Jared at Exultate Justi explains why the Left and the Right don’t get along anymore.

I might have said something like this were I yet a reasoning, thoughtful writer.

Pejman Yousefzadeh is a damn kid!

According to the mathematicians I consulted (as people with English and Philosophy degrees cannot be troubled with mere counting), he says Moxie is 32, and Pejman will be reaching that hallowed age in five months. Since I’m reaching it in a month and a handful of sand grains, that means I’m older than he is.

So now matter how much smarter than I am he sounds, he should respect his elders. Damn kids and their online “diaries.”

Perusing the paper this afternoon, I discovered the page 1 story in the Everyday section entitled Web Surfing the Presidential Pool“, and I skim it, finding in the section on Dennis Kucinich, a URL for a permalink from John Cole at Balloon Juice, featured proudly on the MfBJN blogroll.

Congrats, John. You’re in the medium time when the St. Louis Post-Dispatch notices you.

I realize I am but a knuckle-dragging software tester, so take pity on me, oh soon-to-be-IPOed development staff at Pyra Labs Google, but I think I know what’s wrong with your permalinking here on my site.

The <$BlogItemArchiveFileName$> server-side variable is not currently including the name of my archive directory, strangely enough entitled /archives/, into the path; ergo, when a user clicks this permalink, it leads them to the archive filename and post number in my root directory, but the archive file is not in that directory. It’s in /archives/.

Please translate this into Hindi and have Uncle Ray’s friends fix the problem.

Also, if one of my dear readers wants to link directly to my post, please add the archives directory to the URL by hand. For example, if you right-click the permalink link at the bottom of the post and select “Properties,” you’ll see this URL currently:

http://stlbrianj.blogspot.com/2004_01_04_archive.html#107352521550898577

If you add the /archives/ directory to the URL, like so:

http://stlbrianj.blogspot.com/archives/2004_01_04_archive.html#107352521550898577

It will work.

Undoubtedly, status.blogger.com will acknowledge this problem once they have it solved. In a couple of weeks.

Notice this page on my “innocent” wife’s blog: cat_recipes.html.

Maybe I should take back what I said about her conmingling cat care books and cookbooks.

Put the fruitcake back in the freezer and dig into the cheesecake.

Due to popular demand (my blog, so to win the popularity contest, a candidate only needs one vote), I have created an Amazon Wish List so all three of my readers can shower me with material goods.

Remember, it’s better to give than to receive.

To make it convenient, I have added a comment link to the template. Any time I move you enough to want to comment, it’s a sign that I have done well, and should be rewarded; hence, it takes you directly to the wish list. The best way to comment. With your wallet.

Another one falls to commentitis! The Meatriarchy guy now features comments on his blog. Go tell him what you really think about him.

Read Roger Simon. He’s a blogger. He writes mystery novels. He wears a hat.

There’s nothing about this man not to like!

Kim du Toit has a point.

My site, in French.

Who would do such a thing?

He has a capital idea for you:

The Girls of Afghanistan

Go see what Michele from A Small Victory has to say.

I assume she’s not kidding, and she knows.

Anger Management gives to you:

The Fusking.

Porphyrohenitus provides a litmus test you can use to determine if you’re liberal (acidic, I presume) or conservative (basic).

I am a Member of the Dreaded NeoCon Cabal. Do we have magic in a cabal, or is that a coven?

Darn. At the next cabal committee meeting, I am going to move we reorganize into a NeoConCov.
