Media: Numero on blogging

May 10, 2008
By Billy Dennis

I was at One World the other day at what I incorrectly thought was an off-the-record lunch. I picked up the latest issue of Numero, No. 26. I have to say this little magazine/entertainment guide is beginning to grow on me. Maybe that’s because they interviewed me for their article on how blogging is becoming an important part of the 5th Estate. The article was short (which is understandable, considering the magazine’s format). As far as the photographs … I’ll just say that photographer Dennis Slape (also the managing editor) didn’t have a lot to work with. I looked like I just woke up from the nap I took behind a dumpster. Jonathan Ahl looked as dapper he usually does.

So, we’re slipping though the magazine when ONE of my dining companions (I won’t mention his name, but his initials are C.J.S.) starting whining about how they didn’t interview HIM. I’m tellin’ ya, this guy is insecure. I had to promise that the NEXT time someone in the media interviews me about blogging or the state of Peoria politics, that I would mention HIS name as a good source for information.

    I just said they could have interviewed a more photogenic blogger. Who said I was referring to myself? :-)

    ” … a more photogenic blogger.”

    Are you kidding me? You forget that I’ve actually seen you.

    Did you say “off the record”? I’m sorry. I thought you said “For the record”! ;)
