New Blogroll Additions: A Ginormous UpdateA lot of people say they're happy to add new additions to their blog rolls. Personally, I think that's a lot of bullshit. Basically, linking other bloggers means giving attention to your direct competitors. When I go into a GM dealership, the salesman doesn't walk me over the Toyota lot and suggest that I check out the new Camry. And yet, in blogging, I'm supposed to just graciously deflect away all the attention and validation I so desperately crave to some other dude. Oh, well. Just another one of those crazy "rules" our so-called "society" imposes on us, like the requirement that keep their pants on in mixed company. On this one point, I'm in perfect agreement with Ted Kennedy. It's not always a sexual thing-- sometimes it's just about comfort. And convenience. All of the new bloggers get the Ace of Spades HQ stamp of approval. They've got good links and interesting ideas. Some are analysts; some are humorists; some are incorrigible rapscallions. Unless I'm mistaken, there's even one or two ribald jackanapes on the list. And some are Hugh Hewitt who, apart from being a fine commentator and an important voice in the conservative movement, could probably also finagle me Ann Coulter's phone number. A few of these bloggers already are getting a lot of attention; others are going to garner attention. Some of these people might even wind up as beloved television hosts. Meanwhile, I -- long-suffering I -- will languish in unrewarded obscurity; the closest I'll ever come to celebrity will remain the time I inadvertently received a cable bill addressed to Tacklebury from the Police Academy movies. If I didn't link you and you think I should have, drop me a line. I'm sure I missed people here and there. Also, some of the people I "welcome" below have actually been on the list for a couple of months, but I never actually welcomed them, so I'm welcoming them now. For one blogger -- Sydney T of Sydney T's Weblog -- I offer both a welcome and an apology, for, although I've had her "linked" for months, I had a non-working link in the blogroll, which is sort of like having an Orbitrek in your apartment-- it looks nice and all, but it's utterly useless, except perhaps as a poorly-conceived towel-rack. At any rate: I'm now pleased (not really) to welcome the following new additions to my blogroll.

CommentsThanks Ace :) Posted by: Jennifer on September 7, 2004 02:39 PM
No problem. I like your site. Posted by: ace on September 7, 2004 02:42 PM
Woo hoo! Thanks man. Unexpected to say the least. Seeing as how I just got back from a 10-day road trip, I've got little in the way of new posts, even less time to work on them but now, a whole truck-load of motivation. And no, I'm not taking it personally that I'm the last one added - and thanks for de-bunking the potential Oliverfatasswillis confusion. :) Posted by: fat kid on September 7, 2004 02:58 PM
I, too, thank you, kind sir. The honor is all yours. I promise I won't steal your readers. Maybe borrow them for a little while, just to rough 'em up a bit. You know, like a viking. Tonight, we must celebrate. I hope you can hold your liquor. Cheers, Posted by: Dave on September 7, 2004 03:12 PM
thanks ace, that's good of you now i have to go think of something interesting to write :) Posted by: francisthegreat of geek empire on September 7, 2004 03:12 PM
Wow, guess the three people that read my blog actually followed the links here! You, sir, are a gentleman and a scholar. Thanks, and keep up the great work! Posted by: TSL on September 7, 2004 04:59 PM
Thanks, wow, neat. Posted by: Yaron on September 7, 2004 05:10 PM
Ace, Posted by: Terry Notus on September 7, 2004 07:09 PM
Um, no pressure or anything... Thanks Ace. Posted by: Thebastidge on September 7, 2004 08:15 PM
Ouch. Denied. Not that I'm bitter or anything, but I'm taking you off my blogroll. Also, I'm taking my ball and going home. And since I am an Egyptian crocodile, I'm going to devour your soul. We'll see how you like that. Posted by: Sobek on September 7, 2004 08:17 PM
Sorry for the oversight. I just added you. I had assumed you were already on the list. Posted by: ace on September 7, 2004 08:26 PM
Okay, devouring cancelled. Lucky for you... Posted by: Sobek on September 7, 2004 08:36 PM
As long as we're at it, can I get you to put little sirens on either side of my link? And boost the font size? That would be sweeeeeet. Also, see what you can do about getting an animated crocodile eating Osama bin Laden instead of just the name of my blog. Again, that would be sweeeeet. Posted by: Sobek on September 7, 2004 08:38 PM
I'm still wondering how the hell I got on this list... but I won't complain. :) Thanks ace. Posted by: Rob on September 7, 2004 08:46 PM
Shucks. I feel like I owe you a beer or something. Posted by: Justin on September 7, 2004 09:26 PM
Thanks, dude! I'll try to work Paul Anka into more of my posts. Posted by: jeff on September 7, 2004 09:54 PM
Wait a minute -- some of these links aren't even real. This is bullshit! I really wanted to see I Am Curious (Pink)& Margaret Cho's Homo-A-Thon. Crap. Posted by: jeff on September 7, 2004 09:59 PM
Ace, I pay attention to you all the time, and I think you're valid, there I said it. Your teat could not taste any more melon-y-sweet. Thanks. Posted by: the UNPOPULIST on September 7, 2004 11:54 PM
I'm just a three note solo: 1) Social security, and Kerry's shitty plan for it. Thanks for the nod, although my connection is currently taking a shit, so new updates will be spotty for a bit. But the archives are fucking GOLD. Posted by: Joe R. the Unabrewer on September 8, 2004 02:35 AM
Ace, Thank you. I think I am part of the "incorrigible rapscallions," (daring to open-carry in Washington State). "Incorrigible rapscallion," I will wear this badge with honor. Posted by: Jason on September 8, 2004 02:50 AM
*quickly jumps on the bandwagon of ass-kissers* Thanks your holiness *bows deeply* My object is not to thank you with words, but remember you when I'm the big guy ;) Posted by: Digger on September 8, 2004 03:12 AM
Wow, I thought a take a perusal, hoping agaisnt hope that I'd see me- and there I was. Thats very kind, thank you! Posted by: Jane on September 8, 2004 07:52 AM
Not to pick nits, but do you suppose you could turn my link red? The black text stands out nicely against the others, but doesn't really do much when you click it. Posted by: Justin on September 8, 2004 11:40 AM
Hey, thanks Ace! I've always liked this site, just on the basis of it being a place where fools are quickly ushered out the back door. But now I actually feel like part of a potentially dangerous mob, for the first time in my life. Posted by: joe on September 8, 2004 01:34 PM
Some unknown force has fixed the spelling of my name, so instead of being coy I can gave a whole-hearted "Thanks!" You ARE the fucking hammer! Posted by: Terry Notus on September 8, 2004 06:36 PM
Thanks, Ace... I've been reading your blog a while, I'm glad that you found my work interesting as well. Posted by: thoughtomator on February 17, 2005 08:03 PM

What is the UK Regime's plan for protecting the citizens from the savage criminals they've foisted on the populace? They offer NONE. They do, however, have a plan for protecting the savage criminals from the citizens: The citizens must STAY CALM and not get angry and not share videos of citizens being attacked by savage criminals. The public keeps saying "protect us from the foreign savages you have imported against our wishes and over our objections" and the UK branch of The Regime keeps proposing plans to protect the foreign savages from the public. Soclose to what the public is demanding, just, you know, the complete opposite. Just a thought: Maybe you wouldn't have to worry about the public attacking the savage criminals if you actually introduced a plan to protect the public from the savage criminals. Maybe they wouldn't feel as if it was necessary for them to protect the public through self-help.
