Blogging Is Re-Blogging
Smitty has already mentioned Little Miss Attila’s blogging guidelines, from which I noticed this: After you’ve posted something, editing should be limited to fixing typos, smoothing out the grammar, and modifying an egregious word choice. Be careful in doing this: once someone quotes your entry somewhere, you’re going to look like an idiot if you’ve […]
Heady Complements Indeed
by Smitty Valley of the Shadow puts this blog in company with Instapudit, Gateway Pundit, and Atlas Shrugs in “The Four Horsemen of the Ablogalypse: 2010 Version”. It would be tedious to say anything other than “thank you”. However, it would be silly not to note that you need a micrometer to measure the distance […]
OK, I Found The Moderate Part
by Smitty There is moderation, and I’ve emphasized it. However, using the word ‘unprecedented’ in the same participle made my shizzle fizzle. But this is just one post; we should look at a substantial sample space, and let the conclusions form themselves. This is part of the effort to help these poor folks recall what […]
Jim Treacher, Goldbricking Again
Goofing off. Slacking. Like a “broken tibia” is some kind of excuse or something . . . Welcome to Washington, Treacher. This is the big leagues, OK? You’ve got to learn to play with pain. Would Bob Novak let a minor thing like a fractured tibia keep him away from the office? Hell no. If you can’t handle getting run over […]
The Off-Beat Observations Of Jeff G.
by Smitty The Onanny State: That progressivism…keeps failing as it runs into the realities of the market…seems never to trouble those like Surber; in fact, their idea of intellectualism, inasmuch as it brackets actual data in favor of privileging political and social desire, is not really intellectualism at all. Instead, it’s a rather wordy masturbation […]
Iowahawk Rocks. Again.
by Smitty One likes to get beyond the “look here” post. The latest Iowahawk skewering of liberalism achieves his usual high standards. Let me point out a couple of bits that might escape if you for whatever reason. The title alludes to Joseph Conrad’s classic Heart of Darkness. This masterpiece (and I’m a tremendous Conrad […]
To Be Fair to Rachel Maddow . . .
. . . it was hard to tell exactly what the sounds coming from the MSNBC host meant. They were sort of a little bit muffled by, you know, the pudding in her mouth: Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy Maddow’s quote: Just for reference here, when Tom Tancredo talks […]
SWF, Natural Blonde, D.C.
Yeah, natural blonde — blonde eyebrows, even. Twenty-something. After back-to-back long-term relationships, she’s on the dating scene for the first time . . . well, ever, really. And she’s in Washington, D.C., a magnet for arrogant beta-males-who-think-they’re-alpha. And she’s got a blog: Date Me, D.C.! If that doesn’t haul in the traffic, I don’t know what […]
