There is a new secret message in the Links of the Day for today, and the first one to e-mail it to me gets to be declared super-smart.
There are also bonus points for finding the secret message I put in the Links of the Day during the past week.
Super-smart for last week: Scott Wright for being the first to e-mail me the secret message and Alan S. from Albuquerque for being the first to find the elegant solution to the puzzle.
Everyone bow before their supersmartness!
Here is the solution:

Links of the Day
I noticed `an .friend of Geeks with Guns has returned.One of the reasons I am rea.d is ‘from his early support of my site. So go ,give h.im a hit for me.
Not all of the French are against us, and Amphitryon has followed the war with great interest, colllecting news stories and pictures of America’s and the allies’ victtory. Here are more pictures.
Elliot Temple did not like that I compared a chimpanzee to a six-year-old. I know some people are offended by people looking down on a child, but, I’m sorry, kids are dumb. Not to offend any children who read my website, though, because you are going to grow out of it (well, most will). Sorry, but Frank always says the truth; he isn’t going to fib– Oh! Nachos! I’m going to go eat now. The thrilling conclusion to The “Attack of the Belgians” will appear tomorrow morning.
Filthy Lies: Stephen Green
It’s Sunday, which means it’s time to tell filthy lies about Stephen Green.
Just look at his blogroll! There’s like every damn blog in the blogosphere on there, but which one is conspicuously missing? So blatantly missing that it’s almost a statement of, “Hey, look at me! I didn’t link to this guy!” That’s right; IMAO. It’s just like that scene in Austin Powers 3 where Dr. Evil said, “Everyone leave the room except for…” and then named everybody except for Mini-Me. I think he made his whole blogroll as an affront to me. Well, I won’t stand idly by! Time for lies!
I saw Stephen Green in the bar area of a restaurant, so I walked up and said, “Hey, it’s Stephen Green, famous blogger! I’d like to buy you a drink.”
“Thanks,” he responded.
Then the waitress came by, so I told her, “I’ll have a double whiskey with a beer chaser, and Stephen Green will have…”
“A Shirley Temple,” he said, to my surprise.
“What?” I exclaimed, “Wouldn’t you want vodka?”
“Oh,” he chuckled, “That’s just for fun on my website; I don’t actually drink any alcoholic beverages. Alcohol tastes awful; bleh!”
“Are you joking?” I asked, quite befuddled.
“And alcohol makes you do crazy things, so be careful. That’s why I sometimes suddenly disappear from blogging for short periods; it’s so I can give lectures on the dangers of alcohol.”
“You sicken me,” I shot back at him and left the bar to drink whiskey at home.
And here is horribly photoshopped evidence that doesn’t prove anything:
So there is your lie: Stephen Green hates alcoholic beverages! Tell all the other bloggers! Tell the Russians! Tell Absolut!
That will teach him for singling me out for non-linkage.
