Get Well Soon

Dear Mr. Robin Williams,

We here at If I Blog It They Will Come were disheartened (for lack of a better word) by the news this week that you had to cancel four shows on your now somewhat aptly named "Weapons of Self Destruction" tour. We became slightly worried when reading that you had checked in to a Miami Hospital with "Heart Issues." We contemplated not posting and taking a breather this week as you did the same. Instead, we decided that the show must go on, but instead of going through the whole song and dance of requesting a photo of yourself looking at our blog, we just thought we'd wish you the best of health and let you know that you're in our thoughts. It is our hope that you'll return to the road soon feeling as fresh as ever, but take your time. Life is not a race although sometimes it feels like it. Get well soon RW.

Sincerely,
The Concerned Folks at If I Blog It They Will Come

The If I Blog It Joke Joint

Dear Mr. Robin Williams,

We here were delighted to see you kick off your much anticipated "Weapons of Self-Destruction" tour this weekend at the Palace Theater in Columbus, OH . While we are certainly excited about the fact that you'll be performing in large theaters before sellout crowds, we here at If I Blog It They Will Come prefer the small-time comedy venues with names like "Chuckles" and "The Laugh Hole. There's something ever so pure about performing in such cleverly named joke joints before unsuspecting crowds that really gets our juices flowing.

We here at If I Blog It They Will Come have a lot in common with the Comedy Castles and Laff Lounges of the world. We like to think of this little site as our own small venue for comedy on the web. The only difference is, we don't see that many visitors throughout the course of the day and we don't have a two drink minimum. Plus, we're tough on hecklers.

It's our hope that throughout this tour you take a few moments to remember the little people who attend these holes in the wall, the working men and women who are facing economic hardship that may not be able to afford such high priced affairs at the Borgata and the Landmark Theater in Richmond, Virginia. We're not suggesting that on all your nights off you stop into one and entertain the proletariat...maybe just a few nights. And maybe just maybe on one of those nights you'll choose to entertain the unsuspecting few who choose to frequent our humble yet hilarious venue on a daily basis. You don't even have to dream up new material or even physically be anywhere. All you have to do is take a photo of yourself looking at our blog and send it to djayek@yahoo.com. If you want to include something else off the cuff you're more than welcome too as we know how often Robin Williams and spontaneous hilarity go hand in hand.

In any case, we thank you for your time and consideration and look forward to you stopping by sometime soon.

Sincerely,
The Funny Bonez at If I Blog It They Will Come

Weapons of Self Destruction

Dear Mr. Robin Williams,

We here at If I Blog It They Will Come recently heard the wonderful news that our favorite actor/comedian was heading out on a full fledged comedy tour for the first time since 2002. Needless to say, we were absolutely delighted that the "Weapons of Self Destruction" tour would be heading our way, but when we examined the tour dates further we saw that the local shows coincided with our own plans to take our blog on the road. You see, Mr. Williams, for quite a while now we've been planning a tour in support of our own "Weapon of Self Destruction," otherwise known as this blog. It's going to be a mobile If I Blog It They Will Come exhibit where we drive from metropolis to metropolis showing off our collection of photographs of celebrities looking at our blog. It's not so much a tour as it is a continental drift in an old Honda with our laptop, but the fact of the of the matter is, we're worried that we might not be able to catch either of your shows in Atlantic City or the one at Mohegan Sun, since we plan to be traveling around that time.

What scares us even more is that we'll only have our two photos of Kevin Costner to show off to the masses who are clamoring for photos of esteemed and accomplished celebrities viewing our blog. Don't get us wrong, we love us some Costner, but two photos an exhibit does not make. In other words, this tour won't be complete without the welcome addition of a photo of you looking at our blog. So what do you say RW...How's about doing us a solid and sending us a photo of you looking at our blog to djayek@yahoo.com? Once we get the photo we'll even schedule one of our exhibit dates to coincide with one of the shows on your tour. It's the least we could do for what we'll consider the ultimate act of fan appreciation. Thanks for your time and consideration. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,
The Photo Exhibit Curating Folks at "If I Blog It They Will Come"
