Bill Whittle is back to blogging, having posted twice in less than a week. He promises to post more and has even reopened comments. Also, he has a new version of his book and a Latin motto to vote on. If you’ve never read Eject! Eject! Eject!, you are stupid and should go there and be not stupid.
The big news is he has apparently trekked far into the Himalayas and found reclusive former blogger Rachel Lucas and convinced her to return to society. Some of you may be too young to remember her, but she was one of the first bloggers I read and also made the original IMAO logo for me. After this long away, her rant could be deadly.
Nifty site. Adding it to my repitoire.
Danke Frank.
Yay Rachel! Reminds me of when my blog reading consisted soley of you(the single years), Instapundit, Rachel Lucas, and Kim Du Toit. Quite the crowd. Ah, Memories!
Okay, okay. I’ll go Whittle’s site to un-stupefy myself. hangs head in shame
Whittle AND Rachel Lucas back at the same time? I wonder which one of these pills I should take… What color is Digitalis?
Bill speakum wisdom:
“This is not going to become a group blog! Unless started that way intentionally I find they tend to lose all focus.” (emphasis mine.)
Ahem. cough.
Ahem, “cough”, ummm Beo, third rule of Fight Club: Wisdom never beats funny.
This is going right into my list of daily reading.
Sweet! Bill and Rachel in the same week, and not a minute too soon!
I stole part of your post. Just thought it would be polite to let you know. Properly attributed and linked, of course.
And thanks for the heads-up.
Frank! How YOU doin’??
Yes it’s true, the Whitler did convince me, but I wasn’t in the Himalayas, I was in the mountains of Pakistan torturing bin Laden. Super-secret, don’t tell anyone.
🙂 I’ve missed you guys! Tell Sarah hi! I live for that girl’s American Idol recaps.
Ahh… you beat me to the notification. Yes Bill is an amazing read. I ‘drive-by’ weekly to look for more.
Rachel, hey! So nice to see you back! Ok, I was gonna try to be cool, like, “Oh, yeah, I’m gonna read what you write, too… maybe, you know… if I have time.” But honestly, when Frank read me that comment aloud, I raised my arms triumphantly in the air and said, “I’m so awesome! Rachel Lucas lives for my AI recaps! I don’t hate her for how much everyone worships her anymore because she lives for my AI recaps!”
Not that I have an inferiority complex or secretly fear that I’ll be forgotten now that you’re back or anything.
Sarah, woman you are insane if you think anyone would forget you. If you want to know the truth, sometimes I read your posts for the simple purpose of figuring out how you are so funny so I can copy you. There is something about how you put words together that just makes me happy.
Someone owes Frank a whack on the noggin for misspelling the name of Whittle!, scourge of idiocy and bringer of hope.
Thompson/Whittle ’08!
