Blogger "Symposium" at Right Wing NewsFrank from IMAO, Michele from ASV, Bill from INDC, and (ahem) lowly I all kibbitzed for an hour at John Hawkins' Right Wing News site. Oh yeah, he was "moderating," I guess you'd call it, although it was pretty unmoderated. It was kind of like an AOL chat room with one woman and a dozen 16 year old boys, all of us trying to get out our best internet pick up lines. ("Baby, you so fine, your daddy must have had a shrouded T3 connection to download all that fine pixelation into your ass. You're l33t, sweets.") Since I didn't have any good lines, I just kept to the background mostly, hoping the chick would notice the very interesting Morissey quote in my sigline. And, to be fair, I guess it didn't help when I began asking people if they wanted to cyber. The edited version looks sort of like something you can actually follow, though. I made the admission that I've softened on Wonkette. I still don't think she's funny, but I do think that her daily news round-up is useful. Or it would be, if I read her site, which I almost always don't. I didn't slip the f-word or even the douchebaggery-word past Hawkins. Damnit, that was half of my schtick. Thanks big to Allah for suggesting me to Hawkins for this thing. Unbelievable Oversight: Damnit, I wasn't prepared for the "which female bloggers do you read question," and I stupidly forgot to mention the wonderful Florida Cracker, who's not only a great blogger, but who's been a big cross-pollinator with this site since way back. Wayyyy back. Way back, like to March. I'm sorry, Florida. A mention on RWN would have been good for some exposure but I just completely brain-froze on it. Update: John was kind enough to parenthetically correct my inconsiderate oversight. Thanks, man. posted by Ace at 01:44 AM
CommentsI think you were in my class at school. The kid that always got his hand up before mine. I like your blog because you don't take yourself so seriously that all who come should envy your journalistic prowess. You're a straight up guy that tells it like it is. Bill is a self-important pontificater. Better hear what he has to say or he'll slime ya'. Frank J. is the wannabe class clown. I used to read, him but he's lost me forever with his Sunday post. I lump Hawkins and Michele in the same boat: Serious and determined. (sorry 'bout the same boat Ace). You all seemed taken aback by the monetary returns being gleened from the blogosphere. IMHO though, I think the popularity will die down after the election. That's going to pare down sites like the Daily Kos, Wonkette, DU, CrushKerry, et al. What's left are going to be blogs with diverse opinion and scope. Hopefully this blog will continue and hopefully without "Eddie and the Cruisers". Posted by: Ron on October 12, 2004 03:53 AM
It's been edited to include me. Thanks. I won't get started on the female bloggers coozing it up for hits or I'll never get out of here. Posted by: Donnah on October 12, 2004 09:57 AM
An Eddie and The Cruisers mention... how ironic. Posted by: Ari on October 12, 2004 10:42 AM
Ace - I was channel flipping from CNN to Fox the other day and was stopped by Wonkette's presence on CNBC. She and four people I'd never heard of were on Tina Brown. I cracked up about several things: 1 - Cox was the one person on Brown's panel of "journalists" that I'd ever heard of; nice A team Tina! Posted by: Dave Pasquino on October 12, 2004 11:13 AM
Props for mentioning Flordia Cracker. Posted by: H.D. Miller on October 12, 2004 11:58 AM
I understand Bill's concept of modifying your blogging because of your readers. I somehow ended up on the blogroll of a Russian Orthodox priest, and I'm now afraid of using headlines like "Jonah Goldberg is on fucking fire." Posted by: Joe R. the Unabrewer on October 12, 2004 12:16 PM
Why is TV shows a no target hyperlink in my previous comment? I did not do that, so how did it happen? Posted by: Dave Pasquino on October 12, 2004 01:29 PM
You're selling out, Ace? Say it ain't so. Posted by: someone on October 12, 2004 05:01 PM

In solidarity with the MSM, Rich Lowry and National Review vilified the Covington Kids as racist agitators back in 2019. Now, it’s Rich Lowry being canceled for an accidental slip of the tongue that sounded like a forbidden word. There’s a lesson here for the Polite Right, but they won’t learn it. [Buck]

The Lost Classics of Yacht Rock
You know you can't fool me I've been loving you too long It started so easy You want to carry on I'm not sure this is even Yacht Rock. This might just be very soft rock. I can't see myself sniffing cocaine from a Boat Hoe's cleavage to this song, which is the primary criterion of Yacht Rock. But I think this song more crosses from the shallows of soft rock to the cresting majesty of Yacht Rock. This is definitely bouncy enough for Hoe Snow. Very smooth, a little folky, a little jazzy. It's got that Hoe Snow snap.
From Andycanuck: Hezballah members reporting for work today, a little bit skittish about entering the code on an electronic keypad lock
I don't know if this is real. It's certainly accurate -- no one in Hezballah is happy to be handling any kind of electronic device today.
FAA fines SpaceX $633K for acting without its permission "These fines therefore are simply because FAA management has hurt feelings because SpaceX wouldn't wait for it to twiddle its thumbs for a few more weeks. The fines also suggest that FAA management is either being pressured to hinder SpaceX's commercial operations by higher ups in the White House, or that management itself is trying to exert more power over the company, for apparently very petty reasons."

The FBI investigated whether Trump was a Russian agent based upon... nothing. Think they're investigating Walz, or nah?

New book edited by Michael Walsh and featuring essays by Glenn Reynolds, Kurt Schlichter, and others: Against the Corporate Media: Forty-Two Ways the Press Hates You
Michael Walsh asked me to contribute a chapter to this book. I bailed out when I couldn't find a new angle on topic. But Walsh found a bunch of writers who do have new things to say. I'll review the book soon. Definitely consider buying it.
Supposedly a Twitter account called "The Black Insurrectionist" has a signed affidavit from an anonymous ABC "News" staffer, alleging that Muir and Kamala's sorority sister exchanged questions behind the scenes. I don't know if this is true. He says he's keeping the name of the staffer anonymous, so there will be no way to verify it even if he publishes it. Shrug. It's not much but a claim.
