Top Pick: Walk in the Dark with Luke

Blogging has snared a prize catch yesterday when a Jedi commenter whiz launched his own blog A Walk in the Dark.

Our friend Luke, blog commenter extraordinaire to all of us, dealt a temporary setback to the Dark Force by becoming a proper blogger himself. Well, to the minions of the Dark Force, here’s my advice: grin and bear it.

Victory has many fathers. I don’t take credit for this happy occasion as it is a conspiracy among Luke’s friends that has finally pushed him to do the inevitable. This, however, is Luke’s version of how his blog came about.

Now that he’s one of us, I’m now issuing this directive to pay Luke a visit. Failure to do so will be dealt with harshly. My security guard and volunteer barangay tanods are well versed in the art of caning so take heed.

What’s with the long face huh? I don’t ask many favors from you guys. But this is a special occasion. Give this cool dude a warm bear hug of a welcome. And please leave a comment, too. Let’s keep this guy busy: ask for coffee, check for dark chocolates in his cupboard.

Be a friend and walk with Luke in the dark side.

You can also connect with Luke in twitter. His user name: @dezertsnow

    jan, a conspiracy is brewing. i have been accessing this site and that of luke's for a like the whole afternoon and my browser shouts 'error' and then closes all the windows opened. but when i checked dee's site, it opened just fine. something about the dark really scares me and the browser silently keeps me company... O:-)

    Di ko sya tinantanan. :-D :-D Of course, deep within him, he's this thing with blogging, too. I just give him the right dose of encouragement to take the plunge. 8-)

    Hi, Bingkee. I'm great at plugging because I only spread the good word about persons I believe in and things that have value. Pero for the right amount siguro I might have feel for this thing. =-O


    Woohoo!

    That's funny, Snow. Your kids saying, "I'm your father!" in that strange
    Darth Vader voice. ",)

    Thank you, Snow. It's a Sunday - time for family stuff - and yet you made it

    a point to visit. Splendid. I'm awed and grateful. Yessss! ",)

    Ah, the things I do for my rock stars. Don't mention it, Luke. It's my pleasure. You've dozed off? That's a funny and touching scene - you asleep and with your laptop still aflicker. And Dee turning off your laptop, with bemused smile on her face. Yes. Sweetness. ",)


    You can still appear on top of the comment page, Luke. Just reply to Roy's comment and you'd be still at the top. ",)
  • jan
    That's all right. It will be good for my readers. A little exercise for
    them - they'd be scanning real hard for you there - investigating where on

    earth is the Jedi master's response to all that conversation. That's my way

    of looking at it. ",)
  • Lucrecio Emerito
    Hi guys! Oh, really sorry of being late. I had downloaded this new Twitter client, configured it, played with it a while and dozed off. I haven't even turned my pc off. I guess Dee turned it off.


    And now I missed the first spot in the comment section of this post about..... =-O



    Thanks, Jan. That's so nice of you. Very,very nice. You made a place for me in your blog. That's so awesome special! You not only added my teeny weeny blog in your blogroll, you wrote about it! Wrote as in spent time for it. You rock, master Yoda! :-D



    Wow, dude, and the image rocks! I used to have that as my wallpaper. A million thanks again, mate.

    Maybe he's writing his second post. Maybe he's editing Dee's post. Maybe they have a power outage. Maybe he's watching Naruto on his laptop. Maybe I should shut up already. :-P
  • jan
    Well, I'm up for some outrageous, out-of-this-world answers. The more absurd the better. Ahahaha
  • jan
    Well, I tweeted about it. And shared Roy's post about Webpinas.com and Mon's problem with that web host provider in Facebook. O di ba feeling useful and relevant ako tonight.


    I'd keep tweeting about it everyday. And I will use all my social media profile to talk about it. What kind of web host service is that - a web host from hell?



    If I wake up on the right side of the bed I'd reg on Plurk tomorrow and will plurk about that webpinas.com till I turn blue in the face.



    This is one cause that needs the backing of the Jedi knights. How about it guys? Doc Z, you have a Plurk, right? ;)

    Strange...

    Fatherlyours' webhost is down. He can't access his website/blog. So, roy

  • jan
    I don't mind, Doc Z. The oldest is usually the wisest. I just don't like Yoda-speak. Perhaps we should get a better screenwriter. ;)
  • jan
    OMG. Ay oo nga ano? Teka, one last question. What happened to Elmot's bid sa Top Ten? Silver said something on her blog about this, Roy. :(
  • Roy
    gotcha!

    A padawan is a young jedi knight. :)I sure hope that his blog can be
    resuscitated back to life.
  • jan
    I didn't quite get that. What do you mean Roy is trying to save fatherlyours? Something I don't know? *DONT_KNOW*
  • Roy
    an interview? lol


    just don't expect any serious answer :)

    Yeah, and his strange crew of Jedi knights. :)
  • jan
    Ah ganun, at may punch line pala un. I should have known better. Ahahaha. Well, if Roy doesn't want to be Yoda, I have no choice. I'm the oldest of the lot after all. May araw din kayo. Grrr! =-O

    Is this a new cult or a band?


    if it's a band, I'll take the guitar :)

  • Zorlone
    Okay, Roy is no padawan in blogging. He has countlessly defended his blog,
    now, he's trying to save fatherlyours' blog. Isn't that chivalrous?

    Z
  • jan
    Roy is an uber blogger. Maybe we should interview him about his tricks of the trade. After all, we really, really need to be influential. How about it, Roy? ;)
  • jan
    Oo nga eh. But then it's a Saturday night. What can we do short of making kaon? 8-)
  • Zorlone
    Roy is getting better. I wonder if he gets notifications whenever there are new post on your site... hehehe.


    You are officially an influential blogger LJ! See you have a Jedi with you and the rest of the Knights of Yoda* are by your side.



    How cool is that?



    Z



    *subject for approval so far luke and I are okay with it.

    open for more betterer suggestions. LOL ;)
