Thanks to everyone for the awesome participation, it was a lot of fun!

For the record there has been some scandal regarding a question I was asked about my favorite pie. In the past i’ve said strawberry rhubarb, and apparently I disappointed some people by saying key lime. I had just seen a key lime in the grocery store and it was on my mind…

I will answer them all, it must may take me a while. Several questions have come through, though, and I wanted to address them here.

    1) Will you stop doing Murcaching?

    Nope. I stopped Geek Fu because I didn’t have the time or energy to put into it: Murcaching doesn’t take as much of either.

    2) Why can’t I comment here?

    Now that I honestly don’t know. Some were able to comment. Some weren’t. Sorry about that, I don’t know what’s going on.

    Of course, when I planned on writing this, I had more stuff in mind to write, but now I am blank. Thanks again to everyone, and I’m doing OK, really.

So I took some of those essays and entered the public radio talent search. If you’re interested, can you vote for me? I feel silly asking for votes, but since I don’t ask you to vote anywhere else, I figured it can’t hurt… http://www.publicradioquest.com/node/1302

So here’s Murcaching.

    I have a Wonder Woman lunchbox I’m going to mail out. There are little goodies inside. When you get the box, take one out, and put something inside for me. Send me a picture with you with the lunchbox. When I get the pic, I send you an address and you send it to the next person. And so on.

    Email me - include your address - at mightymur AT gmail DOT com if you’re interested. No one will see your address but me and the one person who sends the lunchbox to you.
