No, no, no. Don't play it like the Fonz. It's important when the Citizen's Media gets pumped and you don't need to don sackcloth and ashes for mentioning your mention.

Spreading the word is very, very important.

"sackcloth and ashes?" Is that a Jesus reference? Or an Oliver reference? Ha!

For the record, I was being a bit sarcastic. :-)

Lawks a mercy, Bill. I meant no disrepect to Oliver. Sackcloth and ashes was only one of the many ways our medieval ancesters used to mortify their flesh. You just leave that filthy practice off, y'hear. And keep on keeping on.

Err ... Bill, have I been to oblique? I'm on your side.

I usually just lock myself in a closet and go to town with chains and a whip, a la Arthur Dimmesdale.

(I know you're on my side, I'm kidding around)

I can't remember which of the two Piranha Brothers knew how to treat a lady right, but you are right up there in the correct brother's category.

I just LOVE the internet for these connect moments.

BTW, you will not win the "Best in DC" blogger category put out by the Washington Post because few are willing like me to submit to their registration ceremony.

You win it with people who are far brighter and better informed than the average WaPo moonbat.

So instead of a scarlet "A" do you wear a scarlet "B"? Seriously, you ought to feel good about the credit and put it out there. It just adds more credibility to the blogosphere and keeps us all motivated. And as you said, it was Brit Hume, after all. Congratulations.

hey, sounds like you could be a reporter....

If Brit Hume mentions my blog, I'm posting it.

Good job.

For the love of all that is holy, please link here...  if your blogroll isn't up-to-date by the next time you get mentioned on FNC, I'm going to have a frigging stroke!  Are you trying to kill me?  Let the Hamsterdance thing go already!

That was a travesty.

Congrate, Bill. I'm proud of you, pardner. [wipes tear from his eye]

Grrr..."Congrats."

Gotta get new glasses.

Aaaaaaayyyyy!

Actually, something the President said tonight reminded me of a Happy Days episode where Richie was wondering why nobody ever messed with the Fonz. And the Fonz told him it's because every one knew he would totally wipe the floor with his opponent. (I'm paraphrasing). Richie tried it, and the Fonz then informed him that in order for it to work you had to have actually done it at least once.

We're the Fonz. Iraq is that once. Libya saw the light, and backed off. If anything, we're stonger at home now, and more respected in the world after having gone after Iraq than we were last year, and definitely more than we were pre-Sept. 11th.

Patterico plays it like Potsie.

Sit on it!
