The Alphabet Challenge.

I'm not sure about you, but I can barely contain my excitement over the upcoming challenge that brings further awareness of the alphabet you might be familiar with.  You know, the one that goes from A to Zed, or if you're American, A to Zee.

If you don't know of this challenge and want to self-promote and accumulate followers who may well be those much loved drive-by bloggers, then, by all means, join in.  Sorry, cynical moment over.  If you don't know of this challenge and embrace the ethos of positive interaction in a sharing, caring, blogging community, this challenge may well be to your liking.

Now then, if you're really fascinated and really do want to get involved in time for the fitting date of April 1, 2013 aka "April Fool's Day",  here is the link that leads you there, yep, complete with a countdown clock to the beginning of this amazing alphabet challenge : Blogging from A to Z Challenge (April 2013)  All the information you could possibly need is provided there.

As for Penny the Jack Russell dog and modest internet superstar, my good self and even the wee folks, we'll  be doing our mainly satirical alternatives to the challenge.  Good natured, of course.  In fact, perhaps somewhat ironically, in our own small way, we bring further awareness of this blogfest or whatever the heck you call it.  And all those hosts of the A to Z just adore us.

So, to cause confusion, chaos and a bit of fun, we may well do the alphabet in reverse.  Yes oh yes, starting with the letter Zed or "Zee" if you speak in American.
If you are doing the challenge or are still contemplating a theme, here's a handy store to go visit in Leek, Staffordshire, England.  Just think what inspiration you might find.

On a serious note, I wish all those involved, a most fulfilling, positive time.  May the ideals of a sharing, caring blogging community, all different, all equal in this great diversity, see you find much contentment and friendship.

"Hmmmm...something beginning with Zee, oops, Zed.."

    1. Hi Alex,

      Indeed, as you will remember from last year, my take on it actually got you to start interacting with me on a regular basis. I'm grateful for that.

      Look forward to your theme. The A to Z of how starstruck you are by me. Sorry, I think I've mentioned I'm delusional!

      Happy alphabeting,

      Gary

  4. Oh I am so going to enjoy your take on the Challenge, Gary. :)

    I am honestly so impressed with those who can do this but, alas, it is far outside our realm of possibility. Heck, I'll have trouble keeping up with reading your take on it, never mind trying to pursue myself.

    Good luck and good wishes to those who do!

    1. Hi Leslie,

      It's been a lot of fun doing an alternative to the amazing alphabet challenge :)

      Indeed, I'm also impressed with those who would subject themselves to such 'torture'. I will probably only do a few here and there. Or I might do the whole alphabet backwards in one posting...

      I share your good luck wishes to the participants.

      Thank you, Leslie.

  7. Backwards you ay
    Sounds like fun at your bay
    Already done mine
    No theme for the feline
    May be no reason
    Which some ay find a treason
    But there is rhyme
    All the time
    And since you went on and on
    Over at my lawn
    I figure I have to retort
    Here at your court
    With an abc
    ut for thee
    A bring us air
    Which is hot at your lair
    B is for balloon
    Many of those you can fill like a cartoon
    C is for cat
    You can't beat me, just Pat
    D is for dog
    You know you like to eat a brown log
    E is for eat
    You think all is a treat
    F is for fib
    Next tie cover up your bib
    G is for great
    Sorry not your fate
    H is for hell
    Something I may get for ringing this bell
    I is for imagination
    Like you and your destination
    J is for jack
    Can't cause you all flack
    K is for kong
    Having the first name donkey is so wrong
    L is for loo
    Which can't be used by you
    M is for mound
    Under which my crap is found
    N is for noon
    Once again I just wanted to say loon
    O is for out
    Where you go to pout
    P is for prance
    As out in the snow you do a cold dance
    Q is for queen
    Of your scene
    R is for ripe
    Your gas you can hype
    S is for spit
    As you slobber at your pit
    T is for treat
    You think crap is tough to beat
    U is for under
    Where you go to plunder
    V is for viper
    Time to pay the piper
    W is for work
    Reading this will make your eyes go berserk
    X is for xena
    Sorry your closer to a hyena
    Y is for you
    And all the yapping you do
    Z is for zing

    I'm already doing a weekly A-Z, I think that's enough for now, a daily one would be too much. I thought about it last April and told myself that I would plan ahead and have the posts all worked out by this year, but it didn't happen.

