How about one of those posts where you link to all different bloggers and try to think of something to say about them? Yeah? Okay. Most of them will be people who've linked to me, of course, because I am completely self-absorbed.
Sister Toldjah has linked to me and seems very nice. She has pretty eyes and lives in North Carolina. (But she's no John Edwards fan!) I have been to both North Carolina and South Carolina and preferred North Carolina. Nothing to do with Sister Toldjah one way or another, just saying.
La Shawn Barber is another nice woman who's linked to me. She's black, which I think I'm allowed to point out because she has her picture on her blog, and also because she's a conservative and therefore probably doesn't have as big a stick up her hind end about racial politics or whatever it's called where you're not supposed to point out that people are of different races even when you're not making fun of the way they behave in movie theaters. Anyway, La Shawn has a lovely smile and strong opinions expressed engagingly, so go read her.
Jeff Goldstein is going to be away from his computer for a while, so to keep his traffic up, he's recruited all sorts of guest bloggers. That should be fun. (The kid has been struggling lately, so I figured I'd throw him some traffic.)
I'm getting a headstart on kissing DC Pierson's ass now, before he gets all famous. He's been training in improv at the Upright Citizen's Brigade Theatre, which brought you people like Amy Poehler and that one guy, and it sounds like he loves it. His youthful enthusiasm and dedication to craft remind me of myself at his age, before life crushed me like the pathetic bug I am. DC's in a group called the Hammerkatz, which also makes me think of my youth, but let's save that part for the inevitable Court TV movie.
Also Eurotrash and Ryne McClaren and Colby Cosh and everybody else I cannot think of anything to write about because I am weary and ill, but I am sure that every single person who has ever linked to me is a fine strong-hearted individual of rare wit and good moral fiber (or bad, depending on your preference). Many thanks to you all, because I wouldn't be where I am today without you. Think about that one for a minute. Now please excuse me while I go empty the phlegm-bucket and pass out.
