Day 1. Round 2. FIGHT!!!

Now the real work begins. I have created this thing, now it is time to give it meaning.

What you see before you will be a dailey(ish) log of the thoughts and events leading up to, and including all those that occur during, my grand BYE-BYE [duh duh duuuuuuuuh]. For all of you wondering,

"Oh god, is he going to highlight every reference to the grand BYE-BYE [duh duh duuuuuuuuh], by increasing the font and including a three ominous chords?"

I have one thing to say...ooooh yes.

But what is this grand BYE-BYE [duh duh duuuuuuuuh] you might ask? Why, it is my departure to study physical theatre in Franceland.

Over the next nine plus months I intend to: First, blahhg (as it shall now on be referred to) every day. Second, at least twice weekly publish The Official BYE-BYE [duh duh duuuuuuuuh] Picture Porn column. This column will consist of four pictures which will have recently taken, and possibly some accompanying commentary. Third, once weekly post The Official BYE-BYE [duh duh duuuuuuuuh] Video Experience Extravaganza. This little multi-media wonder will consist of a web-cam video. Probably of me. Maybe not. Doing something. Hopefully interesting. Maybe not. And finally, for my piece de resistance (sans accents appropries), I will include, for our lovely readers in the motherland, The Official BYE-BYE [duh duh duuuuuuuuh] French-speak Word of the Day. Weeeeee!

And that pretty much covers it. That is what you can hope to find.

As I become more proficient in all the tricks of blahhging, this site will evolve and change. New features may be added, and things that I have promised above may disappear. But the one promise I make to you now and ....uhhhh....promise to keep is that I will not raise taxes in order to produce this blahhg. KYLE GOES BYE-BYE IN '08!!!! YEAH!!!!!!

Actually, Kyle goes bye-bye in '07, but who's counting?

Which provides the perfect segue into.....

Questions for our more technical savvy readers:

1. Using blogspot.com's template, does anyone no how to enter space breaks in the "About Me" description field? I would like my disclaimer to have a space separating it from the rest of the description.

2. Does anyone know where I might be able to find code that would allow me to insert a clock that countdown's to my departure to Franceland?

3. Does anyone know how to insert foreign word characters into posts? If I'm gonna be writing about Franceland I'm gonna need to intermittently use French-speak. This means I'm gonna need to be using some good ole' accented characters.

And with that, I bring the first official day of the Kyle Goes BYE-BYE [duh duh duuuuuuuuh] blahhg to an end. It certainly was a good one.

Below, find your daily dose of French-speak.

The Official BYE-BYE [duh duh duuuuuuuuh] French-speak Word of the Day:
Oui /wi/ adv & nm inv yes. Used in a sentence: Oui.

I felt it was appropriate that I be the first to reply to my husband's new found hobby! Thrilled though I am that I will be able to watch his every move when he gets his French girlfriend to help him learn to speak "en Francais", I may need to see a chiropractor over the next few months from the amount of dismayed head shaking I am doing over Kyle's so-called "funnies"! Ah, it'll be like he never left!
