RE: Shout-out Saturdays!! -- Issue #5 from The Weasel's Wife -- The Primo Contributors to Steemit / Cinco de Shout-Out Edition
Okay, Gina told me to get over here, and only to find out that I can only make it around here as an "old geezer", no way that I would ever make it as a "primo contributor" but that won't stop me. Good try.
Last I checked, it might still be Saturday in Mexico since Cinco de Mayo last about a week down there.
And well, you're a primo contributor in your own fashion. Anyone who churns out a post, day after day after day. After day after day -- qualifies as that. So, maybe you've got a kick coming about being omitted. (That's different than when I tell @catweasel he's got a kick coming. Totally different thing. Believe me.)
Anyway, you got me thinking about how many categories you might legitimately fit -- and doing that I came up with another theme for another Saturday. Steemians with Style. So when that one gets written, you'll be right up there on stage. Maybe we can't all be good at everything, but some of us can be good at a lot. You can lay claim to that -- and I won't argue a bit.
(My variation on, "You can fool all of the people some of the time, and some of the people all of the time, etc." Who'd have guessed how true those words would turn out to be.)
It was your list not mine, I was just giving you a little jab in the ribs like my wife gives me in church when she thinks I'm not paying attention. I don't even consider myself a "primo contributor" so I wouldn't expect others too either. Now if it been labeled "consistent" , that would have been a whole another story if I didn't make that list, but then the question becomes the type of consistency?
The guy mucking the horse stalls everyday is consistent, day after day after day... but in the end he is still just shoveling a bunch of shit. I better stop or you just might see the similarity I just pointed out.
I am glad though that I prompted some thought on another possible category for a shout out post, I am good for something every now and then.
I'm counting on the fact that Cinco de Mayo goes on for a week in Mexico -- and here. (Or until revelers sober up. Whichever comes first.) Things like deadlines used to bother me a lot more than they do now. I used to crawl The Weasel's frame for treating deadlines like "a suggestion." Either what he's got is catching -- or I'm slowing down with age. Probably some of both. I've got too many other things to worry about. Deadlines on Steemit don't even make the list any more.
