Another moment of unabashed pragmatism

This post could have been a lot longer.  But it’s not like there’s a law or anything.

    If there were a law, I think you’d get a short sentence.

  2. Lew Clark says:

    I liked it.  Good beat.  I can dance to it.  I give it a 7.

  3. But it’s not like there’s a law or anything.

    just you wait. the Dems are gonna fix that little oversight.

    I demand Congressional Hearings on the lack of post length…STAT!

    Sorry to go OT, but it’s that time again.  Time for this drunk to go on a liquor run.  My two identified targets are as follows:  Ardbeg 10 or Highland Park 12.  I am leaning towards the Ardbeg as I need to try an Isla.  I need me some peat.  I have already purchased two highlanders (speysiders to be more precise), but have heard wonderful things about the Highland Park.  As usual, in the end I make my own decision, but suggestions from Jeff and the PW crew are always appreciated. 

    As for the topic, I heard it isn’t the size of the post that matters, but the content.  Personally that sounds like bullshit to me, but hey it is what it is.

    I hear it isn’t the length of the post, it’s the diameter..

    It may not be very big around, but it sure is short!

  8. McGehee says:

    Most people post blog entries. Today, Jeff is filing briefs.

  9. Cythen says:

    Yet.  There isn’t a law… yet.

  10. B Moe says:

    I don’t really care much, I am just trying to remember if it is my day to be a homicidal, gun-toting lunatic, or if I am supposed to piss myself thinking about terrorists today.

    This neocon shit ain’t easy.

    It’s the Little Bear post. If you’ve got a problem with it, get your own blog, Goldilocks.

  12. Great Mencken's Ghost! says:

    jeff has figured out that he can use this ploy to turn one regular Jeff Goldstein post into 1,257 posts…

  13. McGehee says:

    As long as he can make it up in volume.

  14. Great Mencken's Ghost! says:

    McGehee—WELL HE COULD TYPE ALL IN CAPS AND BOLD IT! Is that what you meant?

  15. McGehee says:

    <fingers in ears>

    NO, BUT IT WOULD DO.

  16. Austin Mike says:

    When the law (or lack thereof) is invoked as an authoritarian substitute for true pragmatism, as is the case here, is that being pragmatic or is that being, well, funny.

    To explain a pragmatically short post, I’d have gone with, “You are not the boss of me.” Or perhaps the classic, “Nyahh, Nyahh, Nyahh.  I can do whatever I want.”

  17. Austin Mike says:

    If, like, I had a blog, and was, like, posting on it. Neither of which I have or am. Speaking pragmatically.

    McGeHee,

    How do you type with your fingers in your ears?

    Unless they’re someone else’s fingers, but that’s just creepy
