...

To all thee above commenters: Sorry about the gum. I was all stressed out and it was my Nicotine gum (I am presently working on giving up chewing tobacco). I really meant to spit it out, but forgot. Just pretend that I AM a badass. And the accent must be a Hoosier thing. Sam the Cameraman works available and works cheap. Of course, after I was done, he made me film him for like 20 fucking minutes while he gave some monologue or diatribe about some shit, I don't know cause I quit paying attention at minute 5. As for the ending pose, I left that in cause I thought it was the funniest part. Hope you enjoyed my trial run. Maybe I'll do more in the future.

June said...

Merry Christmas Ed.
Keep chewing that gum - it's a hard habit to knock and I wish you the best!

carissajaded said...

Loved it Ed! Seriously, I felt kind of nervous for you because I would have been... and the gum didn't bother me. If I ever do a vlog, there is a 100% chance I will be smoking a cigarette on camera.

Ed said...

Thanks Carol and carissajaded.

Just be aware that my new catch phrase from now till forever shall be "Turn if off Sam!" It'll catch on I'm sure of that..

Your son is the next Oliver Stone, or some other awesome director

Nice vlog!

Kimi said...

You all are brave with these vlogs. It scares the hell outta me just thinking about doing one. So I give you a high five, knuckles, and a sportsman like ass slap for effort.

Moooooog35 said...

Yours is so much better than my first one, which featured full nudity and a small, singing Leprechaun.

mepsipax said...

Ahhhh hahahaha. No chin man. Ok I'm done. Alright. Alright. Turn it off S...
Merry Xmas

Ducky said...

LMAO! Quite possibly your funniest post yet.

Turn it off Sam!

I understand the gum and while it really makes me want to grab you by the hair and relentlessly beat your head against the wall until the gum falls out...again I tell you...I understand.

Merry Christmas to you too

Aleta said...

LMAO

Lily said...

I'm assuming it's NSFW because you, in general, are NSFW.

I'll check it out tonight!

Cassie said...

At least your five year old kept your face in the picture the whole time. I would not like to think about which parts of my body would be filmed had one of my children been cameraman.

Life Laugh Latte said...

It's harder than it looks...isn't it! Fun to see and hear you. Kudos to the munchkin on his first video job. HOlly

Steam Me Up, Kid said...

Aw, that's cute how he got your head RIGHT at the bottom. It makes sense, kind of, I mean, if you were a drawing, because you know how in school they teach kids not to draw their subjects floating in air?

Sebastian Anthony said...

Best 18 seconds of my life, Ed...

Thank you for keeping it family-friendly... might have been a little scarred if you'd done something crazy with your five year-old filming...

Merry Christmas!

Chelle Blögger said...

Well you didn't lie, THAT *WAS* AWESOME!

Except that you allow your son to be subjected to the brainwashing on Dora the Explorer? WTF?!

Shameful. :)

Captain Dumbass said...

At least your cameraman kept it pointed at you, mine would have had it pointed at their asses.

Crystal said...

OMG! Totally Dinero!

Dude, you reminded me of this time that I tried video blogging (I can't say vlog; it's like saying vacay or fabu) and I have since made them private because I felt dumb about it.

Anyway, I have opened them up for you so you can see and hopefully be inspired by my dumbness so you can make more VIDEO BLOGS.

Come by later today to get some bling for your blog. Holly

Merry Christmas to you and your family, Ed!

You'd better watch the 5 yr. old and his video skills. My 9 yr. old now has a youtube account.
