OK. How much do I have to pay you for that, Whitey? And can I use the "goddess of the Yankee blogiverse" line on the cover? Oh, wait. The cover's printed. How about in an ad? Oh, wait. The publisher isn't spending any money on ads. Maybe I can just go around saying it to people?
Btw, I curse a lot in the book. My mother has disowned me.
Who needs a book publicist when I have you guys? But if I do get on the Today show, promise not to laugh when I say to Matt Lauer, "Matt, Matt. You're so glib. You don't know anything about psychotherapy or Alfredo Aceves."
Hey, let's set the record straight here, our own Mons Megs -- star of stage, screen and script -- is the queen of the Yankiverse. She's just not as prolific as She-Fan.
She-Fan, you can be our Lady Di, just Mons Meg, when she posts for us, is still tops.
Is Meg still alive? That's great news. Has this been independently confirmed? Any actually sightings?
Regardless, you must curb your sexist instincts, Dirk.
Meg — if she's really still with us — has nothing to worry about; she can be a princess, a queen or The Mother of All Yankees. Her position in the pinstripe firmament is secure.
She-Fan remains a goddess.
These things are NOT mutually exclusive just because they're chicks, you sexist pig.

And She-Fan was recently in the New York Times online, as well (which means she probably won't be hanging around with us riff-raff anymore).
ReplyDeleteCheck it out here.
Sadly, it's my understanding that in her memoirs, the 2007 and 2008Yankees do not win the World Series.
ReplyDeleteMaybe she'll have to go back to fiction.

Wow, when I wrote my comment, there were no comments. By the time I was able to hit the "View blog" button after posting, there were three.
ReplyDeleteGreat minds may not think alike, but apparently we all think at the same time.
Aw She-Fan doesnt have any customer reviews yet. We can fix that.
ReplyDeleteI know a terrific, unemployed copywriter who could write an ad for you if you pry some bucks loose from your publisher.
ReplyDeleteMight be helpful if he had a copy to read first, though. Just for research...
He could also do a radio spot for you, I'm sure, if we ask nicely.
Just sayin'...
But don't depend pn your publisher to sell books for ya, bubbelah.
Read this.
By the way, it's only $16.47 at Amazon.com and it's eligible for FREE SUPER-SAVER SHIPPING if you spend more than $25.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm ... so you'd have to buy something else in order to get the free shipping?
Maybe this?
Excellent idea B3!
ReplyDeleteHey, why don't you three just get a hotel room.
ReplyDeleteAnd I thought the green monster was in Boston, duck-breath.
ReplyDeleteYou just can't stand someone else getting a little love. Pathetic.
Surely Alphonso will regain consciousness shortly and you two can resume solving the world's problems.
If not, try talking to someone else in the shelter with you.
After seeing the attention this post has received Brian Cashman has signed Maya Angelou to write the memoirs of the 2009 Yankees.
ReplyDeleteShe-Fan can look forward to discussing the many new flavors of sunflower seeds with Nick Swisher this year on the bench.

ReplyDeleteHey, She-Fan, tell you what: Let us know before you go on "Today." We'll send you an IIH IIF IIc T-Shirt to wear.
ReplyDeleteAnd when you go on Oprah, you can wear it when you jump on the couch.
Many of us would like to "go" on Oprah.
ReplyDeleteI have a simple question for She-Fan: Are those your eyes?
ReplyDeleteAlphonso ( writing from Cowgirl-up website )
Best of luck, she-fan!
ReplyDeleteYou are without a doubt the goddess of the Yankee blogiverse, the queen of Bronx bomberdom, the duchess of all things pinstriped!
Can't wait to read your book!
