Malott Gets DSL
This past week Malott finally "got around to" switching from AOL Dial-Up to ATT DSL-Pro.
Amazingly, he was able to install it himself.
What does this mean for Malott's Blog?
Practically nothing.
However with dial-up, Malott was unable to post pictures on his blog at home, and had to take his camera to work and load them there.
The entire staff at Malott's Blog wishes to apologize in advance for what we fear will be an endless parade of self portraits and other forms of self promotion indicative of the pathetic craving for attention and transparent narcissism which has plagued this blog from its inception.
Thank you.

Sweet....
Janice,
Is that your caption for my picture?
...Works for me.
Awesome...
Don't you have anyone to feed that craving for attention?
Faithful bloggers will wait in anticipation of future self portraits.
That pathetic craving for attention and transparent narcissism is half of this blog's charm.
What the other half is eludes me...
Anonymous,
Thanks for visiting.
Mine is a solitary world. Insurance salesmen despise my presence. Tele-marketers hang up on me. There is a woman who lives in the bedroom down the hall, but she is imaginary, and I must do her part of our conversations - she has a whiny, gravelly voice and it hurts my throat.
Skyepuppy,
At least I'm half-charmed. That's more than I thought I had.
Nice hat.
Oh Chris, you KNOW that caption was meant for your picture.....
Getting DSL installed is sweet, but not as sweet as you, and that hat.
Thanks Janice,
I was trying for one of those Gary Larson-Far Side "Oooooo" moments.
And Jacob,
You know, I might be able to get you a "W" hat...
Dearest Jacob,
I keep returning to this page hoping I'll see your picture. You are a powerful man, and yet a man of letters. It's such a rarity in this world of pasty little men with little to say.
My invitation stands. This coming Saturday night Su Lin is visiting the compound to prepare something Chinese, and you look like the kind of man who could put the moo goo back in my gai pan.
Chris,
Oh dear! It looks like I gave the wrong impression.
It's all charm. I just don't have a name for the other half.
Skyepuppy,
Thanks, but you're probably just dazzled by my picture. That's a face that could turn some heads - and probably a couple stomachs.
And Rose,
You sound like a lonely woman. How long has Joe been gone now? For that matter, how long have you been gone now?
Chris,
You know, that particular picture makes you look like Alton Brown on the Food Network. (If you don't know who he is, try these two links...)

Oh and congrats on the High Speed connection. I look forward to more pictures. Lots more. I'm always up for a laugh!
Oops, my links didn't quite make it onto the post. I'll try one more time...

Christina,
That's funny because one of the girls at work said exactly the same thing.
I personally feel that my face is totally nondescript. If my face was food it would be toast. No butter. No jelly. Just toast.
YES, PLEASE DO!
It can be my Haloween costume.
Rose, sweets... I am of the le faggot persuasion.
But anyway -- aren't you dead?
Dear Jacob,
I smoked myself when I was younger. I used a delicately carved ivory cigarette holder that I picked up in Botswana. If I can find it, and if it suits you, perhaps we could call it a gift?
When you visit, if you need a "fag" as you say, we can retire to the library.
Chris,
Did you ever imagine that 1 picture would elicit so many comments? I'm confused. If the woman in the bedroom down the hall is imaginary then why wouldn't you give her a nice smooth purring voice instead of a dippy whiny voice? After all she can be the woman you want her to be. Are we cynical when it comes to women?
Seriously, you will love DSL. I got it last summer and it's great. So much faster. I agree with Christina. More pictures as I'm always up for a good laugh too.
Anonymous,
I'm not sure why, but when I do her voice my throat tightens up and it comes out whiny and gravelly.
Maybe I'm allergic to the wig.
A fag in the library would be most delightful. You can come too if you like.
I sure do feel sorry for that woman of your imagination. Wig? Not only does the poor soul have a gravelly voice but now she has to wear a wig! I hate to think how you would describe her other physical attributes. Work on that imagination my friend! If there isn't a live woman in the picture then at least imagine one that would rock your world.
Wait! I just figured it out. The imaginary woman is decked out for Halloween and you are dressed as a solitary blogger.
