Of balls, bears, and Stephen Colberts
So, I came across this link to Stephen Colbert's brutal burst of truthiness at the White House Correspondents' Dinner a couple Saturdays ago and I clicked it.
Dude, Stephen Colbert has balls. Now, a lot of schmu -- er, people at Fox News have been protesting Mr. Colbert's performance, but personally I found it inspiring. So I tried to make this t- ( Read more... ) -

Just when I thought I was out, they pulled me back in . . .
I can't believe it's been over a year since I last updated this blog. I meant to, really, I did. I had a rather clever bit of shinyblogging about "furryoverlord," perhaps the best blog I've seen yet from a cat. Some day.
But for now, I'm writing something else. Something novel. A novel, to be precise. The introduction and the first two ( Read more... ) -
Big Fish: Fourteen Some-Odd Feet of Blogs
Welcome back, my best beloveds. It's been a while since I've seen you here. We have quite a bit of shinyblogging before us, work to do, work to do.
But before we get there, I wanted to announce that pumpsnail rules. Being new to livejournaland, I've been hunting about for usericons, and I mysteriously found myself on pumpsnail's page, and she had the cutest little ( Read more... ) -
Valentine's Day. Get down with some artsy lovin'!
Happy Valentine's Day! Or, for you single folks, Happy International Quirkyalone Day!
Alas A's out of town today, and, there's no International Quirkyalone Day party nearby, so I'm afraid I'll just have to go snog-free. Woe is shinyblogs. So I sent myself this Hallmark card to cheer myself up:

On obsessions, snogging, friending and things worth noticing: Angela's blog & thirty gallons of lube
So, I was reading Vivienne's blog, because it's so darn good, and she had a post about my post about her, which apparently made her pass out. (She blames the flu, but we know, gentle reader, that she really swooned from my raw shinyblogs machismo.) And there's a comment by one of her readers toward the bottom of the page that's like "I liked the ( Read more... ) -
Cho 'nuff, Margaret got cool.
As I write today's Shiny Blog review, I find myself wondering: When did Margaret Cho get so cool? I guess it was over a decade ago when I first noticed her, and she was funny enough at the time as a young stand-up comedian. But I never really thought of her as particularly cool. If anything, she was imposed-cool, like MTV or some other arbiter of ( Read more... ) -
Potentially cannibalistic vegetarian models, dangerous woohoodoh, and why S is the luckiest letter.
As you may have realized, I'm somewhat new to blogspace. It's not just that I've only just started this journal; I've also really only just started exploring other people's journals. And in these initial explorations, I've been struck by one thing: there are a lot of beautiful women writing well-written blogs.And I'm not quite sure how I feel about ( Read more... ) -
Sir Ian's Virtual Shire
Today's Shiny Blog review is devoted to Ian McKellen's blog. Sir Ian McKellen's blog, I should say. You know, Gandalf. (And, ironically, he played Hitler in 1989, so it's fair to say the man has range ( Read more... ) -
Further mmmuse-ings
It dawns on me that, given my "I just want to know her" opening entry, and my focus on Jillian Ann's bosom pics and on models in general thus far, that you might be thinking that this is just going to be a blog written by a fellow who sits around webgawking at hot women who he'd be too timid to approach in bars, and then tries to figure out ways to ( Read more... )
