New Blog Stuns Southbay Blogger Scene

A new blog focused on local issues and affairs in the South Bay burst onto the scene earlier today and threw the blogger community into a state of disarray.

The blog, which uses a copyright free photograph of Santa Clara County's famous Mount Umunhum as its symbol, is named "Mount Um Malcontent" and will record the grumpy and dyspeptic sentiments of a long time South San Jose and Almaden Valley resident, Thomas H.

H, whose real name is a closely held secret, pledges that he will "pull no punches", "tell it like it is", and avoid cliches "like the plague."

Other bloggers familiar with the territory, expressed a mixture of skepticism and dismay:

"Never heard of anyone named H", said one blogger. "It sounds more like a rapper than a blogger".

"I have no idea what the guy's up to", said another. "In fact, I don't even know if it is a guy."

An air of tense anticipation seemed to settle over the South Bay.

"We'll just have to wait and see what he puts out there", said a veteran blogger. "That's assuming it is a 'he'", he added with a hint of conspiratorial innuendo.

"After all, it could be a 'she'".
