A little light housekeeping

I got nothin’ today, so how’s about a little housekeeping?

I was once a very conscientious little weasel. I scanned my logs and followed up people who linked to me. I checked out the blogs of my commenters. I read my way down my blogroll religiously. Now I no longer sit behind a desk eight to ten hours a day, surfing the ‘tubes and siphoning away precious resources from my employer, I am not nearly so well read.

Pity. I enjoyed you people.

Anyhow, there are some new commenters since the last time I updated my (pain-in-the-ass to update) blogroll. To reiterate the standing offer — anybody wants a link, just say the word. Here or in email or whatever. You don’t have to be a regular or anything. As long as your blog isn’t a grossly obvious topical mismatch, I will
give you that sweet, sweet linkage.

That’s just the kind of craven suckup I am.

Let me know if you consider Ace your blogfather. It’ll determine whether you go on the left sidebar or the right.

Yeah. I gots the OCD bad.

Well, if you do feel the need, I wouldn’t mind some reciprocation. My co-blogger Peiper lives “just down the road” from Badger Hall, over in Littleton by Winchester. So you’re nearly neighbors already. But he hardly ever blogs about sheep or strawberries. Or onions. It’s always politics, more politics, and those darned Travelers.

Ace is not my blogfather.

I should update my blogroll too. It’s woefully out of date.

Blog Roll, is that some new kind of sushi?

I’ve often thought about doing a blog, but I have demurred due to the fact I am contantly trying to prevent people from knowing how crazy I actually am.

She was the very model of a modern Weasel-Bloggeral
She’d information vegetable, animal, and venereal
She knew the queens and freaks of England, and could quote the spats historical
From Elton John to Amy
Winehouse in order categorical

She was very well acquainted, too, with matters mathematical and
Understood equations, both the simple and quadratical
About Obamessanic decline she was teeming with a lot o’ plans
With many cheerful facts about the gun-carrying Republicans

With many cheerful facts about gun-carrying Republicans
With many cheerful facts about gun-carrying Republicans
With many cheerful facts about gun-shooting Republicans

She was very good at integral and differential calculus
She knew the scientific names of beings animalculous
In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and political
She was the very model of a modern Weasel-Bloggeral

In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and political
She was the very model of a modern Weasel-Bloggeral

She can tell Whigs from Tories and still remembers Tony Blair
And other British matters about which most Avalonian’s don’t even care
She kens English food even though it’s not fine cuisine
And so she can offer prizes to her minions of Heinz Bangers ‘n’ Beanz

So she can offer prizes to her minions of fine Heinz Bangers ‘n’ Beanz
So she can offer prizes to her minions of fine Heinz Bangers ‘n’ Beanz
So she can mail illegal packages to her minions of fine Heinz Bangers ‘n’ Beanz

She knows what is meant by words like “quaalude” and “ritalin”
And she can tell at sight the vodka martini from one made with gin
At such affairs as shindigs and soirees she’s without a care
And more relaxed than Paris Hilton in her underwear

She’s more relaxed than Paris Hilton in her underwear
She’s more relaxed than Paris Hilton in her underwear
She’s more relaxed than Paris Hilton with no underwear

But this year’s English summer has been very warm and sunnery
And though her motives have been purer than a novice in a nunnery
Despite her bloggerific knowledge, and though she’s plucky and adventury
Her clever biting wit has lately gotten sort of dentury.

Her clever biting wit has lately gotten sort of dentury.
Her clever biting wit has lately gotten sort of dentury.
Her clever biting wit has lately gotten sort of last century.

Meeeeee!

I wouldn’t say Ace is my “blogfather” per-se, but I do find them very inspiring. Plus, I’m a moron.

Weasel – FYI – The link you have to The Hostages on your blog roll is dead. We have moved to:

Ohhhhh…see? That’s how far behind I’ve gotten in my blogreading.

Thank you. Fixed.

Wal, I come by way of Instapundit and Bill Quick. But it you have to blame somebody for finally getting me started, try Pixy Misa… was one of his mee.nu beta testers.

(BTW, your link hides in my sidebar as “Mustela Mumblings”.)


Comment from S. Weasel
Time: September 11, 2009, 8:19 pm

Into the lefthand sidebar with you, Sir!

I almost took Pixy up on it when he opened up mee.nu registrations, but I had JUST registered a domain name and prepaid for a couple of years.

I would be honored to be placed on either side…..but since my fledgling blog was born via Mr. Brutally Honest…

Yes ma’am.
http://www.brutallyhonest.org/brutally_honest/

After opining ad nauseum on his blog’s comments, someone “suggested” I start my own blog. I think they were trying to tell me to shut up! Heh….that didn’t work so good for them! The rest as they say is history.

Oh. Oh dear, Shifty. Why don’t you start your own blog. Burrrrrrn.

Have a sidebar link, little buckaroo.

Ummmm… Ms. Weasel? There’s one too many h’s in the http on my link. Could you fix it pleeeeze?

Also, how do I get that blogroll for my blog?

Thank you in advance,

Oops! Fixed.

Dude, if you keep clicking your own link, you’ll go blind…

There’s more than one version of the Moronosphere blogroll, but you can snag my version here.

Yeah well, I kinda poisioned my wife with my experimental forays into chinese breakfast cooking. Poor thing.

I’ve got alot of time on my hands this weekend.

A little late to this party, I’m afraid, but forgive me; I’m new at this. Haven’t had the Weasel Experience before, but it goes in the list.

You shouldn’t have too much trouble with topical mismatch, since I’m not particularly topical, or at least not topic-of-the-day oriented, but I definitely belong on the Right.

Regards,
Ric

I’ll never turn down a free spot on a blogroll.

Write a comment

(as if I cared)

(yeah. I'm going to write)

(oooo! you have a website?)


Beware: more than one link in a comment is apt to earn you a trip to the spam filter, where you will remain -- cold, frightened and alone -- until I remember to clean the trap. But, hey, without Akismet, we'd be up to our asses in...well, ass porn, mostly.
