What if I were to tell you I am actually Dan, cleverly disguised in an attempt to take over all things vintage? Notice how I hit top commentator and I’m still around? Peculiar, no?

I didn’t think you’d believe that. I tried.

Anytime someone expresses an interest in teaming up with me on something, they too tend to disappear. Their blogs go silent or offline, they don’t comment on other blogs, they are never heard from again.

I have nothing to do with it, I swear.

I would team up with Dan- but I have been reading Marketing Deviant
and I believe that I am going to be the target of a blogger assassination attempt…

I have too many enemies now to team up with anyone. Pete- I don’t think you understand how competitive and dangerous the underworld of vintage is.

Besides any time I team up with someone online they disappear. I won’t name names- but it’s a fact. I think my enemies take them down.

How do I know that you two or not plotting against me even as I type this?

Everyone does not love puppies…

Thank you for the lawsuit?

I think that would probably be a trademark issue. Isn’t Vince McMahon pretty sue happy?

Monty Python, actually. You don’t remember the Spanish Inquisition?

Yeah, sending them to me would be a big help. How could I resist posting a photo of a puppy? Everyone loves puppies.

I never thought a comment war about antique blogging would be so exciting. You two should team up and make a blog called Antiques Smackdown (the domain is available, btw). Model it after WWE, make inflammatory remarks like, “your Richard Alcock Ironstone Dishes are nothing more than cheap replicas made in China!” Dude, it would be a hit.

You can thank me later.

That comment sounded like something Mel Brooks would write. Which is good, IMO.

It’s a camera phone picture, so that does relate to Pete.

And, my blog mojo is all gone. It’s 1/4 of what it used to be.

You are going down. I work in secret, so my blog will sneak up on yours when you’re least expecting it. Nobody expects the Antiques Inquisition! Our weapon is secrecy and coolness, er, our two main weapons are secrecy, coolness and photos. Um, our three main weapons are secrecy, coolness, photos and an almost fanatical obsession with yesterday. Wait, I’ll start again. Our four main weapons are secrecy, coolness, photos, an almost fanatical obsession with yesterday, and too much time spent on eBay. Oh, bloody heck…

Oh I see a Wordless Bonus eh…
This really doesn’t have anything to do with Pete-
you are afraid you are losing your blog mojo!

See I posted two of my cat in one Wordless Wednesday post- because I am the superior blogger! You are intimidated and therefore felt the need to post another of your nekkid dog. My cat had clothes on too- which was way more cooler then your dog.

It’ is all because as you say “I am posting like mad,”
but it is actually you who are afraid and will relinquish all
postings on “antiques” and “vintage” to the Master Blogger…

“This is all to easy!”
