Don’t do that again!
Drat and curses. That’ll teach me to go cheap on the backhoe when I want a site to go down…
J.
And here I was hoping the moron and trolls would move on.
Oliver….I start reading my list of morning blogs with you everyday…What was that, anyway?
WTF happened??!! Seriously.
Glad you have been listening to your readers:)
Hey Jay
YOU GUYS LOST–GET OVER IT ALREADY!!!!
Did you really have to go and take Oliver’s site down?!? Sheesh!
Saw a documentary the other day, talking about how much work has been put in by the Obama camp with the evangelicals (and how little by McCain as well). Turns out that they aren’t just all hung up about gay marriage and abortion, but want to follow some of the other bible teachings, such as stewardship of the Earth and helping the poor and sick (including HIV people in Africa). I found it interesting in that I always thought that ‘fuck you’ capitalism and the teachings of Jesus was a strange marriage.
Oliver….I start reading my list of morning blogs with you everyday…What was that, anyway?
Same here. Oh sure, I do the route, but it lacks… something without all of you.
It’s good to have you back, Oliver.
I visit at least a couple of times, schedule depending, every single day…
I was beginning to wonder if that much lauded ‘vast-right wing’ conspiracy had finally gotten their claws on you.
Well, I hated it. I had nothing to do but go over to Wizbang and piss those people off.
I was freaking out. I thought maybe the recession got ya or something.
“I had nothing to do but go over to Wizbang and piss those people off.”
As if they haven’t been in a perpetual state of pissant rage since before the election.
“I had nothing to do but go over to Wizbang and piss those people off.”
As if they haven’t worked themselves into a constant state of pissant rage since before the election.
It’s really weird over there. Kind of a Bizarro World, where nonsense makes sense and unreasonable people yell at you for being “irrational” and “stupid.”
Oh, and my personal favorite, a victom of “Bush Derangement Syndrome”.
… and can you believe that our good friend Jay tea got “hired away”?

This is what the reality based world calls failing up.
I’ve only ever peeked at wizbangblog a few times, so can someone whose spent more time there clarify if this almost self-contradictory opening paragraphs is typical of what passes for clear writing over there?
I have hit these landmarks, but I will not reach these landmarks which I have hit?
Huh?
Sean, I think he was saying he ‘almost’ did all those things, but didn’t quite get there. As in, almost but didn’t quite hit the 4,000 article marker.
And wizbang can be entertaining. Think powerline with some smart and some really crazy commenters. There’s one liberal Canadian guy called ‘Hyperbolist’ – some sort of philosophy professor, I think – who’s quite good.
I think he was saying he ‘almost’ did all those things
Yeah, on re-reading it I got that (hence my “this almost self-contradictory opening”) but it took a re-reading and a “is that</i maybe what he means?” to get there, so I still note it as an example of very un-clear writing.
” …it took a re-reading …”
Which is really why I don’t envy who ever at Commentary has to do this job:
Aw, shucks, the love is just overwhelming…
Yup, I got offered a new gig, and I took it. And so far, it’s working out quite well.
But I’ll never forget all the little people who helped me get there, and won’t forget where I came from. So that means I’ll still pop in here from time to time.
Thanks for the best wishes and congratulations.
J.
I don’t think Jay Tea quite understands.
Welcome back!
I really did miss this site while it was down, I check it a few times a day. One suggestion, though, if you don’t mind: could you put the time on your posts?
Stay on, OW!
fafaroo, I’m reading between the lines. I know what you’re all really thinking.
J.
In all seriousness, good for you, Jay.
“I know what you’re all really thinking.”
No,Jay, I really don’t think you do.
I will say this, JT: you’re a lot smarter than Kim Priestap and that Jempty character, for what that’s worth.
what the hell was that about Oliver?
Seriously, what happened? More than curiosity, I checked out your hosting provider when their 404 pages came up, and I liked their hosting packages but I’d like a recommendation before going with them and I’m interested in what you think and obviously if the outages were related to problems on their end.
