    Hi, Matt-

    Sure, I'm down. I'll send along a headshot in a bit as soon as I
    find the damned thing. Also, I'm in touch with a prominent and
    rather brilliant blogger by the name of Jeff Goldstein who says
    he'd be willing to contribute as well and who could do a damned
    good job of promoting it, being something of an internet celebrity
    with a dedicated following. More info on Goldstein:

    Let me know if you'd like me to give him your contact info; I'm
    planning on chatting with him around noon or so.

    Thanks,

    Barrett

        Hey Barrett,

        Apologies for the belated response, we've had quite a few
        submissions to weed through. I'm Matt, the creator and
        managing editor of The Zaz Report!, National Lampoon's pop
        culture humor blog: www.thezazreport.com
        <http://www.thezazreport.com>.

        I'd be honored to have you contribute to our site! You used to
        freelance for us eh? Well, welcome back! I read your
        McSweeney's piece and really enjoyed it.

        If you're interested still, you'll be added to an email list
        that will go out weekly. This email is headed up by one of the
        writers named JP - and he generally tries to get people to
        collaborate and share ideas. Basically, everything is fair
        game on the site. You can embed videos, make funny pics, blog
        about whatever. Just don't get us sued...that's pretty much
        the only requirement.

        Besides writing funny content we're hoping that you can help
        promote us. For example, if you have a site or another blog,
        link to us. Try and spread the word in general, basically.

        To get started, send me the headshot that you'd want me to
        display and I'll set you up an account. I'm sorry we can't
        offer any pay for the position, and please feel free to email
        back with any questions.

        Best,

        Matt
