The chickens are coming, the ... no wait ... I think I'm confused

Well, as some of you may know, Blogathon is coming right up on our asses. There is about a week until it starts.

I know I have not compelled people much to sponsor me, but honestly, I think everyone who reads my blog has already sponsored me. All five people. And those who read my blog and haven’t sponsored me have already gone above and beyond sponsoring other people which is equally awesome. I am glad I passed the $100 mark. That’s pretty good. I wish I could have made it to $500, but that’s okay.

Some of you may know that we’re also going to be having a 24-hour Mango Radio live pod-a-thon. I will be broadcasting (hopefully) around 5ish which is my normal broadcasting time on Saturdays. I am actually hoping for a 5-8 slot or even a *dramatic pause* 2-8 shift. I am hoping that this will bring new listeners to my show. I am the least popular of the Mango dj’s listener-wise and I would like to correct that. I’m shooting for 5 regular listeners. I would probably have more if I was more on the ball with uploading my shows.

To be honest, I tried the new Mango upload page and I have no idea if it actually worked or not. I should probably check that. I do have all my shows neatly organized now. I also have some Utopia Pirate radio (that no one but Ginger listened to) on my computer. But, those shall never see the light of day.

Aaaaanyway … back to Blogathon. Go out and sponsor someone. Sponsor me if you want to or find someone who has a similar cause to your own. Do it! Now! Sponsor! Every donation helps no matter how small it is.

I have about 43 Top Five lists planned out. Mango and katkat both gave me a list, but no one else seems to be inspired to creativity. I will replace my own ideas with others if I get more than five.

I am also going to tie this into my show during the ‘thon. I am going to do Top Five song sets. This will definitely be in the feel of High Fidelity and it is where I came up with the idea for doing the blogathon. I intended to do Top Fives during my show that day, then I thought to myself, “Hey! I can do Top fives on my blog as well! Dude, I am a fucking genius.” So, if you have ideas for either Top Five list, let me know! Music or otherwise. I know you are all creative people out there, show me! I believe in you.

Read on if you want to see my Top Five lists, if not, bleh.
