The Carnival of the Vanities is sort of like...like when you get picked last for the team, but you get a special chit that let's you say, "No, no...you don't seem to understand...I don't suck..." and you get to turn in the chit and force everyone to pick teams again with you first...or something like that, anyway...
Eric Berlin is this week's host.
I submitted my post, "Ernie Pyle is Dead", which went horribly unappreciated, except by Nathan at The Argus (where you should be getting all of your 'stans news). Thank you, Nathan.
I'm sure there's a lot of interesting stuff over there, so if you're looking to broaden your blog-reading horizons, go check it out.

Comment Info and Policy:
1) You must have Javascript enabled in your browser in order to comment (blame the spammers). If you don't know what that is, you're probably fine.
2) HTML is on, so basic html should work. Raw links will be made auto-clickable, too, so even if you don't know html you can just paste in the link and it should work fine. Keep the "http://" in it.
3) Comments are generally unmoderated, which means I don't necessarily agree with the tone and tenor of everything posted. In fact, sometimes people post things they don't really mean just to make other people look bad. The internet is an anonymous place for the most part. That said...
4) I welcome you to post here. I'd love to have your input, agree, disagree or just offer a different data point, really. If I didn't want any participation, I'd turn off comments. Be aware, however, that this blog and the comments section exist for my entertainment. Therefore, I reserve ALL RIGHTS here, including the right to remove any or all comments on nothing more than a whim. Please don't even bother complaining. I'm the one providing the space and the free news and thought buffet. I don't owe anyone anything.
Anyone who posts here will be treated as my guest. That means I'm happy to be polite as a default, but if anyone is rude to the host they'll be unceremoniously shown the door.
It may pay to recall a famous line from the Tom Selleck magnum opus, Mr. Baseball: "Jack-san, you want Yoji's advice about the babes, you come to Yoji with respect."
5) Enjoy your stay!

Posted the Times piece in the headline bar at right already. It's a good one. Posting on the other one now...
