Hails of derisive laughter, Bruce!

Ahhh-hahahahha!

*breathes, wipes a tear*

Ooooh-hoooo. That was good.

By the way, I invented the weblog.

    No you didn't, I did. I just kept the idea to myself. I've vowed to never let that happen again, which is why I now loudly share every idea I have no matter how wrongheaded, trivial or just plain stupid, it may be.

    Flaming marshmallows it is then. Twenty paces boys. Make sure not to aim for the crotch, that wouldn't be sporting. Now, as you two battle, I'm just going to finish filling out this patent form for weblogs and content managment systems. Don't hurt yourselves.

    oh ya? make me; no you make me; no you make me make you, no....

    The best part of it all was your commentary Stavros. Now that was rich.

    Screw y'all. I haven't gotten one thank you card for cooking up electricity. You can blog all you want about who blogged the blog, but without me you're doing it in the dark.
