Perhaps I'll have to ask the Blogospheric Neologian for a ruling on this one. In an e-mail exchange today with Pundette, she said she'd linked me and then added, "Not that you need the hits."
Au contraire! I suffer from an insatiable craving for linkage and a ravenous appetite for additional traffic. (Hello, "Carrie Prejean bikini pics"!) It's never enough. Three "Malkin Award" nominations since February? Not enough. Two Instalanches in one day? Not enough.
Small, rational ambitions are a waste of time. The alternative to growth is not stability, but entropy. Growth implies a teleological purpose, an ultimate goal.
Therefore, I wake up every morning and sit down at the computer aiming to advance further toward total blogospheric hegemony, which is of course but the first step on the road to global Internet domination. If I ever reach the point where I'm getting e-mails from Rush Limbaugh asking that I mention his show on my blog . . .
At any rate, there ought to be a name for such mad ambition. Megalobloggermania?

You're funny!
ReplyDeleteSorry, old fellow, but if you'll look into the matter closely, you'll find that the internet is controlled by a joint venture entity owned 50% by a Paco Enterprises' financial subsidiary based in the Cayman Islands (Prudential Assurance Corporation Online, Ltd.) and 50% by Rupert Murdoch.
ReplyDeleteYou're doing fine, though. Keep up the good work.
You're the Moe Green of the blogosphere, Paco. And we know how that turned out, eh?
ReplyDeleteWould a post titled "Carrie Prejean bikini tea party" bring you enough hits?
ReplyDeleteNot need more hits?? Is she mad? I live for hits. My self-esteem depends on a certain number of hits and there is never, ever enough.
ReplyDeleteI am nothing but a weak and insignificant person without my sitemeter lighting up like a Christmas tree on steroids.
Heh. Bullet-proof spectacles!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't get a hit if my life depended on it. Neither here nor there. I link because I like what you say and you say it so much better than I can. And no, that wasnt a "smoke up the tailpipe moment."
ReplyDeleteCould we say that you crave hits like John Murtha craves taxpayer money?
ReplyDeleteStacy, you're becoming "The Brain."
ReplyDelete"Come, Smitty. We must prepare for tomorrow night."
ReplyDelete"Why? What're we doing tomorrow night, Stace?"
"The same thing we do every night, Smitty -- try to take over the blog world!...And also determine where our $75,000 of mad blog money has gotten to, of course."
Watched "The Rookie" again yesterday. I see a reflect of his attitude--"You know what we get to do today? We get to play baseball"--in you blog.
ReplyDeleteFWIW, it's meant as compliment.
Away for the weekend and just checking in on my patients.
ReplyDeleteI believe you have TDD (Traffic Deficit Disorder). Take two links and see me in the morning.
