Thanks, Tabitha!

Tom blogs at VA Right, and Tabitha is mostly too busy for such.

Last night’s reception at the Crystal City Sheraton answered the question: if bloggers were Trekkies, would Scott Ott be Spock, Stephen Green be McCoy, and Bill Whittle be Kirk?

No: nobody was weird enough to ask that question.

BlogCon what it must be like to show up at the MTV Music awards if you’re a musician; getting to meet people whom you admire and discovering that, wow, folks like your stuff.

While he declined to have a picture taken, meeting the Iowahawk was a treat. I’d say it’s fair to characterize him as of the Charles Martin Smith mold. Unabashedly gushing, I allowed that The Idiossey had inspired me to write OediPOTUS Wrecks. Not to tout my own trash, mind you, but reality seems to be tending toward the deus ex machina at the climax.

The other rock star blogger that I’m pleased to have met was Ace of Spades, who is as non-descript Iowahawk, but writes some hilarious, if a trifle edgy, headlines, of which here are two related examples:

Ace: This New Rasmussen Poll Makes Me Want to Dress Up Like Jame Gumb And Put Marco Rubio In My Victim-Hole
Marco Rubio: I’m Calling The Police
Ace: There You Go With Those Mixed Signals Again		 Ace: This New Poll Makes Me Want To Devour Marco Rubio’s Life Essence So That I Can Transform Into Him
Marco Rubio: Please Stop Being Creepy
Ace: Then Please Stop Sending Me Psychic Phone Calls Through My Grandmother’s Skull

Today’s agenda seems full of useful stuff, so check back during the day, as the little netbook gets put through its paces.

Apropos nothing, check out tokarski21 on YouTube, who serves up interesting historical tidbits in a brief, entertaining fashion.

    Any sightings of Patrick Ruffini, Jon Henke or Soren Dayton? Were they even invited. Just wondering.

    I think Stacy has outstanding BS-debits dating back to early ’97…
