MY DARKEST HOUR

Over at Wizbang, you can find my entry in Bonfire of the Vanities #2. Unlike the Carnival of the Vanities (#43 is coming up Wednesday at Caerdroia) where you put your best foot forward, BotV has you planting yourself face first in the pig pen by offering up a link to your worst entry.

I can't say whether my entry is, objectively speaking, my absolute worst, but it was pretty freaking lame by any yardstick.

If strong of stomach ye be/Go forth, look, and see.

THE OTHER OBLIGATORY LINK POST

The New Blog Showcase has ended for last week, and, although I didn't win, place, or show, I did finish closer to the top than the bottom. I also got a lot of attention and went from a Microbe to an Amphibian in one week. It was a fun ride, and I just want to thank everyone who linked me. I'm sure to be stopping there again to see the up-and-comers so that I'll be able to say, "Yeah, I knew them before they were even famous".

Remember, the New Blog Showcase runs every week, so don't forget to check it out.

SYCOPHANCY ON PARADE

Frank is having a contest (with currently unknown rules and activities, much like a blogging version of Fear Factor), and I'm gonna give it try.

But first, I'm gonna grease the skids a little by helping along Frank's Instajihad

Point one: Glenn Reynolds is evil. Evil people often have hordes of evil ninja minions available to do their evil bidding. Frank must protect himself from the evil ninja hordes (if he waits for them to attack), and he must be able to conquer them (if he goes on the offensive). Therefore he needs a weapon of great power. Behold! I give you:

The Samurai 3000 Ninja Sword

Point two: Before Glenn Reynolds can be defeated, he must first be weakened. His power as a higher being comes from his popularity. His popularity can be sabotaged by spreading lies about how evil he is. Therefore I can help soften up the enemy with this piece of eye-witness testimony about Glen's evil puppy-blending habit:

 



"Glenn tricked my into following him home by offering me crystal meth, then he tried to put me in a blender."

 

By the way, Frank, if I strangle a hippy, can I get a permalink?

FROM THE CARNIVAL TO THE BLOGROLL

I first learned about David's Sketches of Strain via the Carnival of the Vanities #42 at Winds of Change. I finally got a chance to breeze around his blog and discovered that the writing which I loved so much was present in great abundance. I'm going be keeping his link handy from now on.

I also discovered this bit about that OCD seizure that occasionally possesses one while getting dressed.

I admit, there have been times when I've wasted 5 minutes looking for *that tie* when I should have left for work 5 minutes ago. I suspect that this condition may be more widespread than the author suspects. If you've ever been late to work because you were busy selecting clothing, go read this one.

If you haven't, then go read it to learn how the other half lives.

PROSTRATE GROVELING

I made Susie sad with my ungracious remarks about her color scheme. Personally, I thought she'd be impressed since I didn't call the colors "blue" and "pink". I mean, how many guys know any color names besides the Crayola 8? Anyway, I'm going to make it up to her.

First, I'll give her some blogroll gold.

Second, some pictures of men in kilts.

I hope I'm forgiven now.
