See, Ma, Those Three Masters Did Me Good
So it is true--INOTBB brings you all the snoot, plus as of yesterday's random Flickr-blogging, more boobs.
You can have it all.

About Me
- Name: George
George markets only for the forces of good for a living. He has a paid hobby that involves eating, drinking, and writing, things he’d do for free, which is almost what he’s doing it for. In a previous life he taught mostly illiterate and generally ungrateful college students how to write. He has been a body guard for Jodie Foster, a walk-on dancer with French avant garde troupe Maguy Marin, a film programmer, a judge at an Iron Chef style competition, a political activist, a textbook author, a bassist in a band, a two-time league winning fantasy baseball manager, a union local president, a pr flack helping run a red carpet at an Angelina Jolie event, a janitor, a chauffeur to folks from TC Boyle to Andrei Codrescu, a delivery man to Plato's Retreat, a reluctant writer of a non-snarky intro for Colin Powell, a radio DJ, a corn detassler, an escort van driver, a rock journalist, a lab assistant for a company that made everything from mouthwash to super skin lubricant, and even, once, a poet. His biggest brush with fame was when Julie Christie fondled his tie, a tie George Lopez belittled to 1000 people minutes later. The best thing about him is his wife. His dogs aren't bad, either.

You'd think that would keep out the wingers/torturers.
You can't keep them out...but you can't expect them to understand much, either.
Mine got "undergrad" which all-in-all is pretty accurate given that we do talk about beer and getting hammered a lot.
I definitely have to be sober or drunk on really high-end shit to understand your blog, george.
Wait. You mean we were supposed to read the posts. We're just here for the boobies.
Oh, and the greyhounds. Mmmmm greyhounds with boobies.
OK we just creeped ourselves out.
Huh? I don't get it.
Don't confuse us by trying to play along, McC.
I'm just an undergrad.
McC--
You wander into our political side of the blogosphere, call someone a "fat whore," and then wonder why people don't like you. You might have a sense of humor, but that might be the only sense you have.
Besides, you prove you really don't get it by acting like all folks on the left side of the political spectrum are in lockstep. We lefties never get anywhere because we're so good at attacking each other. Unlike the folks on the right, like, say, Pat Robertson, who can be oh-so-Christian and still support the pro-life, pro-gay Rudy G.
I'm just an undergrad too.
I'd like to this thing bases the grade off correct spelling, word economy, and how many times you type things like "LOL," "LMAO," or more than one exclamation point in a row.
Junior High School, baby!
Junior. High. School.
I take great pride in doling out cynicism and bile in hearty doses . . . that even an 11 year-old can understand. I guess we all do have our unique talents after all.

C'mon George, you know the "fat whore" was merely juvenile retaliation for Jill saying I had a small dick. It's tit for tat, and it's immature, but I'm not the only guilty one so don't act like I am. Meanwhile, during your scolding of me you're calling me senseless, amongst other things. I know you'd probably LIKE it if I didn't strike back but it's not my nature, obviously.
As for the second part of your comment, I think you're right: I don't get it. What's your point again?
I understand how SOME OF YOU (no lockstepping) might not appreciate my two cents in this forum. I understand how guys like AHAB and certain political figures from the left would like to silence dissenting opinion, gestapo style. I mean, I get it that maybe you folks would rather all just be singing the same kumbaya together for all eternity without any interference from a differing viewpoint. But that's how I stumbled across you folks in the first place and maybe the reason I still hang around is because when you boil it down we're all still Americans (I'm assuming we're all Americans) and it hurts me and has always hurt me to think that there are people (Americans) out there who not only turn a blind eye to the threats we face as a nation but decry an administration that has attempted to do something about it.
And so it will always be. You folks will go chicken little on the global warming and i'll be crying wolf until the next terrorist attack. I'll be saying it's a good thing when we invade Iran and you'll be organizing a peace rally in the park. I'll be writing congressmen about illegal aliens and you'll be down at the labor wall hiring a guy to mow your lawn for ten bucks. So we're different, so what. I thought that was what made this country great, that you could say what you think and not worry about pers- or prosecution. But every time I say something, anything here the persecution is unfiltered.
And don't go off now and say something like "the whining from the right" again like when you lumped me in with the Turtles. I'm not whining. It doesn't make me sad that you people are the way you are. It's more like how Yankee fans felt about Red Sox fans before 2004. We didn't really hate them, we just kind of pitied them.
I knew I was a Genius.
http://santabarbaraminorityreport.blogspot.com
Just call me Professor MC Shrinky Dink, students; class is in session.
Yes, they do say that geniuses are often completely worthless with capitalization and punctuation, verb tense and subject agreement and simple logic.
So what's a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?
I have an English degree, but admittedly lean towards the quick, bang-out comments devoid of proper capitalization procedure here. I also have a handful of five-dollar words I can bust out at any time to either impress or disgust the people I am conversing with (they're not usually impressed).
Fast and loose--that's how to blog. Rickey was an english major too, but he still enjoys treating the english language like a red headed step child. And use f-bombs.
Maybe too late on this...
When you enter in a site to check its 'readability', the website spits out code to put the image on a blog.
In the code is a link to a cash advance website. It's hidden such that you have to scroll to see it, and the window for viewing the code is so narrow you may miss the line.
Folks on another site noticed and said 'clever; that cash advance site now has hundreds of links to it'.
Totally blows.
