History of the Alliance
Posted by Frank J. at 02:36 PM | View blog reactions | Comments (28)

Forgot to link to this. I started the Alliance up, but it certainly went on well without me.

"Give a man a fish, and you'll feed him for a day. Teach a man to make fun of the puppy blender, and he'll be entertaining for life."

who cares if you're first?

LOL

I kinda like the variation (not original to me): Give a man a fish, and you'll feed him for a day. Set him on fire and he's warm for the rest of his life.

you can lead a horse to water, but if you can get him to do the backstroke, then thats something.

When life gives you lemons, squeeze lemon juice in other people's eyes until you feel better.

When life gives you hippies, squeeze lemon juice and spray mace in their eyes until they run away.

It's official, according to Glenn Reynold's I am the Brian of the Bloggers.

I can prove it I have his fake quote and everything.

I am now an Alliance member.
I had to jump through all the hoops, and some of them were lined with razors and flames..

Stop by so I can be a bigger mammal.

#8 - Posted by: Joshua on August 17, 2004 04:49 PM

Well then I'll be the Biggus Dickus of the Bloggers, if I ever get a blog.

Always look on the bright side of life, Joshua

Off topic...
this is just funny stuff.
I linked to this article from Drudge.

Tom talks frankly for the first time about why Scientology is "the shi[znit], man"

#10 - Posted by: Joshua on August 17, 2004 05:20 PM

Give a man a fish and you'll feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish and he'll steal your fishing spot.

#11 - Posted by: LC Trucido on August 17, 2004 06:01 PM

Hey, I know hippies were totally off politically, but their music rocked.

Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day. Unless he's a vegetarian.

#12 - Posted by: Jen on August 17, 2004 06:11 PM

Sarahk needs to fabricate stories for her web site. Her day to day blog'en is turning out to be a real snooze. Doesn't she ever go to the range? Or a meat market or a casino. How about the beach? It's summer time

Hey, I need more glue. This one is all sniffed out.

#13 - Posted by: on August 17, 2004 06:20 PM

Give a man a rifle and he'll shoot a deer, a hippie, or a cow.

Teach a man to shoot and he'll set up an L-shaped, high body count ambush!

anonymous, no one says you have to read it. and you can say that at my place so that only 200-400 people see you hurting my feelings for absolutely no freaking reason at all other than to just be ugly.

#16 - Posted by: sarahk on August 17, 2004 07:32 PM

Look, you hurt sarahk's feelings. Keep one eye open when you sleep tonight; Frank is very protective.

#17 - Posted by: Jen on August 17, 2004 07:47 PM

Anonymous is a dork. Sarahk's blog is the shiznit! (I'm saying that, assuming that that is a really good thing!). I practically live there!

What's the punks ISP!!

Come out little pus...I mean chicken...

#19 - Posted by: Joshua on August 17, 2004 07:53 PM

What's the punks ISP!!??

Not that I know what to do with it once I have it but I can pass it onto people who know what nastiness can be wreaked.

#20 - Posted by: Joshua on August 17, 2004 08:00 PM

Always stay up wind of the fire, SarahK. No matter how pretty it looks.

Jack.

I don't allow it to be taken back!!

You will die a slow painful agonizing computer meltdown!!!

I finally figured out how to post...I was thinking there was some kind of complicated registration process (hey I'm in Oregon and surrounded by socialists, paper for paperwork's sake gets ingrained), we'll see if this works. I had yet to learn the miracle of "scrolling down" all the way to the button of the page, thought I had to log in first. If Frank got my earlier email (I hope you didn't actually, it was really, really blond of me), I think we can both look back on this and laaaaaaaaaugh. Humble request for IMW: Why isn't the moon a Death Star (TM) yet? Despite it being nuked, Condi needs to make it into an American Death Star! Have fun next week in Aridzone, as an army buddy of mine calls it:).

Also, have you considered a theme song for IMAO? I feel everyone needs a theme song, or at least an organizational one. The Imperial March is probably taken by the "nice doggies", but I was thinking something like the main theme from "The Man with the Golden Arm", maybe "Horshell Common/The Heat Ray" from the old Jeff Wayne War of the World's musical (yes, musical-I have WAY too much spare time). The Poliburo Diktat needs to pull a deal with After the Fire, otherwise I'd recommend "Der Kommissar" for pure irony sake. Jackie Gleason is good too, though. Maybe that "Orc Song" from the old Return of the King Hobbit CARTOON (not the film) (those who know it from the 70's, you know what one I mean:D)

#25 - Posted by: LokiVonBismark on August 18, 2004 03:40 AM

Actually, I wasn't thinking. The Richard Cheese (think Dawn of the Dead, the new one) version of "Down with Sickness". DEFINITELY Richard Cheese as the official composer of IMAO.

#26 - Posted by: LokiVonBismark on August 18, 2004 03:49 AM

Now that the comment thread has NOTHING to do with the post topic anymore...

Thanks for the linkage :-)

#27 - Posted by: Harvey on August 18, 2004 08:15 AM

Getting back (sort of) on topic, I actually heard a puppy blender reference on Hannity's radio show a couple days ago. Hannity was talking about some article, and trying to remember it. After a few seconds, he said in a softer voice, "I think it was from Instapundit-dot-com".
