Meant to finish up “IMW: Aw, Hell” today, but it just ain’t happening. Well, it will keep me from struggling for a post for Monday. As I said numerous times so far, politics has just been boring lately. I guess, since I’ve been blogging, we’ve had the build up to war to fill up time during these political off years. Right now the issues are Social Security and filibusters, and I’m just not that much of a policy wonk to get worked up by that. I guess I could talk about the British elections, but that’s like me commenting on an alien craft.
A very boring alien craft.
Anyway, I am the undisputed overlord of the blogdodecahedron, so I say we look to the future. Right now, I’m finally getting a handle on cleaning up all the comment spam. Comments and trackbacks are now closed for any post older than 14 days, which stops new sludge from coming in. As for cleaning up my archives to free up disk space and to keep them looking like a cesspool, I’ve found that actually going into the SQL database (if you know what that is – I don’t) seems the best way to find the old spam and delete it in mass. Soon IMAO will be a streamlined humor machine.
Also, I’m finally rushing to finish the book of all the In My Worlds™ up until Bush’s second inauguration. There will be a bit of new content, but mainly it will be the hundreds of posts preserved as they were. I’m excited about getting IMAO into print, and you should be to. :: shakes fist ::
Secretly, in the background, we IMAO bloggers are working on even more exciting, crazy things. One day, IMAO will be so funny that the mere mention of the letter I, M, A, and O will cause you to wet your pants in a Pavlovian response. Yes, the secret plans are that good.
Of course, we’re (meaning not me but the others writing for IMAO) are interested in your feedback on what you like and what you think would make IMAO even better and superer. Please place any suggestions in the comments, but, for pete’s sake, don’t e-mail me. I like the Carnival of Comedy, myself, and will put an old, favorite post as my entry each week. And Aquaman will be returning in force, eventually (for anyone who cares).
Wish I could be more funny, but the muse just ain’t there today (it was practically knocking me to the ground and beating me with a trashcan yesterday). Maybe it will come later. Who knows. As always, keep revisiting IMAO for whenever my funny or the funny of others will appear.
Be honorable, ronin.

I enjoy much of your humor Frank J. (and the others too …) but I’m getting annoyed that the humor has become much dirtier than when I began reading …. whats with an angel shouting f***? (You did mean fine by that right? … but some people have dirty minds and might think differently …) š And Harvy has a penchent for the same and worse …
Seriously though, I can no longer recommend the site so enthusiasticly anymore ….

Evan is right I have had to wash my mouth out with soap, and for times when I read silently floss my mind, after reading new material.
Wait I take it all back; I’m a wicky-wacky adult and can handle seeing astericks.
Perhaps the Secretly Designed Irony (hereafter refered to as “SDI”) could be translated into both arabic and farsi, and read to the terrorists and insurgents to produce uncontrollable and deadly spams of laughter.
I seem to remember the Brits trying something like this during WWII, led by Colonel John Cleese. The jokes were translated into german one word at a time by different translators (so as to keep the translators from understanding the joke and accidentally killing theirselves). It was responsible for turning the tide at the Rhine.
Bush going to Russia to bitch slap Putin isn’t funny?
..I’m sorry, the ACLU tee shirt girl had me distracted.
Anyone have any milk?
“Superer?”
McWert stole my comment. Putin needs to be totally taken down (in a democratic kinda way). Dork.
Group blog ruined this site for me.
This is the first time I’ve been to the site in 4-5 weeks, and I used to visit multiple times every day.

And yet you returned. Protesteth too much lately?
Dear Frank J,
I think you are absolutely hilarious, keep up with the adult thing. In fact I think you are so funny I created a link to you in my new created blog (it is in French sadly…) so you can get to be known on the other side of the Atlantic… Not all of us a cheese eating surrending monkeys š
Seriously, tho. Do you have ACLU tee shirt babes phone number?
In my day, we got beaten by muses till the cows came home, and we said thank you.
I think you are a superiour artist and should do more cartoons of the hatefilled lefty getting killed. ALWAYS funny!
This site jumped the shark when SarahK moved in with you. You couldn’t find a nice girl in Florida?
