Is this the end of McArdle?Can't fool us for long!
And with that, I'll say so long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, goodbye. Be nice to the guest bloggers. I'll miss you all.Is it too much to hope she'll fade away, never again to darken the pages of The Atlantic? It would be irresponsible not to speculate. (And not to cross one's fingers & knock on wood. While holding one's breath.)
Book-typing leave is a wonderful way of easing out a public embarrassment. Whichever of the guest-loggers gets the most hits or raises the biggest stench will get his/her (We'd guess her: Quite the sausage fest at The Atlantic's "Voices.") own by-line; perhaps the pretense of guest blogging under Megatron's picture will continue, but w/in mos., Jane Galt's easily-distracted claque will have latched on to a new diva/o. Then it will be safe to make the pursuing-other-interests (desperately trying to find a publisher) announcement, savingThe Atlantic from the outraged squeals of the McAddled.

You can't rid of her. She's like mystery scum on linoleum.

That is something w/ which we were previously unfamiliar, 'though now that you've mentioned it, we're sure to spot some any day.
When I read tBogg's post today, the first thing I thought of was your post from months ago. I've been waiting for the other shoe to drop since then

ReplyDeleteSomeone's paying attention! Thank you, kind & sincere* stranger. You give us hope, you are the wind beneath ... not being sarcastic, really we aren't.
Too bad we didn't go further & realize where she might end up.
*Certainly no one would bother flattering us.
Wait, did we just win the Cold War? Shouldn't there be a fly-by or something?

ReplyDeleteNot an absolute victory, but she is reduced to following Randy Andy Sullivan from rag to rag.
The Atlantic is probably the real winner.
