    Hello, I write a blog about politics and social issues as seen through the lense of my Christianity. I know that is unusual, but it is what I enjoy. Take a gander and all attempts to engage in civil discussion are enjoyed.

    We're the Internet's first-ever "online locker room." A place where men can talk freely about movies, television, pop culture, news, life, babes, wives and what not. Take a gander and enjoy The Daily Dingleberry and The Dude Rules.

    Deep into a mid-nite wandering
    Through the blog-slog dimly wondering,
    Have I been here before, meandering?
    Did you read my blatant pandering?
    Can I be heard above my own ranting
    As arrows piecing flesh, dogs panting
    To chew on bones of those recanting
    Any knowing, every one, all understanding
    For the torture, unrelenting?...
    I digress from former planning...
    To write with you for readers; fanning
    Out from the solitary banning
    By scorching heat of this Red state's flaming

    Firstly, I have to say that this is my new favourite site. I hope to contribute to blogcritics in the future.

    My new website is called Eightyford.com, there you can find reviews, opinion pieces, and current events. I post about my graphic design business, and offer free graphic design to any blogger who needs some help. All I ask for is a link.

    Favourite site! How about favorite?

  • 89 - The Sean Show

    Jun 20, 2005 at 5:11 pm

    What is The Sean Show?
    Music postings/reviews twice a week? Weekly reviews of cool comic books? Weekly installments of a culture/art/internet oddity 'zine? A weekly advice column called 'I'm Just Sayin' Is All'? Social/Political Rants? Yeah, it's all that. Plus I frequently babble about things happening in my life as a means of sorting them out. It's surprisingly effective, and cheaper than therapy.

    Oh, yeah, about me: early 30something, DC-living, semi-reformed white trash, homo punk bastard who enjoys outsider art/graf, cartoons, collecting vintage shirts, skating, DJing and poking fun at damn near everything.

    Love me, or else.

    The url http://nuclearsuitcase.blogspot.com is very frightening. I'm not sure if this gent is genuine or these events in Europe are actually happening, but if any of it is true we are all in a world of serious trouble shortly.

    ANybody who would like to become a Blogcritic is welcome to exercise their reading comprehension skills and find out how to do so in the above post.

  • 95 - Eric Olsen

    Aug 02, 2005 at 2:32 pm

    yes, it's a very small test of sorts: since successfully working as a Blogcritic requires a certain amount of following directions, we ask people to follow the directions in the post above to become a member - kind of like a #2 pencil

  • 96 - Phillip Winn

    Aug 02, 2005 at 2:38 pm

    A test that so many fail!

  • 97 - Eric Olsen

    better now than later

    If at first you don't succeed, read the post again.

  • 99 - Eric Olsen

    and it's open book

  • 100 - Eric Berlin

    Aug 02, 2005 at 3:39 pm

    Is this gonna be on the test?

  • 101 - Eric Olsen

    Aug 02, 2005 at 3:51 pm

    a small test, more like a testy

  • 102 - Eric Berlin

    Aug 02, 2005 at 3:52 pm

    I can't remember the last time my testes were tested.

  • 103 - Eric Olsen

    Aug 02, 2005 at 3:56 pm

    it takes a fair amount of testicular fortitude to hand those testes over to the tester

  • 104 - Bennett

    Aug 02, 2005 at 3:59 pm

    Years ago the doc found a small bumb on one. Sez a "leetle operation" was needed. Sez "deliver the testie".

    I sez "Where to?"

    Walked out.

    Second doc sez "keep an eye on it".

    I have, no prob.

    True story.

    great story, but doesn't it hurt your neck?

    Hyuk! And it tickles!

    Why do you make it so hard to post. I've had friends visit, then email me. How do you put up a post. Maybe you could have a box at the top. Would you like to be a blogcritic. When you say join blogcritics, some might shy away, thinking $$$, committment, SS#. Just a thought from the Christian Right.

