Can you believe it? It was fifteen years ago this week that the blog Harvey & Friends (also known as IMAO) was started. I thought it would be neat to look at a timeline of all the important events in IMAO history.
A TIMELINE OF IMAO
2002 – Noticing a dearth of political opinions online, Frank J. started a blog on blogspot and named it IMAO for reasons long forgotten. Frank J. soon posted the treatise “Nuke the Moon” which many say led directly to the Iraq war, causing him to be considered a war criminal in many circles.
2003 – Frank J. wins the Pulitzer for his expose on blogger Glenn Reynolds, aka Instapundit, explaining why local dogs had gone missing.
2004 – IMAO jumps the shark with its coverage of the 2004 race of W versus some random New England elitist everyone has already forgotten. Frank J. held a t-shirt babe contest in a surprisingly effective ploy to get a date.
2005 – Frank J. gets married and immediately stops being funny. He tried to compensate by turning IMAO into a group blog, though it’s really just Frank J. posting under a bunch of really fake sounding names like “spacemonkey” or “Harvey.”
2006 to 2015 – It gets to be kind of a blur at this point. I remember something about Fred Thompson. Ask Harvey.
2016 – Donald Trump seizes the Republican nomination and renders political satire redundant.
2017 – This post.
Well, that’s it. Quite a history. And who knows what will happen in the next fifteen years? Probably the complete collapse of this country and the outlawing of free speech — but they’ll forget to outlaw blogs since that was like this fad from years ago that everyone had forgotten about. Then IMAO will be leading the resistance — as long as there is still some money to be made from GoogleAds.
Thanks for fifteen years, everybody!
The one thing you can always be sure about liberals, Democrats, and other useless creatures is that they’ll be wrong.
