On “‘Drinking Song’”
Thanks, Anne!
On “‘The Divide’”
It's funny how that works. I haven't written any good songs in ages and then I have this huge crisis and the songs appear. But I really hope the same thing as you...because this is really shitty.
"
Yeah, every now and again a line like that appears and I actually remember to write it down...
"
Me too, North. Thanks.
"
Appreciate that, Maribou.
"
Thanks!
"
Thanks Stillwater! Means a lot to me.
On “‘The Historian’”
Thanks, Tod. I do need to post more!
On “We Love That Basketball”
Blaise,
You may not see a problem with your comment, and it may be that you didn't mean it to come across the way it did. However, even the most charitable of readings puts you in the wrong here. This is deeply inappropriate regardless of your motives.
Please don't make me step in like this. You're a smart guy, but you need to understand that what you say here is as a representative of the site and you're held to the highest standard. You've crossed the line here.
On “5 People Who Should Have Played Batman Instead of Ben Affleck”
A few years ago this would have bothered me, but after Affleck started directing my faith in him has been restored. I think he'll be fine.
On “Somebody needs to make a Carlos Danger movie”
That is a good one. I'm a bit jealous.
"
The voters in both red and blue regions would seem to disagree. Though I do think it's quite vile and abhorrent. It's just that politics is a marketplace and people seem ready and willing to settle for this sort of product.
"
I know. Makes me sad.
"
Oh pish posh. That's a bunch of malarkey disguised as some sort of argument. Sound and fury old boy. Sound and fury.
On “Welcome to Ordinary Times”
DRS - You can find threads several ways. Click on the Sub-Blog/Category on the front page and you'll see all those posts. Or you can look at the Contributors box in the right sidebar or the Archives box in the footer.

Well the non-Disqus comments apparently broke beyond repair...

Thanks, zic. Sorry about the slider. Maybe I can find a way to tone down the animations.
"
Thanks!
"
We can't just drop it. We could do The League, but I'm not sure it conveys that this is The Blog. So I think something indicating that this is the main blog is important.
"
Thanks, Burt. Don't worry, I will try to be like an annoying NPR drive and keep posting beggar's posts until we have every red cent.
"
No. Not for the sub blogs.

You can have Disqus use your old gravatar.

Thanks!

You can change your name from within your Disqus account.

Yeah, I need to figure out how to get the byline up top for sure. Thanks.
