“Whadda ya’ mean y’use didn ‘t Digg my post?”

A group of highly-naive bloggers have discussed forming a union for bloggers. On the surface this is a painfully dumb idea. But maybe we should take a second look at it. Some possible benefits…

1. People leaving angry comments on union blogs will receive Teamster visit.

2. Work rules will require additional pay for sock puppetry.

3. Can wear apparel with the word “brotherhood” without looking like a Nazi skinhead.

4. Get in on the secret where Jimmy Hoffa is buried.

5. Deal with the deplorable working conditions of my home office.

6. Front row seat to watch blogging join list of jobs heading to India. (“Bloggywood”?)

7. Can call anyone with an AOL account a ’scab’.

8. Adorn car with “Friends don’t let friends read foreign blogs” bumper sticker.

9. Can finally cite the Norris-LaGuardia Act of 1932 and the Wagner Act of 1935 in the “about us” section.

10. No #10. I’m on break.
