Cowboy invades B5Media and steals The Blog Herald. Well. Sort of that’s his side of the story. And we all know Cowboy has a slant all his own. We’ve all come to love it, and some of you even hate it.

Cowboy has an eye, and a vision according to each time I have seen him. He is an eloquent speaker but a horrible speller. He is truly a visionary. One you will love to meet if you ever get a chance. Poor Sap hangs out in a tea house in some ungodly burrough. Now he hardly even blogs. Handles business movements. Recently Cowboy relayed the following story:

I had my eye out for a good, umm great blog. But it was in the hands of the other guys, the ones who well notoriously known for being too sensitive when I post horrible evil comments about them. But I befriended one of their own, another Cowboy of sorts. Duncan Riley, the Australian Outlaw. The snarkiest dude around besides well err me. Yeah Im an arrogant bastard. I watched in angst when the first sale went round and round. Knowing we were in on the bidding and yet not having quite enough cash. We were a truckload of peso’s short. This time around I auctioned off my dad’s train whistle, my Michael Jordan Rookie Card, and Girlspoke’s load of secrets on ebay. Still it wasn’t quite good enough. So I picked up the phone and called The BlogMedia Inc Posse and a few relatives,friends, and gold miners. It was a dandy. We managed to pull in just enough loot to close the deal without having to call in a second round of Venture Capitalists. I had to promise to give up blogging, and to just work behind the scenes and be a good boy, so I agreed.

I stayed in the background while the investors took their shot at winning the Sitepoint Auction. It wasn’t looking so hot. Not sure why but the deal was looking to find a place in the history books as yet another auction I lost. So I picked up the GTalk and sounded out to my fellow outlaw Duncan Riley and placed a private round of talks. It was fun, It was late at night when I should have been sleeping. Umm, very much like right now. We tugged and we prodded and in the end…... I fell asleep not knowing full well that the deal would be struck although we did handshake on it via Gtalk. At last it was finished. The deal was struck. But my Michael Jordan basketball card was gone. And so was my famous Train Whistle. But atleast I still get to read the Blog Herald and not weap as much had it been turned into a political blog. This was one scenario that one bidder had in mind. Anyhow that’s all I have to say on this.

So yes Cowboy, and BlogMedia Inc. saved the blogosphere from yet another sell out. Thank God for Cowboy’s and the Wild Wild West. I have big shoes to fill. But I think I have a great teacher in Cowboy. He’s wise beyond his years. And well he’s damn good looking to. But what would I know. I wear a big black hat and violate the sacred rules of the Torah and the Sabbath.
