Time To Musk Up



Well, another year has passed and Mongo has tied the record for fewest blog posts attempted or delivered in said calendar year. The magic number is three. This dismal effort has been repeated four times since Mongo first started the now world famous blog in 2007. It is a horrifying statistic that would stand on its own as a low point if it were not for the fact that the year 2022 does not exist in the table of contents.

   Apparently, Mongo was embarking on his Vision Quest in Bolivia and things got a little out of hand. The entire year was a blur and details are scarce, but a short stint at The Canyons after returning stateside seemed to do the trick.

   Mongo's official slogan for 2024 is "Go For Four". 

Mongo would like to get back into double digits if possible. It may seem like a tall order for all those who doubt the likelihood, but for the tens of people who have been with me since the beginning will know, way back in 2009 Mongo had 460 posts. The internet access at Rikers was surprisingly good for the time, and it turned out that some of the guys on the yard were big fans of Andreas Kloden.
