Thanks, Frank! It's about time these wars were conducted in a civilized manner....

Frank, you may have misunderstood my terms. I will accept either one of those three things happening, not all three.

So, pick one:

*Surrender to GR
*GR links to the real Glenn
*We join forces

I'm happy to join forces :-) I extend my ashy negro hand in peace :-)

This isn't how you wage a blog war.

From reading your blog, its obvious to me that the first salvo should have been an increase in not-linking to this Glenn fellow.

He should then have counter attacked with filthy lies, and eventually try to turn a search engine against you.

Frank should then respond with another furious round of not linking, or maybe a counter attack by a blog not directly affiliated with you.

You certainly don't demand that they surrender, while agreeing to their terms.

We here in the audience want this to be a protracted, bloody affair with lots of sniping and hilarious personal attacks.

Is that too much to ask?

OK well I'm far too lazy to look for your email address and write you, so here's my formal declaration of war. I, The Michigander, declare "WAR!!!" on... hmm, let's see, ah yes Collinization. (I thought we were already at war but it wasn't Frank J. approved so apparently it was just a police action like that thing in Vietnam or whatever.

I don't know about all this "email Frank for formal war announcement" stuff. It sounds too "UN"-y for my tastes. The only REAL way to declare war is with a massive pre-emptive strike against your enemies. And sending warning of your pending pre-emptive strike is something out of a French army regulation.
Since we all know Frank would NEVER do anything UN-y or French like this is obviously some sort of trick. Those missing lab monkeys must have made their move.

Through a mutual protection pact signed with John Collins I am contractually obligated to declare war on Tim :-)

Ok...first of all...Tim the Michigander already talked me into going into a Blogwar against John Collins and then he didn't provide air support so under no circumstances should anyone ally with that Frenchie.
Susie on the other hand...she is my arch-nemisis. She will lose. Blogwar '03 will be a total blow out!

Glenn,
This confusion could have been avoided if we had a formal way to declare war. I'll give my answer to your offer in the next war update.

Imperial Secretary, the School of Law of the Crusader War Collge, recently appointed the Imperial War Collge by our Beloved Emperor, wishes to voice an opinion as to the extent of your mandate, and register some suggestions for the conventions of war.

May it prosper the Empire that protects us.

Impeachment by lawsuit? That's a new one.

Very informed and interesting comments! Greetings from Hadealer team

I just heard that DVDBarn.com is opening up 30 more warehouses nationwide on Monday the 20th of Sept. Looks like they got some bigtime funding and are going head-to-head with Netflix. They also sent me an email with a promotion code that is supposed to give me a 3 out at a time plan for only $12.95 per month and apparently it is not just a promotional deal. They say if I signup I'll get grandfathered at that rate.

The code for that plan is dvd-4me if anybody wants it
