So, somehow new Gentleman Jason Kuznicki – hereafter known as the most unlucky blogger on the face of the planet – had his user account deleted along with all his posts. In my attempt to restore these, I killed the last day’s posts and comments. Sorry to all the writers and commenters. Hopefully, we’ll have the posts back and Jason up and running soon. I, meanwhile, will try to find out why my daily backup apparently does not include backups of user accounts.
Any questions, shoot me an email: erik dot kain @ gmail dot com
Thanks and sorry for the confusion and loss of comments and posts.

Borat: “I do a picture, only small, of the Tishnik Masacre. Where many Uzbeks…crushed!”
Kindly Gray Hippie: “How did you feel when you drew this?”
Borat: “Very proud!”.
KGH: “I’m just listening with sadness…a little sadness for your people…?”
Borat: “Yes…no, it is not sad. It is us who do the kill!”
When in doubt,

Did you ever work at the DOJ?
ED, I have a son-in-law who works for Rackspace in San Antonio. Maybe they can help?
I wish I could, but heck, I’ve got dial up…I can’t even watch videos.
I’m melting! What a world… what a world…
You know North, The Wizard of Oz, is like a very favorite movie…does that have some underlying meaning?
Maybe it does Bob but if so I don’t know what it is. Mainstream American Culture is an enormous hole in my personal knowledge.
I’m Rufus!
I just wish I was Rufus. Lately I only barely count as myself.
Dude, for what it’s worth, I am spectacularly irritated on your behalf.
Damnit Jay! I was hoping that meme would stay dead.
I was going to make a “We are all Jason Kuznicki now” post but it seemed insensitive.
Holy Moses! Is that where that went? I made my joke and went off to work and forgot about it.
Wow. I’m deeply sorry.
?
sorry
GODDAMIT.
Ah. You guys deleted the ability to post pictures. Well none of this makes any sense, then. Sorry.
Additionally, how many jokes that relied on strikeout tags have floated away ungotten, indeed, ungettable?
Speaking of Obama being better than Bush on the topic of Medicinal Marijuana…
http://www.mainjustice.com/2010/03/01/dea-marijuana-seizures-nearly-double/
The total amount of marijuana seized by the Drug Enforcement Administration nearly doubled from 1,539 metric tons in fiscal 2008 to 2,980 metric tons in last year.
The numbers were disclosed as part of the DEA’s budget request for fiscal 2011.
What a pity.
2980 tons a year is 57 tons a week is 8 tons a day.
Which brings us to the question: What percentage of stuff coming in does this represent?
Half?
Quarter?
Tenth?
How about too much? It’s a waste. Did you ever read Bloom County when they described the Drug War using hair tonic? Pure win.
gee i just thought the site was going Galt.
We should do that, actually.
I am imagining Atlas Shrugged re-written to be about content-producing bloggers totally withdrawing from parasitic aggregators: withdrawing, smug in their purity, to a remote location to trade xeroxed zines.
“Dude, your pager is going off.”
“That means my xeroxes are ready!”
“Let’s get in the horse and buggy and pick them up!”
The dystopia of a Galt’s Gulch perpetually stuck in 1997 (remember the noise modems make?) is one that, for some reason, becomes exponentially more appealing the more I think about it than less so…
The music is much better, for one thing.
“Galt’s Gulch ’97” would be a great title for something, too. Everyone would listen to “Semi-Charmed Life” all the time. And I do remember the sound modems used to make. Has anyone figured out how to express it in text? Schueuooo-whheeeee, blorp blorp…
Francis Dunnery has a song about how great it is to live in the future and the opening noises/music is the sound of a 56k modem connecting.
Nothing ages faster than the future, I tell ya.
