Late Friday afternoon, after exchanging emails with an assignment editor, KSDK reporter Ashley Yarchin came to Punching Kitty headquarters to do a story about our recent post “Craigslist: Anyone Seen the Cardinals Team We Had in April?” and in turn, Punching Kitty the blog.

Once setting up all the one-man-show reporter gear in our office we talked on camera about when I started Punching Kitty, what its about, then specifically about the Craigslist post followed by a dramatic reading of my posting. I mentioned the name of the site several times, we positioned shots so that the logo and name were on screen and when she left I gave her a sticker. Below is the piece KSDK aired Friday night during their 10 pm broadcast. Watch it like you don’t read this site and then see if you know where to go to find more of my writing…

Our illustrious Editor will be a judge at the Luna Lounge’s bikini contest this Saturday at 3pm, so if ya got nothing going on, come on out ($5 cover), check out some ladies in bikinis and get yourself a new Punching Kitty sticker (shown below).

The Luna Lounge is located on Gravois just south of Chippewa (full directions).

If you stop by, find us and say hello!

We had the pleasure of heading over to KDHX’s South City studios last night to hang out on KDHX’s Collateral Damage show along with the RFT’s Chad Garrison and host DJ Wilson.

We talked about the origins of this very website, the best place to find genitalia on the internet, the rarely spoken topic of our little “blogging break” last year and our various battles with local “celebrities”.

Punching Kitty? …on MySpace? No sir. Not us. Never.

…but yet, here we are…kinda…not really…

Punching Kitty?! This kid is Punching Kitty? Lets take a closer look:

I would like to think we would have more friends and comments if this was really us.  In fact, this is the part where our heart goes from a little piece of coal to a big giant hart that breaks through the magnifying box…we should hook this kid up! Anyone still have a MySpace account? Yes you do. If you don’t use any more, that’s even better! Go on there one last time and add this kid as your friend! Leave a comment!

One of our fine readers out there took a few of our stickers, modded them, and stuck them on his motorcycle helmet. Which means that as of this moment, this gentleman will have to get a little helmet for down below because the chicks will be throwing themselves at his crotch all day and night. I’m not talking figuratively and I’m also not one of those douches that say ‘literally’ when they mean figuratively. The is the reals: Chicks will lose control and dive for his crotch.

We’ve had our little Advertising link up on the top of the site since day one, but really it had nothing there. We were playing it cool, as if we were leaning on the hood of our website with an unbuttoned jeans jacket and one leg up on the car.

Now we’re actually making a go at this.

A trip to the advertising page now gives you sample ad sizes and prices for a month of advertising on a site that’s just too cool for  your competitors. We’re talking as low as $20 a month. For our sexy readers we think about when we’re lonely because we love them so much it hurts our special parts, don’t worry: There will be no more space on this site taken up by ads than there is now. Which is good for you, the readers, and for you, the advertisers, since your ad won’t get lost in a whirlwind of blinking crap.

Lets start off Friday with some catching up on some news that while important, we didn’t deem as potentially funny as the “Web Center” and a Rally’s shootout.

1. St. Louis based online retailer w00t.com was sold to Amazon.com. What do you mean you’ve never heard of it?! …you have a tan don’t you?

2. Metro debuts new “trollies” (read: Busses with stickers on them). How does this help that fact that you can take the Metrolink downtown at night, but not back home after the bars close? Next month Metro will start just standing outside their office jingling their keys yelling “Who wants to go for a ride?!”

Subtitle: Dear guy: We know. It’s cool.

Sometimes people don’t like this site. It happens, and is expected. Whether it’s because we’ve made fun of them or they just don’t like our humor, its going to happen and that’s totally cool with us. No one is expected to like everything. For example, we don’t like Christian Rock. It’s horrible. That’s no sleight on anyone’s belief system mind you, just a preference, a preferences that drives us to not listen to Christian rock…it does not however make us want to write odd notes to the people that make Christian Rock. That would just be creepy and make us look like a retarded dick that has nothing better to do with this time.

If you didn’t know, we were on vacation most of last week (and it turned out, yesterday as well…whoops!).

So, what did we miss?

Now back in the saddle, here’s what we could figure out:

1. A few months back, two cops from LaGrange shot a chained dog. Now its a viral video. (See what I did there? I linked to a story the RFT did instead of just doing the repeat thing which isn’t our style…but happens. )

A year seems so long ago. Isn’t that what you are supposed to say when you talk about things that were a year ago? We don’t know. What we do know is that every time we hear the word long we giggle. Well no matter how you start this out, we’ve gotten a lot of new readers in the last few months, so here are some classics.
