Freeper Sleuth "Buckhead" Celebrates Rather KnockoutBuckhead, of course, wrote that first post questioning the fonts and proportional spacing in Dan's Dodgy Documents. Oddly enough, the Atlanta-Journal Constitution seems to give the conservatives the last word in an article for once. (Is it a conservative tilting rag? I don't know. I assume it's not.) After noting that some people (ahem, liberals, ahem) like Ken Auletta still claim Dan Rather was some sort of journalistic Green Lantern, Buckhead & Co. get in last licks: But none of that mattered to the partygoers, including former Fulton County GOP Chairman Jack Winter and Fulton County Superior Court Judge Michael Johnson who munched hors d'oeuvres on napkins and paper plates decorated like the American flag. Again, Buckhead is called a blogger, which he's technically not. At some point we'll have to think of the right term for Buckhead and other non-blogging contributors to forums and blogs. Not technically bloggers, but part of the same army and same movement, obviously. I'm always straining my way around this currently-uncoined-word myself. Plus... Iowahawk pens his last Dan Rather, Investigator mystery: strode past the security desk, but Fremont grabbed my arm, roughly. "Sorry Mister Rather, authorized personnel only." And... Trey Jackson has video of this gasbag saying goodbye-- finally. But I like the original script for last night's farewell better, somehow obtained by "Rick": [stage direction] Pan Camera One to close up as I remove my glasses. [teleprompter script] [stage direction] Camera One fade to black Classy. That's the way I'd go out. posted by Ace at 02:46 AM
CommentsLOL...I guess, as far as uncoined words go, we've just taken "Hybrid Children" off the table. :) Posted by: Jack M. on March 10, 2005 02:56 AM
Buckhead and other political forum posters are the precursor to bloggers. Correctly stated, bloggers are an extension of that. Posted by: thoughtomator on March 10, 2005 04:00 AM

PC mania: Off topic but I thought you might find it interesting. PM: IKEA manuals 'show sex bias' OSLO, Norway (Reuters) -- Swedish home furnishings giant IKEA is guilty of sex discrimination by showing only men putting together furniture in its instruction manuals, Norway's prime minister says. IKEA, which has more than 200 stores in 32 nations, fears it might offend Muslims by depicting women assembling everything from cupboards to beds.

Ace, I live here in Georgia and the AJC is in no way a conservative-leaning rag. The editorial board is leftist and they feature Molly Ivins, Maureen Dowd, and Thomas Friedman on a regular basis. They have their token conservative-Jim Wooten. I finally let my subscription run out and won't resubscribe, not because they are liberal, but because on both the editorial page and in the featured articles, they have become predictable and boring-Racism, homophobia and George W. Bush's incompetance are the cause of all the world's ills Posted by: Peggy on March 10, 2005 09:10 AM

I think the clinical term for people who are accessories to blogging is "co-dependents." Posted by: Guy T. on March 10, 2005 11:58 AM
Buckhead is clearly an "uberposter". Frequent posters of comments could be "blog regulars", "blog irregulars", or perhaps "blogulars". As for the rest of us, we are but kibitzers and commenters. Posted by: Maureen on March 10, 2005 12:42 PM

Which character was "Ahab" in Star Trek II? Was he the young guy? Or the black guy who got the "creatures in his ears"? Posted by: ace on March 10, 2005 01:59 PM
He was the lower-ranking black swahili-talking dude who was romancing Uhura in the hallway that time who got killed by the salt-sucking monster. You're welcome. Posted by: lauraw on March 10, 2005 02:25 PM
OH, Star Trek II....I am so bad at this. Posted by: lauraw on March 10, 2005 02:27 PM
not a troll, obviously, how 'bout a "NPC"? with a combined INT plus WIS of at least 30, a "NPC-sage." INT plus WIS between 20 and 30, a "NPC-commoner." INT plus WIS less than 20, a "NPC-troll." Posted by: jb on March 10, 2005 03:18 PM
lauraw, /begin nerd trekkie voice "You are WRONG, laura. The black man in the hallway was a mental projection of Uhura's desires, extracted from her mind by the telepathic salt creature, and projected onto the salt creature's body. Uhura saw what she wanted to see, not an actual member of the crew. That is why she said, at the time "Crewman, I don't remember ever seeing you before." You, laura are hoplessly inept at star trek geekery." /nerdy trekkie voice.

In the Bloggernacle (the Mormon Blogosphere) participants are generally called 'bloggern', whether they blog themselves or just comment. Also 'bloggernackers,' but that wouldn't work as a general term while 'bloggern' would. Posted by: Adam Greenwood on March 11, 2005 08:34 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.
