Loved this, Gayle, and used it for a silliness break on my blog as well. Not sure if Blogger will display my blog link to the general public, so here it is: http://kittywampus.wordpress.com/ I just wrote a post about Assange that's about 4000 words long, so I was really happy to see you inject some humor into the clusterfuck.
I hope you don't mind my saying here (off the main threads re: Moore&Me) that I really like your blog. The profanity you guys aimed at Sady was a bit much, but she dishes out plenty of potty talk herself so should be able to put it in context. And she's playing up the drama. Bloggers with a big megaphone have a responsibility to avoid drama, because the smaller folks ultimately get shouted down. I hope you and Sylvana - and Sady, too - can all dial it down, mainly for you personal health and happiness, but also because blog drama can has corrosive effects on people's willingness to keep writing (for free!) And I like your blog, so I'd hate to see you retreat from it.
