Tony T.

IV = Intravenous or Intra Venous.

Ya big nong.

And btw - Geoff (not Jeff) Honnor (not Honour) is these days, due to his infrequent appearances, the disembodied voice of omnipotence (not impotence)

Sob.

In just 789 short days demoted from peerless to funky 4. And I’ve given up trivia, too.

Thanks anyway, Geoff.

Snort.

Clearly the AGB is better than David Tiler, Adrian the Rabbi, Alison Kraus, Dr Jayant Patel, Roger Urgently, Peter the Possum Man, Thingo and Whatsisface.

Har. Umpf.

Everything I (KP) have heard from Brumby suggests the Victorian government isn’t brimming with enthusiasm to subsidise F1 to stay in Melbourne after 2010.

He’s practically begging them to take it away. Any less enthusiastic and he’d be offering money to a city willing to put the thing on.

Ken the Hillsong/Benny Hinn /Happy Clappy faith is a version of search engine maximisation game at root.

Just tweak the homilies and standard pious mouthings and affirmations from day to day and the supreme being (Google) and then humans (Yahoo, Live Search MSN) will be fooled into ranking you.

Tony T’s funky IV line into singularly informed sporting discussion and adventures in pub trivia should be in there, Ken. Sarah and Gam’s “Apathetic Youth” is clearly an acquired taste. I reckon it would benefit from Homer and Graeme Bird becoming regular commenters.

“When I read those blogging for money sites I get such a weird feeling of disconnect.”

Maybe that’s partly because many of the money-from-blogging sites seem to be conducted by Hillsong-style fundie Christians. It seems that their “prosperity gospel” fits well with businesses involving cheating Internet systems to make money from advertising revenue by creating an illusion of an audience that you don’t actually possess. Apparently that sort of dishonesty isn’t immoral in their version of christianity, just as the bits about rich men, camels and the eye of a needle and Jesus ejecting the moneychangers from the temple seem to be excluded from their version of the Bible.

Even I get discombobbed reading AFL match reports. And Spanky Roebuck.

That must be a devastating blow for Skelliewag though. Would you take blogging advice from someone who can’t even beat Marieke Hardy in one of the noddiest of blogging award categories imaginable?

When I read those blogging for money sites I get such a weird feeling of disconnect. Like, they’re talking about something I know but at the same time a totally unfamiliar universe. Like reeading AFL match reports or something. Discombobulating!

From news.com.au item on blogs “award” comments:

Margaret of Newtown writes:

Congratulations Marieke! I hope that this award results in a bunch of other women in their mid-thirties following your example and dressing like 6yo girls.

My list would include David Tiley (who has actually won a blog award, proving that they’re not always a rort), Adrian the Cabbie, Alison Croggon, Dr Faustus, Roger Migently, Possum Comitatus and (I confess) Apathetic Sarah and Gam. Don’t ask me to pick a winner out of those, I don’t think I could

none of the Australian nominees besides Hardy were blogs that anyone actually reads

What would be the recommendations of the CT crowd then, or has that topic already been done?
