High Horse of Hilarity

Dear Mr. Robin Williams,

We here at "If I Blog It They Will Come" have been on a long self-imposed hiatus of sorts. You see, when we first heard of your heart difficulties a few months back, we thought the classy thing to do would be to lay off and allow your wounds to heal before commencing with the playful badgering in the hopes of getting you to send a photo of yourself looking at our blog.

In that time we've been all over the world...London, San Francisco (not to stalk you,just to go to an awesome BBQ in Krissy Field)...Well, just London and San Francisco, but those are pretty much opposite ends of the global spectrum. In that time we've had time to do a lot of thinking and that thinking led us to the conclusion that we'd be ready to play this game whenever you were ready. In our estimation Mr. Williams, you're ready.

Since the release of your latest film, Night At The Museum 2, there has been mounting evidence that our favorite actor/comedian is back on his high horse of hilarity and ready to take on the world. Sure we've seen you light up the talk show circuit, but it wasn't til we caught this clip from "Shack Talk" a few weeks back that we were utterly convinced that you were back on top of your game and that, well, we should be too.



So it is with great pleasure that we here at "If I Blog It, They Will Come" announce that we are back on the case; the case of getting you, Mr. Robin Williams to send a photo of himself looking at our blog. What do you say, Mr. Williams? It's been almost 2 years. Why not do us a solid for old times sake by sending a photo of yourself looking at our blog to djayek@yahoo.com? If you're not ready yet, don't worry, we'll be back next week wearing a brand new heart on our sleeve that will be beating stronger than ever, just like yours. Thanks for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,
The slightly rusty folks at "If I Blog It They Will Come"

Who's Afraid of Robin Williams?

Dear Mr. Robin Williams,

We here at If I Blog It They Will Come recently caught wind of the fact that you were up in Vancouver reprising your role as the venerable wax statue of President Theodore Roosevelt in the sequel to Night at The Museum with a winning ensemble cast that includes Ben Stiller, Ricky Gervais, Owen Wilson, Bill Hader and the wonderful Christopher Guest. While we find it completely delightful that A master of improvisation such as Mr. Guest would agree to join a cast that included THE absolute master of improv, Mr. Robin Williams, we here at If I Blog It They Will Blog It They Will Come, think we know why he had no hesitation in doing so.

You see Mr. Williams, in a scripted movie the nearly always funny Mr. Guest would not have to go toe to toe and be consistently one upped by an improv master such as yourself and therefore did not feel as though he were in danger of potential embarrassment at the hands of such an in the moment actor as yourself. Were there to be an all out off-the-cuff contest, we think things could end up getting ugly and Guest might end up crawling ingloriously back to Hollywood or Blaine, Missouri with his improv tail between his legs and with you hoisting the Heavyweight Improv title belt proudly above your head.

However, since we foresee the filming of Night at The Museum 2: Battle of The Smithsonian as a relatively civil affair between talented funnymen, you might actually miss your chance to pose proudly, hoisting the heavyweight improv title belt. In order to remedy that situation, we here at If I Blog It They Will Come recommend instead posing happily in a photo of yourself looking at our blog so that you may send it to our inbox at djayek@yahoo.com. That way we both fulfill our need to feel triumphant...or at least we do, but seeing as you're such a talented improvisational artist maybe you can pretend that the computer is your improv title belt. In any case, we thank you for your time and consideration and we look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,
The Improvisational Apprentices at If I Blog It They Will Come
