I just stumbled on this trying to find out what the hell happened to Reverend Mykeru…
Kinja Card for WHUZZUP – It’s… it’s…
Well, I don’t know what it is, but it’s pretty cool! And it ties in to Technorati, Way Back Machine, Alexa and all sorts of goodies.

Oy. What a mess.
So much for us all being back to normal after November 3rd, huh?
I’ve thought long and hard on what to say about all the bitterness, sniping, gloating, attacking, crazy talk, suicides and threats going on.
Here goes….
Imagine us all agreeing on every single thing…
Linking only to people who share our views and our values and our opinions….
Reading page after page of people who think exactly like us…
Would that suck ass, or what? 
I’d be bored to fucking tears in a half hour flat.

Chicken Hawk Down – By Tom Tomorrow
Hee hee haw haw HAAAAAAA!!!!
*falls off chair*
(I’m ok.)
It seemed to have caused a stir a week or two back. (I’m late for the party again, what else is new. But Tom Tomorrow nailed in six panels what I have been trying to say for over a year.).

I’ve closed the comments for the contest…
I’ve got a couple of great submissions FROM Jack, Toxiclabrat, and Crazy Tracy
(Kare is unfortunately ineligible, since after all she owns the diary site in question… but has been a really good sport through all of it.).
Somehow, I thought it would be a no-brainer, but I’m really stuck.
Q: “What is a bhoomi-bhoomi?”
- Jack – “An indian word for Mother Earth” (the running gag that followed was priceless)
- Toxiclabrat – “Man, I thought it was a white version of Bling..Bling..”
- Crazy Tracy – “It’s lesbian sex, using a dildo, a cordless drill and a sit-and-spin.”
I need some help… people.

The web is off-kilter.
And like everything bad in this world, I accept full responsibility for it.
One of these days… possibly in the next few months, I am reformatting this page. I want to go for a more “newsier” type format. A “Top Story” and then excerpts to whatever else I put down. You’ll notice I don’t UPDATE much, because most people rarely read past the first post, so I want to make it so they can catch *everything* with a mere glance, and save themselves hours of surfing through crap on the web.

Well, I’m not quite sure if I’m welcome here anymore but I wanted to point a few things out.
1. The original intention of my post was to point out how Beermary has a track record of mis-reading things and attacking people. It’s now a train wreck gone out of control.
2. Donna and I were two *completely different* incidents totally unrelated to this “anti-gay” thread disaster.
3. Calling someone on my site an asshole makes you no better than these guys swinging off my chandelier and dropping banana peels on my floors right now.
4. I’ve stood by Matt’s remarks in my comments.
I’m not sure where you got the impression that I was delinking you, but I happen to enjoy your topics and your insight, as you’ve been around the block. Whether you wish to write off a slew of us over one topic gone awry… well, that’s your decision, and I’ll respect that.
Maybe it’s the heat. I know I’ve really been edgy the past couple of weeks.
Don’t get up. I know the way out…

Not getting involved (or aggravating yourself) with all the screwed up people on the web is the true key to an enjoyable online experience.
Life’s too short, and some people aren’t worth it.

Moving on to bigger and better things…
Coming Soon!
Project #1 – Pennsylvania Music Awards – Much like his wildly successful Hawaiian Music Awards, Johnny Kai is bringing the magic here to the mainland. I mention this now, as I know a lot of musicians in Pennsylvania… and I want to get the buzz going now. The Awards will be launched May 2004. I’ll keep you posted on registration, voting, and all that fun stuff when the site goes INTO development in a month or two.
Project #2 – Super Secret Project – Probably coming out in the Fall. I have contacted a few people privately about it. There’s a lot of excitement. But that’s all I’m allowed to say. It’ll be open to everybody, but there’s only a small SELECT GROUP of people that I trust at this moment.
Newz & Gossip
Will the REAL Moxie please stand up – Oy-friggin’-vey. Apparently the age old blog war of “Hey, that’s my name… you stole it!” has reared it’s ugly head (yet again). Moxie.nu -vs- Moxiepop.I won’t waste my time linking to either of them, as this qualifies as the “Dumbest CatFight of the Year (so far)“… instead I direct you to Kevin Parrot’s hilarious photoshop coverage of the “Rock ‘em Sock ‘em Moxie Boxing” match.
(Try and say THAT three times fast!)
New girls in town (at least to me) – I’m not sure if they are aware of the Warblogger degree that extreme right-wingers are forbidden to link to sites like mine (or at least deny being my friend), but I found them in my referrers anyway: Right We Are! – A conservative, pro-US, Republican blog by two chicks on the right side. I may not be able to stomach yet another “Bush can do no wrong” site…… but well, I refuse to talk politics on my site anymore anyway.
… and Republican girls *are* sexy!
Welcome to CyberTown, ladies.

The World According To Me.Com (aka the “404 page”)
2000 – 2003 Rest In Pieces
Feel free to laugh, gloat and wait for “The Got-no-site-ed One” to whine and grovel at the feet of the Hidden Cabal of Those Who Run The Web (although we don’t exist) for mercy.
In this community, if you mess with one… you mess with us all.
Some lessons need to be learned the hard way. Like “Freedom Of Speech” requires a little bit of responsibility. Like HAVING your webhost pull the plug on your site as you are in violation of their Terms Of Service (not limited to “slander and libel”, “death threats”, “menacing and harrassment”).
*Does the heinie dance of victory* This community truly doth rock!
Thanks everyone!!!!

Well, it appears TGO aka King Stormtrooper
Dots O' Links
Here are a list of other great blogs and journals for you to check out. Due to Technorati's way of ranking sites, and I don't have a blogroll, I've pulled these right out of my Links Page.
