It's Madness!

Bigwig has a post all picked out for BlogMadness 2003. That's where a couple of guys, Pete and Manny, have come up with yet another way for blog writers to turn their work into a spectator sport by having them face off against each other--post vs. post--in a March Madness type of showdown. Only someone desperate to attract hits and receive public humiliation would be stupid* enough to enter this thing and watch his carefully crafted prose get pummeled at the hands of a more popular blogger's rabid fans.

Naturally, I'm in.

The sticky bit is finding something written in 2003 that was not just a link to a news story or a one-liner aimed at humiliating Michele or Bill or Geekman or Scott or Les or Natalie or Buzz... um, where was I?

Oh yeah! The posts. Well, I've found a few, but I can't decide which innocent lamb to send to the slaughter. Help would be appreciated. You will have my undying gratitude, because I know none of you are low enough to demand cash.

You're Still Not Patriotic Enough, Dammit!

Just Remember

The Christmas Secret

At the very least this has given me a chance to dig through my archives and realize how much crap is taking up valuable disk space. I think this site is due for an overhaul...


*Meaning no disrespect to the creator of the Carnival of the Vanities, of course.

You implying I'm not desperate for hits?

I'm a blogger, ain't I?

Funny, I'm going through my own archives at the moment for a year in perspective.

I'd go with Telly... But that may just be me.

Hey, that's funny. I picked on you on my site today, too. Serendipity, baby!!

Yes, I am still alive! Not ready for the madness yet. Still trying to get a practice session together. Who knows I could be a Diaper Dandy (thanks buzz) someday.

I'm always reading about these sorts of things and thinking it'd be fun to participate, but I never get around to looking through my archives for stuff worthy of submitting. Oh well.

If you don't see a way to enter a comment, it's not because I don't love you. It's because they have been set to auto-close after 5 days.

Thank you, comment spammers. Thank you to hell.
