Frank Gets HIGH PRAISE! From Jeri Thompson

Wednesday, November 4th, 2009

After playing the Frank-inspired bumper music clip about what happens to the people who lose the support of Fred Thompson, Jeri Thompson had this to say:

Frank J’s Birthday

Thursday, June 4th, 2009

Frank J turns 30 today. Wonder how he’ll celebrate?

I speculate thusly:


“Obama just spoke without a teleprompter again! Free comedy gold!”

* Making a pilgrimmage to that new Reagan statue so he can lay a wreath at its feet made of commie scalps.

* Working on his own version of Riff Trax. The bad news is, the only line he can come up with is “I weel eet ur eyeballs and throw poo at u!!!”. The good news is that this actually works as a pretty good replacement for any line by Jar Jar Binks, so “Phantom Menace” is almost done.

* Giving up on dinosaurs armed with rocket launchers. Now working on rocket launchers that fire dinosaurs.

* Trying to warn Obama about the Dick Cheney Assassination Squad in order to save the nation from 7 years of “President Biden”

* Building up the callous on his trigger finger.

* Marking the 20th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre by flying to the Square and mooning every Chinese Army soldier he sees. Which is especially rude because Frank has an American flag tattooed on one cheek and the words “Commies Suck!” on the other.

* None of your damn business how I know that.

* Asking Stephen Crowder how he gets such bouncy, shiny, manageable hair.

* Re-reading Fun Facts About Idaho to see if there’s ANYTHING to do in that damn state that doesn’t involve potatoes.

* Figuring out a way to punch three hippies at once using only two fists that doesn’t involve being Fred Thompson.

* Same way he celebrates every birthday - seeking black-market fissionables while shaking his fist at a natural satellite.


Speculate on Frank’s activities or leave him a birthday message (or both) in the comments.

Capitalist Propaganda: Titles and Direct Links Added

Friday, May 22nd, 2009

Reader Tyo complained of being unable to view some of the embedded videos in the Capitalist Propaganda series, so I went back and added direct links.

I don’t know if the problem was on Tyo’s end or ours, but I do know that YouTube sometimes randomly disables embedding, so it never hurts to have direct links as a backup.

I also added the titles of the videos, so when Obb the Exalted orders them taken them down, you can search for them elsewhere.

Keep Dean Barnett in Your Prayers

Wednesday, October 8th, 2008

He’s in the hospital because of an attack of his cystic fibrosis. No one does a better humorous FAQ than Dean (you actually learn things from his, unlike mine).

Notes

Tuesday, September 30th, 2008

* If you can’t wait for Thursday for a Palin fix, Hugh Hewitt interviewed her today on his radio show.

* I have a chapter of Hellbender done, but forgot to put it up today so it will go up tomorrow.

* I’m cracking down on off topic trolls. I have to pay for this server space you know.

More Updates

Saturday, September 27th, 2008

There is now a comment preview button, a nice AJAXy one that doesn’t cause the page to reload. Also, the logo now links back to the main page (which was harder to figure out how to do than you’d think; thanks again to Basil).

BTW, so far I’m only sending trolls comments to spam if they are too off topic or comment way too much (one was commenting like ten times a post while writing like Scary Evil Monkey). Other than that, I’d like to keep the blog troll-friendly. It’s not like we’re having erudite discussions they’re interrupting.

Let’s Have Clean Mouths

Friday, September 26th, 2008

The trolls have been swearing a lot lately, so I’ve added a swear filter. If you swear, your comment goes into moderation. If I feel it wasn’t too vulgar, I’ll later approve it whenever I get to it.

That is all.

Because of the Financial Crisis, I Will Be Suspending Hellbender for the Rest of the Week

Thursday, September 25th, 2008

Okay, I wasn’t going to post one this week anyway, but here’s my biweekly reminder I’m still working on it. I’m still trying to decide whether I should post them as I write them or wait until I have a few parts done at least.

Anyway, so how are you guys? Don’t answer; I don’t really care.

oh noes!!111!! IMAO Under Attack!!!

Thursday, September 25th, 2008

I’m suddenly getting a tons of attempts at spam comments from multiple IPs in Chicago, IL. I guess we’ll see how well Wordpress handles that.

BTW, I missed the star rater right away, so I added another one of those. If you have some other Wordpress plugin suggestions, put them in the comments… unless you’re from Chicago. Then I won’t trust you.

This Is the New Blog

Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008

The old blog is here. It has been abandoned because it was cumbersome and clunky. This new blog is clunky in a less cumbersome way and should hopefully load faster and crash less.

I’m going to move some of the old posts here (and maybe eventually them all), but the old site is still searchable by the Google search bar somewhere on the left sidebar.

Thanks again to Basil for all his help.

That is all for now.

UPDATE:

Exporting from MT is not working so well. It starts with the oldest posts and puts them into a text file and falls apart well before it gets to modern day. So, if you want today’s posts, you still have to go here. Tomorrow’s posts and all those thereafter will be right here.

UPDATE 2:

I forgot to check what the blog looked like in IE and Chrome and realized some script was broken on the left sidebar. I think it’s fixed now.
