Frank Miller gets schooled for his ass fetish and general chauvinism. Frank Miller style covers featuring the big boys (if you know what I mean).

what happens to it?

so does it just float around in the internet forever and ever, to be discovered someday by someone (not unlike myself) who is a fan of the "next blog" button?

So long, and thanks for all the fish.

2005-04-30T10:58:00.000-07:00

Well. We gave it a shot. And by we I mean me. And a few other people.

Maybe it'll be started up again someday. Maybe not.

Consider the group blog that was supposed to be retitled, only Liz never got around to it, retired.

If Laurel's permalinks worked, then I could tell you about how I'm very interested in the results of her S.A.T. experiment. Maybe that's just because I sometimes wear my glasses and sometimes don't. But either way. Godspeed!

Short end of the rock stick

2005-03-18T20:23:00.000-08:00

Kip Manley lets us all know what Tatu's old producer is up to, and apparently it's dressing some hot girl from the internet up as a Chechen suicide bomber and then, as a climax to her stage show, having guards fire paintball machine guns into the crowd. But as one bored Russian hipster says, “Machine guns, the whole silent guard routine—you’re really not going to shock anyone with that kind of thing these days.”

Holy crap. And we're upset about a little tit? Do American rock stars even kill live animals onstage anymore? I didn't think so. As far as I know, and granted I'm not exactly plugged into this scene, our biggest shockshow these days is still Marilyn Manson, who it turns out is far too intelligent and culturally aware to be all that much fun.

When does Slipknot fucking dress up like Osama Bin Laden and kick the shit out of a little black girl wearing an "I heart New York" t-shirt? THAT'S Rock 'n' Roll.

Enough of the lies!

2005-03-18T16:40:00.000-08:00

Yup, I have a blog. Have for a little while now. Nobody knew until today. Come on by and say hello.

Everyone! Point and stare at Paul! He's new!

Some other notes -- we still have plenty of people not yet participating, and if it's by choice, well, they can suck it. But if it's because they haven't been invited yet, then they should email me and join the party. And if someone should be on the sidebar, and they aren't yet, also email me or post in the comments of this post. Assuming, of course, that I've enabled comments by the time you read this.

In fact, discuss comments. Would you like them here? For all posts? Or just for maintenance/discussion/annoucement posts like this one?

Pros of comments on this blog: Snarky interpersonal communication.

Cons of comments on this blog: People might not post comments on YOUR blog; two different blogs to check for comments on your post.

I lean towards no comments with exceptions for posts like these. But this is a democracy. And by democracy I mean "group blog of which I am the sole administrator."

Hey, at least I let you guys pretend to have a say, right?

EDITED TO ADD: Please don't rise up against me. Democracy is great. Magna Carta! Who!

Did you know that Clear Channel doesn't actually own Indy 103.1? Neither did I. And I wrote a long and rambling post about it. So long that Laurel won't even bother reading it! It was all too meta not to metablog about. Ugh.

Asa, you very well know I haven't called you two gay in quite some time! (I believe the last time was when I heard about the dog walking). And while I've come to accept that maybe you and Alex and not quite the soulmates I had hoped you would be, you can find out how Grady's real soulmate is James Joyce and other miscellanea.

Dear Neil Gaiman...

What the hell?

2005-03-13T18:17:00.000-08:00

I know! A blog about blogs! It's crazy!

But as we're all accumulate blogs and photo sites and so forth, I think it'll nifty to have a way to post about cool updates, recent entries, and the usual. Plus, I'm sick of having to check eight thousand sites to see if they've been updated -- I know I can use an RSS feed reader, but my laziness has limits. Hence, a Blog Collective that can serve to unite us and inform the world of our excellence. See Damn Hell Ass Kings to see exactly what we're ripping off here.

You got a website or weblog and you wanna join in? Cool. Here's the way this can work. Simply email me or find some other way to tell me that you want in on this crazy group blog thing. Then I'll invite you to join. Perhaps later we'll get more restrictive with who can join (keeping this for those who are more closely connected), but for right now anyone's fair game.

Then, once a day or whenever you get around to updating, just post an entry to this blog about the latest updates to your blog. This is super-easy, especially if you use BlogThis! -- just put the name of your blog as the post title, and then in the content section of the blog, just write a summary/teaser of whatever you want to post, along with a link to the site. See my first entry for clarification.

Right now, the sidebar reflects a vague sampling of the blogs I know about. Please inform me if you would also like to be added there. Later on, if people end up digging this idea, I'll spring for a domain name and cooler technology. There are a ton of cool applications for this site. New Mosquito Circus radio shows can be announced here. Cash Milliondollars strips can be posted. Think of it as a public showcase of our talents and oddities. Imagine the masses, coming to worship at our feet.

Or, you know, waking up in the morning and having just a little less blog-surfing to do.

Whatever works for you.
