The Mic Is On: Happy 2nd Birthday to SOBs Everywhere!

October 24, 2007 by Liz

It’s Like Open Mic Only Different

Here’s how it works.

open mike night

It’s like any rambling conversation. Don’t try to read it all. Jump in whenever you get here. Just go to the end and start talking. EVERYONE is WELCOME
The rules are simple — be nice.

There are always first timers and new things to talk about. It’s sort of half “Cheers” part “Friends” and part video game. You don’t know how much fun it is until you try it.

TODAY, ALL DAY, IT’S A PARTY!!

Happy Birthday, Successful Bloggers!!

I’ll compile a list of all of the links when the party is over.

The Mic Is On: It's About "Past Lifes" — 5 yrs. 10 yrs. 199 yrs. ago!

It’s Like Open Mic Only Different

The Mic Is On

Here’s how it works.

It’s like any rambling conversation. Don’t try to read it all. Jump in whenever you get here. Just go to the end and start talking. EVERYONE is WELCOME.
The rules are simple — be nice.

There are always first timers and new things to talk about. It’s sort of half “Cheers” part “Friends” and part video game. You don’t know how much fun it is until you try it.

That’s Right . . . 5 yrs., 10 yrs., or maybe 199 yrs. ago!

Here’s a few ideas to get us started:

  • What did we do in a past life?
  • What did we wear?
  • Where did we go?
  • What did we think was fun?
  • How was our hair?
  • What transportation was cool?
  • What slang did we use?

And, whatever else comes up, including THE EVER POPULAR, Basil the code-writing donkey . . . and flamenco dancing (because we always get off topic, anyway.)

Oh, and bring links about who who you used to be!
