2: Leonard who?
1: Leonard still posts more by himself than all six of the guest blog authors!
2: Oh. Yeah, you're right.
1: We should probably get on that.

Thu Dec 04 2003 17:04 (Kris) Greetings, Cenobytes: Listen to me. Listen to me carefully. There has got to be a way to combine Tron and Hellraiser.

Get to it.

(1) Fri Dec 05 2003 03:39 (Brendan) I was going to post this in the comments but it just wouldn't feel as important: Via Leonard's entry below, maybe the best headline ever:

Panda Arrives in Tokyo on International Love Quest

"Shuan Shuan appeared subdued when she appeared at Narita Airport after a 16-hour flight from Mexico for a rendezvous with 18-year-old stud Ling Ling at Tokyo's Ueno Zoo."

Now that's news!

(1) Thu Dec 11 2003 18:00 (Sumana) Finally: Leonard got to meet Wesley Clark!

I finally got the chance to shake Clark's hand and tell him what I've wanted to tell him since day one: how proud I am to work for him.

Mon Dec 15 2003 10:00 (Brendan): Tired of the fragile, burglarphobic life of the jeweller? Thinking you could be more effective as a B2B goldsmith's note-engraver, but unable to find skilled partners you can trust? Or exploit? Do you wish you could break out the fountain pen and retire to an easy life of signing your name to pretend money, while the job for which you spent years training is done at no cost and with greater cachet by a creature with no recognizable brain? At last, via Kevan, there's an all-natural solution that fits your needs: outsource your work to bugs!
