Batten down the hatchets, people. The Big Apple Blogger Bash is slated for Feb. 7 at Zanzibar and I plan to attend. Why? Because I enjoy meeting as many men as possible and hope to talk about Star Trek and the persecution of Palestinians and/or Jews all night. No, seriously, the real reason is that female bloggers will be there and I enjoy having sex with females who do anything.
I look at the next few weeks as a kind of homework period. I'm going to have to sift through all the expected attendees' blogs to weed out the dorks who post about cats, family birthday parties and their sudden realization that being an assistant manager at a Gap is one of those positions in life that Hollywood writes sitcoms around.
And then, of course, I have to determine which blogs are written by single women. Which means I have to actually read what single women have to say. Which means I might kill myself by Feb. 7.
The whole idea seems like legalized stalking. I can comb through posts so old that the ladies won't even remember writing them. And then I can spring Something About Mary-like comments about how I, too, love a blend of hazel nut and vanilla coffee and it just happens to be in my kitchen ... which is a mere 10 feet from my bedroom and a lot of lotion.
Anyway, I plan to go to the party. Any PK.com visitors out there planning to attend? Let me know and let's have some laughs.
(On a complete tangent, I just fired up one of those Lean Hot Pockets, reminding me of one of the best lines I ever heard from a standup comedian: "They should put a warning label on Hot Pockets that reads, "WARNING: You are about to buy Hot Pockets."

Well as your host for the Blogger Bash, I can assure that single women will be attending. I'll see if I can round up one of the nicest sweetest women that I know (unless you want someone really trashy then I may have to do some work -- yeah right) and just push her in your direction...
