Clancy sent me a note about a poll in yesterday's print edition of USA Today:

USA Today, print edition (I couldn't find it online, but I only looked for a few minutes) in the Life section - they have a mini-poll. Anyway, the results of the mini-poll say that 60% of the respondents don't hit the snooze button and thus have no idea what your blog is about...

I'm ever the optimist though. To me that says that 40% of respondents owe me fealty as well as numerous presents.

Of course a realist would just say that 100% of the respondents wasted several seconds of their life answering a meaningless poll but we'll ignore the realists but they'd no doubt have a similar comment about the people reading this post.

By the way, Clancy, your blog is looking as empty as Bill Clinton's bag of morals. 60% of your readers want some more stuff from GF. The other 40% are too busy taking polls to notice. ;-)

1 *making note of the foreplay remark so as to have actual useful proof it DOES exist, GM1, you lying bugger you* James, I am impressed. Particularly about the quivering thighs part... who told?

3 If the time in bed refers to sleeping, then this quiz is pretty darn accurate for me...

4 It's a good one, but here's a little secret, gents: sometimes, we like a quickie. Oh yes. We love the men that go for hours. We love the marathon sessions. But sometimes, just stop drilling us and give us a raunchy 5 minutes. Really. It does the job just as well sometimes.

5 Of course, I wouldn't trade my Sunday afternoons for anything. You know. Just in case someone was reading something into my post. There's a reason that women can scream like they do, after all. Good god, my comments are always raunchy. Sorry Jim

6 Are you kidding me? Raunch is highly encouraged. I'm hunting traffic. ;-)

7 Helen, NEVER apologize... Ya know when I put in "Mike" it only gave me 1 hour and 49 minutes... Then I put in "Mike the Marine" and I got the correct answer: 6hrs 48mins Beat ya, Jim... WOOT!

I've been seriously remiss with my blogroll lately. One of the things about using an RSS reader is that I don't use my own blogroll as a surfing point any longer. I add and subtract blogs in the reader, think "hey, I should update my blogroll" and then get distracted by something shiny.

I've finally taken a couple of minutes to make the blogroll actually match the blogs that I read. The list is a lot shorter than it used to be. The reasons why I trimmed blogs out are varied. Some had closed shop. Some had moved or modified and are there under their new guises. Some had changed considerably since I first started reading them and they just didn't peak my interest any longer. Some were just too profligate and I simply didn't have the time to invest in reading them any longer.

The saddest ones by far were the ones that were warped out of the zone of readability by politics. Blogs that I had picked up because they were informative and pointed became echo chambers of partisan rhetoric. Very, very harsh rhetoric. At a certain point I just couldn't read any more about how Bushitler is jackbooting all over the world or that Kerry was Sonny Bono reincarnate (only not as good looking and unable to carry a tune in a bucket with a Ziploc lid). I still followed those blogs for some time, judging by post titles whether I'd read the individual entries or not. Eventually it got to the point where I wasn't reading any of the posts so I removed the blogs from my aggregator.

Now my blogroll matches my actual blog reading and the horrible rent in space-time caused by that disparity is healing itself. When you don't get sucked into a parallel dimension tonight you can all thank me.

(I just realized that getting "sucked into a parallel dimension" could also be taken as a sexual metaphor, in which case it would be a very good thing and I hope it happens to you tonight.)
