Still feeling under the weather, so blogging (like eating) will be light today. I’m thinking about bringing in a ProxyBlogga® to do some posting for me (jes’ like that li’l Linse-seed everyone is clamoring over), but I haven’t hit on anyone just yet.
Meantime, here’s the second round of Blogdom sniper fire (once again, after Jim Treacher’s edgy “Clip-Art Nonsense“)…

[Glenn Reynolds responds to volley one: “Protein who? Listen, I don’t have time for this bullshit. I’ve got things I need to be doing. I’m a law professor, for Chrissakes! I make cutting-edge techno music and write articles for FOX and Tech Central! And lately, I’ve got Stephen Fricking Green breathing down my neck. You want me to mention your site? Fine. Get yourself a coupla’ busty chicks who are willing to flash cleavage and make a few racy, sexual overtures to the whole of Blogdom — all while intelligently discussing precision bombing campaigns or Gitmo hunger strikes. Nothin’ gets me hotter’n busty, brainy, bellicose warbabes! (Well, nothin’ exceptin’ people who use the phrase ‘gun show loophole’ as if it were a bad thing). Got it? No offense, but I’m a busy man. Busty chicks! Busty chicks, busty chicks, busty chicks! That’ll perk me up. Hell, I’ve mentioned the Unablogger, like, fifteen times, and all he does (bless him!) is post cheesecake! Christ, get a clue, why doncha! Ya’ little whiner…“
protein wisdom’s rejoinder: the chicks writing for us have expressed disdain for such crass objectification (besides, they’re each flatter than Kansas after a fresh harvest); but I’m not averse to showing a li’l something. It ain’t much, what I’m sportin’ — but I’m told it photographs well…]
[update: for those of you visiting this link from the Instapundit site, make sure you view the first panel of the Blogwars cartoon, so you’ll have some idea what all the breadstick fuss is about… The third panel can be found here.]
Uh oh! I sent an email to Professor Reynolds about your last cartoon, but I didn’t mention this new one to him. Tee Hee!
M.I.
Reynolds runs a great site, as do Layne and Welch, as do you guys. But that doesn’t mean you all need to be strung together like some giant warblogging marrionette, does it? Well, maybe it’s just your fever talking.
On the positive side:
“I’m a <i>law</i> professor, for Chrissakes!”—nice touch!
Well, this ought to catch his attention!
I have only been mentioned twice on Reynolds site, and trust me, after you have been mentioned the longing for another mention is even worse than before it happens…
Too bad Prof. Reynolds doesn’t allow comments. In theory, one could just post a link in the middle of a comment for no reason–
<a href=”http://kinen.blogspot.com”>Glenn Kinen</a>
and get a few hits. I think.
Are you happy you got your hit?
We need some competition for Glenn’s power. There needs to be another site that if you suck up to will get your blog massive amounts of hits.
A blogger who says he does not want people to read his blog is the same as a rock star who didn’t want the fame and the money: full of shit!

Whoa, Andrew, you scared the living fudge out of me; I’ve got the same moniker as the InstaPundit, but not an ounce of his power.
But I promise if I ever rule the blogosphere, I’ll give you, and maybe even Jeff, a few islands.
Mr. Kinen! <i>Maybe</i> even me? Hell, I’d make one fine inter-ocean alderman, I can assure you!
Well done, my friend.
