The Return

Bleat is back. (Apparently we aren't supposed to link to Lileks anymore because everyone does. I read that somewhere, I forget where. The person who wrote that didn't think that if everyone stopped linking to Lileks because everyone linked to Lileks, then everyone wouldn't be linking to Lileks, would they?)

And here I thought that people were not linking to Lileks because he seems to be getting grumpier in his old age! Guess I'll have that to look forward to myself (the grumpy part, not the no-linking).

Hollywood could make a movie out of it: GOB's - Grumpy Old Bloggers. A tale of how millions of veteran bloggers try to scoop each other and be the first to post on a news item, followed by a cascade of links and comments. Hey, if they can make money off a movie about e-mail, this could work too!

It was this Marc Weissblott guy I think:

Are we not supposed to link to him either?

I am definitely getting grumpy in my old age.

As Yogi Berra was supposed to have said:

"Nobody goes there anymore. It's too crowded."
