New "Web Log"

An addition to the "Neighbors, etc." bogroll: The Editor has taken a gig (pays just as well as this one) ranking on one Megan McArdle, who has been stinking up the place @ The Atlantic.com's Voices section for about a month, as documented here. Hear & see her speak & move, especially the first six or so minutes (it's stupefantastic!!). Tip of the Bouffant chapeau (which, by the way, is usually a baseball cap, not a beret) to Sadly, No! for bringing this outrage to our attention, & especially to brad ("a different brad" when commenting @ S,N!) who started Fire Megan McArdle & opened it up to anyone who wanted to participate (explaining how we got involved).

The Editor Speaks:
We forward, or re-post, or something, a comment from the esteemed Peabody, referring to the bloggingheads.tv "diavlog":

"I tried to comment but Blogspot wouldn't let me. Re: Megan: Weapons grade stupid indeed. She uses the word "awesome" twice in the first three minutes, a word I meticulously avoid using, since I'm virtually never awestruck by any person, thing, or event. Weapons grade stupid.
P."

Perhaps she is easily awestruck. Let's face it, "awesome" is yet another word rendered meaningless by today's young fools, B. A. in English from Penn or not. And we're using a different format for the comments now, maybe this will work better.

Hey, I can comment today. Maybe this format will work better than the other one.

Ed Sez:
Let's hope so. The editor doesn't like this as much as the pop-up because the first comment sometimes gets under (or over) the text @ the top, although that may be the Just Another Blog™ devilbox. Let me know how it looks on the P. devilbox.
