Blogger Honors West Chester Blogger With Blue Yak Painting - For Free!

You know, being the best blog on the web does have it's perks: free haircuts, marriage proposals, gum. Another is receiving original works of art that are fashioned to look like a Blue Yak. Most of the time though - the art is junk. If I get one more Blue Yak made out of macaroni and covered in blue glitter I'm gonna kill someone. The white glue is always visible and they're a real bitch to dust.

The blogger Speedcat Hollydale however took a classier approach, he actually created a Blue Yak in a painterly way. To see it, click here.

As a thank ye' , I wrote in his comments section that all bloggers on his site that visit my site are entitled to a 50% coupon off of a Little Debbie cake (Disclaimer: coupons are imaginary), this does NOT apply to current THAT BLUE YAK readers. And if you little bastards think you're smart enough to trick me - you're not. I'm extremely versed in computer tracking and circuits and stuff that I'll be able to find out and if I do, I will give your computer a trojan virus. Lets not ruin this for everyone.

If any of my readers or Speedcat Hollydale readers would like to post their own art depicting a Blue Yak, please do so and I may write a post about you...or you...or even YOU. If you do create you own art, leave me a note here in the comments section. Good luck and get to work.

Lancaster's Long Park Art & Craft Festival Review

That Blue Yak's Milford Dean Darlak attended the 29th Annual Long's Park Art & Craft Festival in Lancaster - and boy did he have a good time.

It was great. It was an arts and crafts show but not only didn't I see a single clown as I usually see at festivals, there wasn't a single craft booth selling Popsicle stick yarn art. And sand art? Nowhere to be found. It was the perfect weather in Lancaster Sunday and there were many classy people there. Here are some pictures I took:

This was an Amish gal that I almost hit on the way there. "Hold on there Kinzer Kate. You don't want your bike smashed and I don't won't front bumper damage. So take your time. The pies will still be there when you arrive. Safety first."

Holy cow - a huge dog sculpture with a cut out bone in the middle. Hmmm...perfect for snooping.

When in doubt and feeling like an art rube, go with it with such comments as, "Those eyes in that painting are not even the same size" or "$1200? Are you crazy? I've seen paintings like this at Walmart for $19.99 and they even come with a frame."

Now you're talking. I was all set to enjoy a 100% Angus beef hot dog from Tri-County Barbecue Catering but when I got up to the counter, I noticed it was a foot long. I was too embarrassed to order it because people might have thought I was a gay so I settled for the hamburger. It was pretty tasty.

While doing research for this article I came across an interesting link about the amish and their nicknames. Check it out by clicking the word link: link

McGlinch Blogger Accused of Exhuming Body Of Henry Creator Carl Anderson To Retrieve Pen

The grave of Carl Anderson, the creator of Henry has been tampered with and we want nothing to do with it. According to THAT BLUE YAK Human Resources manager Mike Hopton, the AussieJourno - THAT BLUE YAK Awards 2007 may have led to foul play.

"We have reason to believe that Billy D. Grear, an intern at THAT BLUE YAK may have tampered with ballots for this prestigious award. It seems Billy D. Grear is a comic fanatic, and appears to have bribed the McGlinch blogger with a win - in return for the "Henry" comic creator Carl Anderson's prized pen."

Ted Poliski, a fellow intern is the hero that narced him out,

"That Grear dude was a creep from the day he started. All he would talk about was comics. Not comic book characters like Superman and Batman, but the crappy ones like Henry, Nancy and Hi and Lois."

"It was very crazy last week with the awards happening and all, but I swear I heard him say something like, 'This is how it's gonna happen, you exhume the body of the Henry creator, snatch the pen that's gripped in his cold dead fingers and bring it to me in return for the blogger award' -..or something like that."

While the investigation unfolds, we would like to once again congratulate McGlinch on his award and thank him for the picture that he drew per our detailed, specific instructions:
