Bookah, the Tuneskis will be back eventually. I just got bored with looking at the ST Army up there, and didn’t have any good ideas for something to replace them right at the moment. (Sadly, I don’t actually own any Buffalo Springfield.)

I think I’m done with the Bandwagon Chicks though. It was drawing WAY, WAY too much irrelevant bullshit traffic, hotlinking to the pics, etc. and I’m tired of having to weed through all that when checking the logs and such. Dr. Amy Mainzer’s got herself one hell of a huge fan club. And apparently this here blog was hosting the single most comprehensive repository of pics of her on the whole damned internet (all 6 pics worth.) I’ve got an unmetered bandwidth hosting account, so the bandwidth isn’t the issue. It’s the annoyance. (Recall that I’m fiercely devoted to my own pet peeves.) This is a Saints blog, not a place for scientists to gather and beat off. Hell, even now, weeks after I removed them, I’ve still got dudes out there scrambling to manually type in the magic URL to where those pics might still be. Jesus.

Hell, how long has Olindo Mare been gone? And I’m still getting the occasional hit from people Googling the phrase “mare fucking.” I don’t eeeeven wanna know. Kenny Wilkerson’s still Googling himself pretty regularly too.

Brees has been listening to CowTurd too much. He’ll snap out of it and turn the radio off soon enough.

Anyway here’s the thing.  Reggie Bush’s middle name is Alfred?  I had no idea.  That means Bush is R.A.B.  That dude totally punked Voldemort!  Maybe we’re underestimating him.

I’m trying out this new “Echo” commenting system that I found out about through Jeffrey’s Haloscan setup over at the Yellow Blog. It seems pretty slick, but the comments are hosted off-site. I had them to a “sync” a couple days ago, but didn’t want to turn it on yet. So a handful of comments post-sync but pre-activation got lost. My fault.

But nothing will be lost if I turn this shit off, so please do feel free to say so if this thing just doesn’t do it for ya. Or worse yet, makes it harder to leave a comment. People leaving comments gives me a huge boner, which is why I paid $$$ for this thing in the first place. But if it’s gonna actually discourage comments, then screw that, I’ll turn it off.

Meantime, I dunno, it seems kind of cool that you can “login” as your identity on Google, Yahoo, Blogspot, Twitter, etc. and broadcast your comment(s) to any of those “social network” type deals if you wanna. And you can do stupid shit like format text, embed pics or YouTube vids, etc. I trust you all not to be assholes about it and not post stuff like lemonparty. :)

I’m working on getting Facebook set up, Jabco.

You can hotlink pics instead of uploading them with a standard < img > tag.

As has always been the case, we here at moosedenied do not use evil rel=nofollow on links in comments. So linking your name to your blog or Facebook or Myspace page or whatever does in fact get you some of that sweet sweet Google juice. It’s like you’re getting paid to comment! Or some other “act now!” marketing bullshit.

Hey, it’s all about you. (And the aforementioned huge boner I get from people leaving comments.)

So let me know whether it’s cool, or whether I’ve made a big mistake. If this thing sucks, I’ll just turn it off.
