To help new and ancient bloggers alike, I’m posting some top secret plans I drew up at my blogging research centre.

You are all very welcome.

That’s very generous of you…we could have a DP cardboard box challenge…could post a slide show…lhave to look for some boxes won’t be long…
You’ll only need a petite one ………
Gosh, thanks.
Where do I put the air holes and how do I apply mascara???
@70steen: that’s a fair question that…
@70steen: wondering that myself.
… Puzzled: why your shoulder cutouts are at the front and back?
@annie: It’ll help a lot with writing your short stories - probably
@70steen: You provide your own hot air and buy a right angled mascara brush and apply from below the chin being careful not to blacken your nose [it works for me anyway]
@sylvied: I thought it was rather ‘blond’ as well ………..
@Celeste: What colour is your hair? …….. just asking
@Linky Love: Just turn your head through 90º - easy peasy
@DP
Would that be a left or a right turn, thinking abox oops ahead I assume that’s important when you need to use your eyes…
Do you know which side of your head your eyes are? - it makes a difference you know [I knew this was going to be too technical for some people ... oh well]
Actually I never saw my own eyes, the best I can get is a mirror reflection.
@Linky Love: Can’t you extrapolate from the information gleaned from a mirror to work out the position of your eyes? ….. or perhaps ask your mascara brush?
@DP
Extrapolations are quite difficult as I never manage to measure inside the mirror-image. And I miss those skills Plato wrote down once as well.
Worst come to worse: my mascara brush is no longer in talking terms with me…
Wohaa, I just heard voices coming out of my box…
Ah - those little, yet insistent, voices coming from your headcase …………..
*bows* You are my true inspiration.
@Daddy Papersurfer: As long as you provide 24 hr call out service we should be ok…
Don’t wish to get picky but how do you see what you are doing?
Maybe you can’t….that would explain a lot…
@Scratch Bags: I am soooo sorry Scratch Bags …….. I can’t really think of a solution ……..
@sylvied: Of course! - so long as I’m given a few days notice ……. in writing …….. in triplicate ……….
@Diane: You can’t see a thing and it’s rather claustrophobic - only the true professional can handle the pressure …….
I’m not allowed to use cardboard at home any more. Can I use polystyrene instead?
Also, should ‘x’ be a constant variable, or variably constant? Or, can I, errm..no. Wait a minute, would it be possible to …no. No, never mind.
Oh, yeah.. is it safe to wear to bed, in case I engage in any somnambulogging?
I notice there are no EYE HOLES!!! You got something against eyeballs DaddyP?
It’s up to the individual of course ……. but a large pricking thing could be used for those that need them ………
[Health and Safety Warning - sharp things can be sharp!]
Soooo…are we supposed to print our avatar out and paste it on the front as well, so we’re blogging ‘headcases’ that are identifiable?
This entry is, like, so screwing with my head again!
You can always print out someone else’s avatar - say Fracarse’s - and get in touch with your feminine side ………. oooooo, we could all be Sir Kevin Almighty!!
@Daddy Papersurfer: darn it … made the box .. applied mascara went to work with black nose.. came home read your advice… too late was the reply
But did however, have the hindsight to print off a photo Uma and glued it to my boxhead… I did get accosted by many fans on my walk to work this morning.. unfortunately it was raining and she got a bit soggy
I actually think wearing a bra on ones head is the way to go
@Claire: a tender bra is much more comfortable than a harsh box any day
THAT’S my girl!
(You could learn a lot from her ya know DP…)
Not to mention supportive 70’s…
Oh of course Olga … your support is vital
x
I think everyone should try blogging with a bra on thier head, don’t you? - I bet it would really boost the ol’ BRAin power!
how do you know that we don’t already ??
Oh. Well, maybe you are! That WOULD explain a lot!
Can you explain it to me ….??
[DP will so love this stomping all over his post when he wakes in the morning tee hee]
Well, let’s just hope he puts his “thinking bra” on!
@DP
Could you add a technically unchallenged image how to wear the bra under the box (or is it vice versa Claire?)
…a large pricking thing could be used for those that need them …
Since there where no guys around, I looked around in the garden (without the box on my head obviously) and found a fork.
I stabbed the box (without the box on my head obviously) and now have 4 holes.
So far so good: I can now look left, right, center and others …
Do we have to remove the sharp object after use?
@Linky Love, forgo the stupid box and embrace the bra!
@Claire
Lunchtime here, so me go brasserie, feel free to join
@ LL - I’m with Claire! (Really I am) Embrace the bra & ummm, watch out for those large pricking things…
HEY! It’s almost morning in the UK…so what’ll it be today folks…boxes or bras?
@70steen: You need a completely different design for hindsight …… and a bigger box …….
Claire, Olga and 70’s - wearing a bra on your head is just silly ………..[mmmmmmmmmmm ....... unless it's the bras they were wearing ...... blimey, it's the 60's all over again].
Still, it’s nice to see you all hanging out ……….
@Linky Love: I would be very wise to remove the sharp object ……. unless you are doing a magical stage show on your blog …. or gardening tips in your particular headcase. [I really must start up an 'Agony Uncle' column - there are some desperate people out there that need a lot of help]
Obviously ‘I’ wouldn’t be very wise - ‘It’ would be though …… [OK OK! - it's very early, not enough coffee, the problems of Blogdom on my shoulders and goddesses wearing their bras on their heads - it's very distracting you know]
Oooo - there’s an editing button - I could have used that ……. oh well
@I am doing an imaginacal show and yes, it’s paifully funny…
@DP
Sorry, I think I hit a nerve, @I should be @DP…
Can I saw you in half ……… lengthways? ….. that would be a hoot.
Well I didn’t see the 60’s the first time around. So to go with The Beatles trip the other day, I may as well go for the no bra thing too
I can’t remember the 60’s either ……. for various reasons ………
Let me know when things get out of hands in here…lol!
Too late …….. oh well
More like “out of bras” Sylvie! And I for one think it’s great! We bras need more time OFF!

