that I was a "sexy revelation". Or at least, one sexy revelation among many. And now I know it's true. I love all the ladies on that list, too. Rockin' chicks, all of them.
Thank you, Dean! And after I posted that stupid eyeball story today!
I had already discerned this one all on my own, red.

The first phrase of your comment made me smile. "I don't know that you need more encouragement..." Please stop, before I have to start going through doors sideways due to the size of my head.
Thank you for the compliment ... But I do have to put this in, and it's not just because I've met her and had a couple brews with her: Emily Jones is one high-class writer. She's one of the first bloggers I ever read. What I like about her is that yeah, she's pissed off about stuff - but her writing is FUNNY. It's fun to read. It's not just ranting.
One of her most recent posts, a very brief letter to Willie Nelson, says it all.

Posted by: red at January 8, 2004 09:50 AMI especially appreciated Emily's review of Stephen Dorril's "MI6", which is actually at blogcritics and not on her site - I wouldn't have known about it, as I don't read blogcritics all that often, but for an oblique reference in one of her posts. But you have the Ukraine, and Uzbekistan, and John Adams... and Turkmenistan, and Croatia(!)...
Posted by: CW at January 8, 2004 10:46 AMI'm also a lunatic.
Posted by: red at January 8, 2004 10:48 AMlunatic? now that's an understatement
Posted by: Jim at January 8, 2004 11:12 AMI don't read Blogcritics all that often either ... should check it out more.
Posted by: red at January 8, 2004 11:19 AMOf course you're a lunatic: I never once managed to get the Historic Lunatics Quiz to produce Charles VI of France, no matter what variations I plugged in. Didn't everyone (but you) wind up as either Ludwig of Bavaria or Caligula?
Too much sanity is boring. I'm fairly sure I remember the Surgeon General saying it was hazardous to my health. Which reminds me that I've always wondered why the Surgeon GENERAL appears to wear a NAVAL uniform: shouldn't the title be Surgeon Admiral then? Hmmmm...and then why doesn't the Attorney General have a uniform?
These are some of the things I think about, so I'm sure it comes as no surprise that you're hardly alone in your lunacy.