    With regard to this, it's becoming more than somewhat apparent that the 'Caltrain suicides' may actually be a population control scheme of the Ray Bradbury genre. With regard to fark.com link to news.messages.yahoo.com and the two message board entries titled, 'Bush: Taking a shit spurs economy' and 'Re: Bush: Taking a shit spurs econom', can we accomodate the perspective that a dirty hand in the air leads to an igno-minious demise as a media-described public nuisance, with no hint of an un-savory past except among law enforce-ment politicos? Wasn't Levi-Strauss supposed to be weathering a lawsuit about low-rise pants? And, to top the cake, there in the terminal e-mail line-up is numbered a strange communication from an outfit ready to relay the latest input about 'sex-offenders' in reader zip code -- just a click to know which guys are in dire straits and finish last -- this in a district which borders a district where Wells Fargo Bank charges overdraft fees which match the cross-street municipal bus line number, and near a city park where managed-sink-holes are labeled as
    'lakes'.

    With the knowledge that telephone call-demand strategies allowed a misinter-pretation of the 'SUNY' acronymn to be implemented as a foray into the 'Sunni' region of Iraq [ha, ha? it should have been spelled out?], the distinct possi-bility that Ray Bradbury fans are mapping out individual disgrace and demise can hardly be discounted.

    Hi,
    Visit my really cooool blog

  • 116 - Marcia L. Neil

    Weblogs are intended to present alarmist co-relations. As further example, after an AOL chat session which introduced intended discussion about the atmosphere near oil refineries (one on Aruba) and the egos of oil industry personnel relative to the prevention of volcanoes, a mere few weeks later the Colima volcano erupted again! Is that a hint that the region needs a [new] oil refinery? There should always be a place to post such conjectures.

    Marcia, you're either really nutty or that's some funny satire of blog wonkery.

    That is all.

    Davinci code.... the usual thing, read it all before in Holy Blood, Holy grail! Christ had a wife, cathars and all that blah blah blah... if youre really interested in christian theology and spirituality read the likes of CS Lewis or Cardinal Basil Hume and leave this done to death plagiarism alone!If however it`s a detective thriller you seek then im sure the Nancy Drew series would be right up your street, that is if you still take the Davinci code seriously

  • 119 - sinead Connolly

    Also, will somebody tell the film industy to stop making the likes of "the sin eater"! just stop it. now.

    Is this thread where the crazy people go to ramble now?

    That is all.

  • 121 - with karate ill kik ur ass

    Aug 17, 2005 at 10:02 am

    what is this crazy crazy page 4?!! and y is ther an Eric berlin and an Eric Olsen?R they two different ppl?

  • 122 - Bob A. Booey

    Aug 17, 2005 at 10:07 am

    It's Olsen's Checkpoint Charlie alter ego for when he travels in Berlin behind the Iron Curtain.

    Are you trying to blow someone's cover, Karate Kid?

    I still think Hillary Swank has been cheated out of one more Oscar, for her performance as Mister Miyagi's limber mentor in The Next Karate Kid. She ably filled Ralph Macchio's dojo slippers after he turned 50. That little Italian kid was crazy young-looking and weird -- he was like 30-something when he made those Karate Kid movies and like 40 when he did My Cousin Vinny. Maybe I'm exaggerating a little, but he was way, way older than you'd think.

    That is all.

  • 123 - with karate ill kik ur ass

    Aug 17, 2005 at 10:10 am

    nope bob, i just always found it weird that they had almost the smae names and the same personalty (from wat i can tell from their posts) and they were two different ppl.

  • 124 - Bob A. Booey

    Aug 17, 2005 at 10:30 am

    Berlin is Olsen's younger, punkier, artsier Mini-Me.

    That is all.

  • 125 - Eric Olsen

    Aug 17, 2005 at 10:34 am

    it is indeed hard to believe that with over 1000 writers, two of them would be named "Eric" - I believe we should get Mulder and Scully on the case