I think you should all go out and play in the fresh air for half an hour before bed. Now run along….
@Olga, the Traveling Bra: I’ll support that motion!
@penfold: Boring!!!!!! [Nice new glasses BTW]
sitting here with Michelle on my head … shucks bras are a law on their own!!!
@DP
If you can seperate the L from the L, you can start sawing LL right away.
Just make sure no bras will be abused in the process!
Ok, I am in for A cup of Coffee.
Oh gee Linky…only A cup? I have a couple of D’s you could borrow!
@70steen: They are very unpredictable - they can snap at any time …….
@Linky Love: Milk and two sweeteners please ………
@Olga, the Travelng Bra: I can vouch for Olga - she’s bemassive!
Vouch!!! That hurt!
(But you’re right! Of course.)
@Olga, the Traveling Bra: I always knew you could hold your own …
@Olga
Alas an A lass…
@DP
No square icecubes here though, those are on “your other” blog
Oh was it iced coffee? …… I do wish ’some’ people would give me all the relevant information ……. tsk
@DP
Oh, that’s not an icecube in your above drawing then?
I’d completely forgotten about the drawing ….. got a tad distracted by all the bras flying around.
@DP
Probloggers should always keep their focus
It’s tricky with a 36″DD whizzing past your ear ….
@DP
You mean Mac still uses those old fashion 36″ Disk Drives?
No wonder they came out with a latop having the biggest screen… Smart marketing as usual…
I’ve never seen their range of ‘latops’ - I suppose that’s what people use in La-La Land ………. whereas in Lapland ………….
@DPPPPPPP
:-PPPPPPP
Just a PPPreventive matter for future PPPurPPPoses
Ok, I surely need an extra cuPPP as wellalla
tee hee with a twist of tsk …….
@DP
Just left a triPPPLLe tsk over at your cardboard blog…
