Jessica "Whoreblogging" Cutler Makes Cover of USAToday

Am I jealous? Oh, of course not. (See changing pictures in upper right corner of front page.)

How stupid is the opening of this story?

Conventional wisdom would seem to suggest that bloggers — people who post personal stories and fiction on their Internet Web logs — would turn up their noses at the brick-and-mortar world of book publishing.

Riiiiiight. Because we're all so filled with "blogging integrity" that we would never, you know, stoop to actually making money off a book nor enjoying the prestige that comes from having written something that actually gets typeset onto real paper.

So much for conventional wisdom. From Washington tell-alls to people on the front lines of Iraq, bloggers are jumping on the publishing bandwagon in a trend that industry insiders say benefits both writers and publishers.

What a shock. I think this was "conventional wisdom" in the same sense that my hanging out with a friend all day yesterday was a "man-date."

But the story just keeps getting more and more interesting:

"Anything that helps someone who is writing come to the attention of the public is going to help them on their road to being published," says Robert Miller...

Mr. Miller also claimed that, counterintuitively enough, being superhot, superfamous, or superhot AND superfamous could "really help launch a title." He then dropped some further Zen wisdom on this reporter, noting, for example, that "glass is nice and shiny, but I wouldn't want to eat it."

The article signs-off with a big "Eff You" by listing bloggers with book deals... the name "Ace of Spades" does not appear to be on the list.

Uccchhhhh. Take my life, please.

Saw Washingtonienne's little pic on the way to work this morning, and startled a few people with my disgusted snort. I might have gotten more worked up, but then I got distracted by that brightly colored pie chart further down the page and... well, like most people, that's as much of USA Today as I read.

It ill becomes you to gripe about Cutler's success, Ace. If you had the cojones, you could get a book deal the same way she did, by sharing some of the gritty details of these "man-dates" of yours. Inquiring minds want to know.

Ace-- another O/T, but hey, some nice warporn.

Laser fun here.

I saw it in The Corner, so they deserve the hat tip.

Cheers,

WHOA! WAVE OFF, RED LEADER! BOLTER, BOLTER!!!

That warporn story is OLD. Do not link that.

Let me find you some nice new laser stuff to please you.

Cheers,
Dave at Garfield Ridge

Since this is sort of on-topic (given we are talking about Cutler) I found something better than war porn this morning. In fact, I'm a little surprised Dave didn't scoop the whole 'sphere with this story.

Three words: ROBOT. SEX. DOLLS.

Of course, Rightwingsparkle doesn't know I used her photos in commenting on the story, so let's keep that between us. OK?

Posted by: Jack M. on April 18, 2005 12:21 PM

Dave, you little bastard, I was just about to link an Oct 2003 story.

Setting me up, now?

ACE...her first name is "Jessica".

Okay... maybe having an editor would actually help out.

Then again, I've got you people. As persnickety a bunch of pedantic martinets as one is likely to find.

USAToday, aka McPaper, can pimp for the whore Cutler, two chicks having trouble with body image, and a divorcee working her way through the ambulatory male population of NYC, but can't mention books out by Bill Whittle or Scrappleface.

Ace: you had a mad date yesterday? Did he put out at the end of the date?

Shouldn't her name really be YESsica?

Posted by: tinkerbelle on April 18, 2005 12:31 PM

C'mon, Ace-- would I ever shiv a friend in the kidney like that? Especially after all that time in 1969 we spent back in the shit?

Fuckin' A Shau. . . it changes a man.

Cheers,

That should read MAN date. You don't have any editing features on this blog - UGH!

Posted by: tinkerbelle on April 18, 2005 12:41 PM

Superhot? Her?

Ummm...afraid I've got to disagree with you on that one.

oh I don't know, in the league of transgendered folks that have had acid thrown in their faces, she's quite a tasty little number.

Posted by: DelphiGuy on April 18, 2005 02:19 PM

DelphiGuy,

was it acid? I thought she'd been bobbing for French fries.

Posted by: OCBill on April 18, 2005 02:28 PM

Cutler, for all her faults, is hot. The usa today shots freakify her somehow.

In response to someone asking why the video tape doesn't show Tyler Robinson's face (PS, it does, but it's crappy video so it's blurry):

Candace Owens
@RealCandaceO

Because as I demonstrated on my show, there were MANY young men that all woke up and decided to dress in Maroon shirts and light shorts on the day of the Charlie's assassination.

The footage can be any one of these young men and in my opinion is likely multiple of them.

If Tyler Robinson's defense would like to contact me-- I'd be happy to supply them the folder of the maroon boys that I began archiving when I noticed the bizarre fashion trend.

I have thus far ID'd two of them, but will focus on IDing the rest of them when I am back on air.

I have maintained that the Feds had multiple decoy maroon boys on the ground that day. Without a clear image, they certainly cannot declare it is Tyler Robinson which is why all the Zionist influencers are hoping they can simply hypnotize the public into trusting blurry images and videos.

For such an "open and shut case" they have thus far provided ZERO evidence of anything outside of a criminal government conspiracy, the likes of which hasn't been seen since the JFK assassination.

@BlakeSNeff

BREAKING: Lance Twiggs says that Robinson admitted to him in-person on Sept. 11 that the message he had sent the night before (presumably, messages sent while he was trying to retrieve his rifle the night of Sept 10) was true. He says Robinson told him "He wishes he hadn't done it."

Fenix Ammunition
@FenixAmmunition

Photos of the ammunition recovered from Tyler Robinson.

Remington headstamp on the case and despite the somewhat low resolution on the photo you can see the somewhat blunted nature of the projectile's tip.

This is a Remington Cor-Lokt soft point round. It's SPECIFICALLY designed to deform, slow down, and prevent an exit wound. Available at literally every single gun store and sporting goods store that sells ammunition.

In fact, 16 out of the 17 .30-06 varieties manufactured by Remington use some type of expanding, deforming, or fragmenting bullet. Only ONE of their products uses a full metal jacket projectile that could/would be expected to leave an exit wound.

Here's a clip of them sitting in my desk.

This has been the most easily debunked claim of their entire web of lies and it's really mind blowing considering this is exactly what you would choose for an assassination.

But yeah, definitely keep getting all your information from the DEI hire and the Portland pizza boy. I'm sure they know more about this than I do.

Post here, showing Tyler Robinson's ammunition, matching this guy's own box. And it is an expanding-tip hollow-point round.

Boy these Internet Experts (TM) sure do get a lot of things wrong.

Lost 70s Mystery Click
And a song with another song as an intro, too:
Be it sight, sound, smell, or touch
There's something
Inside that we need so much
The sight of a touch, or the scent of a sound
Or the strength of an oak with roots deep in the ground
The wonder of flowers to be covered and then to burst up
Thru tarmac, to the sun again
Boy do they look like absolute dorks.

And come what may
Gonna dance the day away

She always smiled for the people she'd meet
On trouble and strife
She had another way of looking at life
