This is a call for support, take a look at USS Ben's latest post - a man who did serve his country tells what he did and didn't have in mind when doing it. Leave him an encouraging comment, the flies are already landing.
Ricky Raccoon, Glad you're enjoying Richard Mitchell. That site has his 4 books (all top notch) as well as the Underground Grammarian newsletters.
What's fascinating to watch in the newsletters is the creeping realization he has that what started out as a way of tweaking and shaming sloppy administrators and professors became a dawning realization of a 'tentacular' evil spreading out from its roots in Academe.
That, and he can be Gagdadishly laugh out loud funny (careful eating and reading him too!).
Thanks for the compliment, I'm glad you're finding them of interest.
I've been meaning to organize this blog a bit, but I suppose it's a bit like the ace mechanic who's cars are all clunkers - when I get home from work, working on software as opposed to using software, doesn't get me much going.

Thanks for the heads-up Van. I took my fly swatter over there.
Thanks Van!
I'm all shook up. :^)
Mizze-
I'm willing to bet you're a Master of Fly Swatter Foo!
Not to mention the physics involved! Ha ha!
Ricky-
Thanks! You're real too! Hee hee!

But if you're going to go to the trouble of reading them, the least I can do is make it a bit easier. Here's the links to the series:
Ad Hominem Ad Hominem Ad Infinitum Part 1
Behind the Ad Hominem's stand the... (Updated 8/12/2006)pt2
The Low Hanging Fruit - pt 3
The Trees That Bare The Barren Fruit - pt 4
Would you trust a liar who told you he was going to lie to you? - pt 5
Spreading The Flames - Part 6
What never was and never will be - Modern Madness Part 7
Maybe I'll use that as a start for a "Greatest Hits" sidebar (seems a wee bit pretentious for a blog that isn't even a year old yet though).
Anyway, I hope they pay off for you - the possibility makes my day.
(If Richard Mitchell could see my typo's & grammar... he'd walk off with Prometheus [from the 'Gift of Fire'])
Ricky Raccoon said "I hope I wasn’t being critical..."
No worries Ricky. I've been meaning to use those labels blogger has now... it's just a matter of getting around to it. Maybe this weekend.
BTW I liked your poem in yesterdays OC - that was a keeper.
