Ain't that a beaut? TypePad gets to the link, and quits in a huff. Who needs it? Google "Gates of Vienna" and you're in. The intended link was to a poem written by an Aussie. The Aussie's poem may or may not rival the work of our own Poet Laureate, Russ Vaughn, but it equals him in the mockery department. Read it and giggle.

For reasons that are surely obvious following the two comments above, I have given up trying to insert links into comments. So bear with me, please, as I substitute verbiage for links.

Right this minute, we owe a rousing "Attaboy!" to our Peerless Leader, Bill Faith. He built Bark Back Mountain [sorry, couldn't resist] overnight. His ingenuity got us out of the Petri dish of "Insignificiant Microbes" and into the broad uplands inhabited by Large Mammals. Myself, I was so humiliated by being dismissed as a Microbe that I was on the verge of resorting to cyberterrorism. Only incomptence saved the blogworld from my vengeance.

Last but not least, Bill's post of 8-2-06 entitled "Marine Names Murtha..." got us listed by the Grand Duchess of Blogheim, Alexandra von Maltzan, as one of her "friends." See her Boot Murtha-type post on 8-2 entitled "My Favorite Punching Bag." A hat trick, all in one day.

All together now: HIP HIP!...

Here we go again, monopolizing the space...

For those who would like to learn some facts regarding Israeli progress--or the lack of it--in the war against Hezbollah and need to cut through the MSM underbrush of staged photo-ops, Hez propaganda, and bewailing the death of "innocents," the best source around is Aussie Dave of Israelly Cool.  The lead article daily is a collection of military dispatches and reports from real live war correspondents--they do exist--that he calls "Liveblogging the War."  Those who want to be well-informed should check it out.

After this, I swear, I'll crawl back into the woodwork. Successful comment above, complete with working link, is courtesy of You Know Who, who set me straight. My apologies to Bill and everyone else.

Just one quck thought. Is it possible that the increasing volume of Hezbollock rockets is actually a sign of an impending collapse? Not only might they fire more rockets if they are desparate, but might they also be firing off the rockets on the theory of "use 'em or lose 'em", because hey know they're about to be pushed out of range, and have to make a run for the border?
