Guest Bloggers
OK, let's try to cheer up, the experiment that was the U.S. of A. seems to have failed, but there will be other beacons of freedom. I mean after all,. it was called “The American dream. How did we not see it coming?
It is time now to focus on the wonderful, those things that keep us from remembering that everything we knew is wrong. It is time to focus on Momblogging. Yes here at the first annual momblogging conference our guest bloggers are UltraFran, mother of kuri and UltraJean, mother of Tod.
You may be aware that the other author on this site is my own dear UltraMommy. Originally the site was me and my little brother Johnny, but when Johnny flaked out on me UltraMom was there to step in and start writing … start writing mortifying stories from my childhood to be more precise. She seems to have stopped writing of late, but that is neither here nor there. To give you an idea, here is one of the early posts from UltraBob that has been very popular.
Anyway, when those stories saw the light of day, a few friends of mine had a fair amount of laughter at my expense. That's fine, I'm a generous guy, but I think it is only fair that they pay me back, don't you? I have been telling them that I would get in touch with their parents and get them to give me some juicy tidbits to share with the world, and when I heard about The Okaasantachi Tour I knew the time had come. I got in touch with Jean and Fran through a rather unsatisfyingly cooperative Kuri, and asked if they would like to embarrass their children. yes they said, they'd be delighted. So I'm happy to introduce guest bloggers UltraFran and UltraJean (listed in alphabetical order). Let the comments flow like wine, they are what makes writing the stuff worthwhile.
P.S. Please forgive the rather poorly done guest blogger design. I did it in a bit of a rush. I hope to get the chance to go back and fix it up soon, but I kind of doubt that I will.

Its this big guy's turn for the spotlight. Just finished chatting with him on Skype and was struck, as always, by his insight and humor. Get well, Baby. Don't let that cold get the best of you. Take some Zicam.
UltraGirl

This girl has been lately leaving insightful comments on my posts, a move likely to ensure her a good ranking on the Oriko Leaderboard. Thanks, UltraGirl. I too am glad my camera returned from the Center of the Earth. And do give those cranberries another try.

k Has been a little busy, but hopefully that's good news for Akatombo Media. We keep missing each other on Skype, but we'll figure it out one of these days. Thanks for the comments. Someday I may finish writing about the trip!

Am a little disappointed cause I thought I was going to get to see this guy next weekend at Aunt Debi's wedding. Now he's not coming after all, which is probably a wise choice and all, but still drops him a bit in the Leaderboard ratings til I get over it. Give me another day or two. And he DID make me and UltraDad a super-awesome Anniversary Card with a fun guessing game. We're still waiting to hear....who won?

Hasn't been leaving comments, and refuses to share her taco dip recipe, but she did send UltraDad and me an absolutely gorgeous Anniversary card and cash for a dinner out, which we have already made use of. Thanks, Honey.
Polly
88.0
I'm going to leave this kitty up here ahead of the dogs for now. They are still barking at her at every juncture, and as far as I can see, the only thing she does to instigate it is to exist.
Murphy the Wonderdog
87.9
Doesn't bark at Polly as much as his little demon-brother, but does bark at said brother way too much. Murphy, you are the (relatively speaking) "Big Dog". If you want the chewbone Rowdy has, don't bark at him; take it away from him!
Rowdy

Still too much barking, and a little too much pooping and peeing in the house. Is starting to learn a few tricks, but is not as clever as Murphy in that way.