    1. Hi Keith,

      Evidently, it's the blogging highlight of the year. Of course, I might just disagree with that :) I know if I wanted to increase my total of followers to massage my ego, I would join up. I didn't notice you post daily. However, as you will gather, it's an alphabetic thing that runs according to one's particular theme. Still, you get a lot of comments and you're doing well, regardless. I note you get so many comments that, unlike me, you don't reply to those who kindly left you a comment. The logistics, as I'm finding out now, means this is becoming time consuming for all the most flattering of reasons. Yikes, I rambled :)

      Thank you Keith.

    1. Hi Mark,

      An excellent question. Let's see now. 26 letters in the alphabet we use. I know, for sure that the letter Z will be used. The letter P will be used. And because I can get into blatant self-promoting, the letter K :) And gee, I wonder what letter Penny will use after she has a P..

      My take is bordering on cynical in a good natured way, if that's possible.

      Thank you, Mark.

I should have been born a dog. I could just lay down and fart and snore and eat, then go for a walk. Okay, enough! I've filled your window with nonsense, so it's off to do vacuuming.

    1. Hi Joylene,

      I'm sorry you're a bit out of sorts, what with all that's transpiring in your life and the vision of the start of your new hope, new adventure. Joylene, I'm too cynical to get involved with the A to Z. Although I like to believe it's about positive interaction, I've seen a number who just do it for an ego trip and accumulate followers. I find that sad and superficial.

      Joylene, dogs are wonderful creatures. "Okay Penny, see, I typed that sentence!" Yet Joylene, you're a cherished, kind human being. However, no stopping you from farting or snoring or going for a walk :)

      Thanks Joylene and yes, if my tongue-in-cheek postings about the alphabet challenge, make you smile, then that's a positive result.

      Not to worry, because I'm not part of the challenge, very few will even be aware of what I'm doing.

      I know you enjoy it and you always provide an interesting theme. Castles and all that. I personally despise it. I resent seeing my friends go off track and get so ensconced in it. Still, I respect that and yes, bizarrely, even my little recognition brings further awareness of the challenge.

    1. Hi Cindy,

      Thank you for visiting and it's nice to make your acquaintance over here. My A to Z posts are rather satirical alternatives. As for drive-by bloggers, I just love their comments. You know what they leave as a comment. "Great post!" "Thanks for sharing!" Thank you, Cindy and enjoy your weekend.

      Gary :)

  41. Talk about the longest comment ever. Pat did a beautiful job, and your answer -- I am jealous of the talent to rhyme.

    I'm a bust, except when it come to lust, blood, and gore, then I succeed, because for some reason I have this killing -- need! :)

    Sorry, but you can't say I didn't try -- and I brought no knives (my favorite weapon by the way). See you later Gary, and really shouldn't folks, named Gary be glad they weren't Harry?

    Looking forward to your Z to A humor!

    1. Hi Yolanda,

      I don't want to brag
      Cause that be a drag
      However however,
      I left the longest comment ever
      On Pat's site
      Which brought him delight

      Anyway, enough of the rhyme. Yes Pat did a beautiful job and I'm in no way jealous of the fact he has over 2000 followers. No, not me, I don't mind have a very talented dog who posts on here getting way less recognition than him. One moment while I sob in a darkened room.

      Okay, I'm back now. Your poem was sublime. And blood and lust, it still seems just. Your poetry aint no crime. You did well. I can tell.

      My satire will be on fire. Z to A. No other way.

      Thank you Yolanda
      For having a gander

      In kindness, Harry...oops, Gary :)

  42. I had fun with the A-Z last year, but have decided to sit it out this year. In fact, I'm pretty much gonna sit out on blogging for the month. But I'll still try to check in with some of my favorite bloggers during the month to see what they're up to. So, I'll be stopping by here a time or two.

    Zanzibar? Zimbabwe? Zizzer zazzer zuzz? (a Dr. Seuss critter) Take care.

    1. Hi Susan,

      It's nice to know you had fun with the alphabet challenge last year. Take it easy and enjoy a well earned rest from blogging, Susan. Excellent to note you will be checking out some of your favourite (favorite,) sorry spell check, bloggers during the month. I appreciate you stopping by here :)

      Zimmer frame. Is the name of the game.

      Be well, Susan.

      Gary :)

    1. Hi Shell Flower,

      I've heard there's going to be an "Alphabet Shop" opening at the top of the Space Needle :)

      Thank you, my friend and enjoy Sunday in the beautiful Pacific Northwest.

    1. Hi Susan,

      Thanks and you might realise that I'm just a shy, humble dude circulating on the peripheries of the blogging world. Thank you for commenting on this archived blog.

      Kind wishes,

I do try to comment back to each commenter individually. However, I might have to shorten my replies or give a group thank you. That way, I can spend more time commenting on your blogs. Thank you and peace, my friend.
