It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time


















"These Chinamen doors fools even me!"

Since we're on the subject of deception, in order to trick the Technorati Troll -- and what is more of altered-reality, mind-fucking space trip than that? -- one cannot simply add stuff to the side of your blog in order for the recipient to get credit; the link must be in a post. You geeky little scamps!

Anyway, these ladies have been added to the blogroll because I enjoy their writing, their witty, spiced with a bit o' the anger, commentary at various sites that fear being crushed by the Cyclopean behemoth floating in the tubes with diabolical intent that is The Google, or they've sent me cash:

I've got nothing else today, but I'm in a terrible fabulous mood, so here's a happy yet understated little ballad about the three things humans do better above all else, peace, love and understanding:

yeah, what is up with that Technorti? links to my blog never show up so I can't really rely on it. well, I must do a post whereby I submit my blogroll as the topic so that those creepy spiders pick something up for you all!

Oh, Wow! A Fabulous Mood!

Gees, when ya gonna add me to your blog roll?

Oooops, don't got no blog. Never mind. I had an egg roll with Sushi the other night. does that count? You can add my egg roll?

Mary Ellen said...

Is there supposed to be two videos? I just see a big black space on the top of your post. Or am I going blind? Oh fuck! My eyes! My eyes!!!!

Randal Graves said...

liberality, that's not a bad idea, just post the blogroll every now and then.

okjimm, I'll add it with the six!

ME, if I didn't know any better, I would think you were blaspheming against Der Leader. But since I know you're not, I'll just stop dialing the number for DHS.

I post my blogroll in a message every six months. The "authority" is based not on the number of total links, but on the number of blogs linking to you in the last 6 months, regardless of the number of links/per site. By linking to each other semi annually, we can keep our links counting.

Your blog is very educational. I didn't know that. I thought if I put people in my blog roll their Technorati rating would go up. Merci for teaching those among us who are not techno savy. And, I also learn stuff about the Cleveland Browns, George Bush and the birthdays of famous people I can't buy presents for because they are dead. Do you provide CEU's? ;-)

It's a fabulous (terrible) day in the neighborhood isn't it?!

Mary Ellen said...

I happened to notice your rating (NC-17) on your sidebar and thought I'd check out mine. I also have the same rating as yours. I think you corrupted my blog! Here are the words that are responsible for my rating.

* breast (65x)
* gun (3x)
* death (2x)
* crack (1x)

I don't remember talking about breasts 65 times..or is it all the pictures of half naked women I put up to entice the guys to come visit my blog? But 65 times??

And crack...only twice? I guess they don't care if we talk about pot.

Death..only two times. I have to start threatening more people, I'm slackin' off in my old age.

Randal Graves said...

LBR, never misunderestimate me to cobble a bunch of unrelated crap in an attempt to edumacate my readers. And CEUs? Why not? It's not like I'm not already chancellor of my own college! ;-)

fot, ne serez-vous pas mon voisine ?

ME, moi? I think you were dabbling in the dark arts long before ole Randal came on the scene. As for your blog's love of the breast, have you seen the outfits you appear in?

As for pot, perhaps the program thinks we're discussing cookery.

If you plan on threatening more people, just remember who loves ya. Plus, I'm all the way over here, you can't reach me anyway, muahahahaha!

Dean Wormer said...

"Scamps?"

Are you going to start throwing around two-dollar words like "hullabaloo" and "fisticuffs" now?

You're such a cad.

PoliShifter said...

Keep trying to collect that internet money....I'm worth like a billion internet dollars...

Mary Ellen said...

Awww Randal, I'd never hurt you. Now, polishifter, there's a guy I might take a swing at. :-D

(just kidding...polishifter, put your gun away)

Oh, I died laughing when I saw that picture of George Bush!!! Especially with the title of the post. I couldn't see straight for a few minutes there!

Randal Graves said...

dean, verily, would it not be all the worse if I spoke in thy King's English? Fantastick!

poli, which, now, is worthless, but as the actual dollar keeps dropping, might be worth something soon. I still have my Monopoly money, just in case!

frederick, I sure hope you didn't reveal and national security secrets.

b, hey! Someone actually caught my Run-DMC reference! If I had a prize to give away, you would get it!

anita said...

wow, thanks randal!! for link and the VERY kind words.

Randal Graves said...

Don't thank me, you should be thanking your brain!

Egg Roll Emporium! You break me up! (and gave me a big grin) Tanks!

They are filming this big budget hollywood movie thing in town. A block from where I live. It is kinda fun. I met some of the actors last night. They buy expensive tequila. I bought a round of beer. All in all, though, it is cheaper to buy the People from the Blog beers. And the Blog-folk have much more interesting names ;)

Yesha said...

hi! i just dropped by. can't relate though, i don't have technorati. T_T

lol. great blog. =]

Randal Graves said...

okjimm, glad I could provide a chuckle! They're disconnected Hollywood Elite®, what do you expect! Any clue as to what the movie is?

autumn, thanks for stopping by and the kind words!

Tom Harper said...

So THAT's how Technorati measures links. I forget when they made that change, but my Technorati "authority" went from 120 to the double digits, and kept on plummeting until it reached 50-something. Now it's around 70, give or take.

Then again, when I Google my site to see who links (type "link:" and then your URL) there are thousands of links to me.

Not that it matters a whole lot, but it's weird getting such totally different answers to the same question. It would be like your employer saying "I'll pay you either $1 a day or $10,000 a week, depending on which scale I use for measuring your performance."

Randal Graves said...

Oh, good job. Give them another idea of how to screw us over.

Movie---ya, it's called 'Public Enemies' About the Dillinger Gang. Johnny Depp, Christian Bale, Billy Crudup....really big time stuff. All the production stuff is set up half a block from my apartment. I got to do shots with 'Baby Face Nelson'.

ana ya make me chuckle on a rather regular basis.

Randal Graves said...

That could be one hell of a movie. What we - well, me - want to know is, any Marion Cotillard sightings?

Anonymous said...

Marion...? ya, she was in the bar last night. But I was talking with this set designer ..... who IS extremely HOT....and extremely intelligent.... it seems we have the same taste in antique art pottery and Mission Furniture..... However her taste in soon to be antique men did not extend to me. Pfffffft I will talk with smart sexy women alla time. She should be back here in twenty minutes..... hmmmmmmm I told her I would take her out for egg rolls.
