O, the Audacity! …To Be Young, Feminist and Built

MN Observer links to Ann Althouse’s scandalized shitfit so I don’t have to. Oh, and be sure to read the entire comments thread.

Now Jessica of Feministing (the object of this frenzy of onehanded wingnut conjecture) responds.

BTW, dear Jessica (says I): Keep standing up straight; chin up; shoulders back. You make me proud, [...]

Wege Redux

Yeah, maybe because I’ve done more than my fair share, I know a little bit more than some other folks do about just how much fun it is to rib the old Wegian.   Still, today I’ve just gotta say: damn, it’s good to have Norwegianity back!

He’s in particularly fine fettle today. Go [...]

Looking forward to the Annual Brad conference in Las Vegas next year…

Had the opportunity yesterday to watch a taping of our favorite ad-vivisection TV show Mental Engineering, which as you may know is hosted by our favorite DL irregular John Forde.

(Go here – scroll down — for a really crappy photo of John taken at the 331 Club during Kosapalooza in May. It’s really [...]

There’s a light over at the Wegenstein place

A few nights ago at the entrance to the vast, deserted, crumbling blog that was once Norwegianity…

SECURITY GUARD: No ma’am. I don’t see “itinerant band of Norwegian lutefisk wranglers” anywhere on my Approved Visitors list.

SECURITY GUARD: Oh yes, ma’am. Very sure. I don’t see anything about a “lady bloggers night” [...]

Channeling KvM

Over at the Power Liberal, Smartie is blogging like KvM today.   He’s clocked 9 posts so far.  Hang on for every breathless detail!

Get it? Got it. Good.

Michael Brodkorb of MDE and other conservative henchmen stooges sycophants bloggers met with the President’s favorite turd blossom Karl Rove on Friday during the Überweasel’s visit to Minnesota. By all accounts the hourlong blogger briefing was a hot ‘n’ heavy session of high level GOP strategy. Brodkorb was heard to murmur “Pinch me! [...]

Weekend Recap

This was a fun weekend. Will wonders never cease?

I took Friday off and spent the entire day wandering from one delight to another, and just really enjoying the absence of deadlines and quotas and goals and imperatives. Ahh. Peace –it’s wonderful.

For Whom the Billmon Tolls

When I first started blogging about three years ago I kept hearing the name “Billmon” invoked whenever the blogospheric conversation turned to listing the best writers.  I learned early on that it was usually a good idea to search for the writings of the most-repeated names.  More often than not the search led me to brilliant essayists such as Barb O’Brien (the [...]

O Great and Powerful Kos

Well, that’s it. The jig is up. The secret’s out. It’s all true, my droogies. Every word of it .
