8 DAYS OF BLOGNESS

"That title is not clever at all and it's the 12 days of Christmas you moron!" To those of you who just yelled that at your computer let me say three things. One, you just yelled at a computer, two I couldn't think of anything containing the words blog, Bones or grillenwitgill that was any better and three this is Bones Christman gift so be greatful. For someone who has claimed to your loyal narrator at least once, I have not been very loyal lately. The fact that my boss has not left the office for a month and that until now I was not willing to blog on my own time has led to the number of e-mails in my inbox demanding more entries slightly outnumbering the number of e-mails offering ways to make millions working at home (never apply for a job on craigslist). I am losing readers by the thousands and the sponsors that funnel millions into this site gave me quite a tongue lashing during a conference call last night. I could have pulled an Oscar De La Hoya and refused to get out of the corner after a verbal beating like that but I instead choose to take the approach of Lions coach Rod Marinelli. I may have gone 0-14 over the last month but "my shovel is sharp and my will is outstanding" as we head into the Christmas season.
The previous paragraph was a long winded way of saying my blog entries are going to be more frequent, funnier (I know it doesn't seem possible) and longer (a Roman times like throwdown can now commence.) For the next 8 days I will write a blog everey day, including Christmas. The titles loosely fit they lyrics of an obscure carol. So without furthur ado Bones presents:
