Help Wanted: Yew Nork Babe Needs A Tagline

When I first decided to become a blogger a few months back, I never realized how much fun it would actually be. I never realized that I could be myself, say whatever I felt like saying, expose what is in my heart, admit my short-comings and still be loved. And I never realized how much "stuff" lay dormant in the 20 or so years of being a single mom in survival mode.

I have made so many wonderful friends here and have learned so many things about child raising, relationships, food, rock and roll, dating, alcohol consumption..... Not only do I read Christian Blogs, but I read other great blogs as well and I learn a lot about the wonderful people in the world where I am a part of.

*Ahem*, *cough* *cough* fellow bloggers, I am ready to take the next step in our rrrrrrrrrrrelationship. *Whew* even in blogland commitment is a scary thing.

I have begun adding to my profile, movies I like, books I read....stuff like that. I've even figured out how to link some of the many blogs I read daily (thanks to Liz).

But I can't seem to come up with a good tagline.

If anyone reads FlipFlopMamma they know that she petitioned ya'll to help her with a tagline. And you gave her some great ones.....so how about it?

I attempted a tagline yesterday, as you can see, but it just doesn't cut it.

Does anyone have any ideas for a tagline?

Tagline Definition from Wikipedia: A tagline is a variant of an advertising slogan typically used in movie marketing, commercials, and websites. The idea behind the concept is to create a memorable phrase that will sum up the tone and premise of a film, or to reinforce the subject's memory of a product or website. Some taglines are successful enough to warrant inclusion in popular culture, often becoming snowclones.

Examples of famous movie/television taglines are:

Alien - In space, no one can hear you scream.
Jaws 2 - Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water.
Love Story - Love means never having to say you're sorry.
Star Trek - To boldly go where no man has gone before.
The X-Files - The truth is out there.
Alien vs. Predator - Whoever wins... we lose.

Hmmm... I'll need to think on that one.

But I AM dying to know how your visit with Capt. went... after his "priceless" comment. HA HA HA! I hope it wasn't serious! I think you'll need to do a follow-up on that one!

What's a tagline??

How about "start spreading the muse"

Go ahead...call me lame..I can take it!

And yeah...how was the visit with Captain? His comment made me chuckle...not sure if that was the intended effect or not, but oh well..

Things went well with Capt this weekend....he was being just being funny with his "priceless" comment. Gotta love him! No more strawberry daiquiri's for me, that's for sure! I get a headache just thinking about it.

LaLa: You're so blessed, you can drink and not get into trouble.

Before I forget, my sister BunnyMama IM'd me with:

Yew Nork Babe: The Theresa That Never Sleeps. I like that one.

Or Yew Nork Babe: One Can Fran. I really didn't get that one, she had to explain it.
