 September 21, 2006Self-Importance Post #2Self-importance week continues here at TenFingers6Strings. It is already a success, since I've continued to keep posting furiously without an Instapundit link for another day. I am the Fuel Cell/Solar generated blog to the crude oil suckers in abstract, roundish encompass that contains blogs. Continuing with my theme this week, I will refer to myself in the third person, "Self," when I am portraying greatess while maintain a humble spirit, projecting pain and suffering in a martyrdomish-like way, or when it is convenient. I say "martyrdomish" because to the Western mind, this word actually has taken on its orginal connotation in recent years. Maybe "dramaqueen" is more apt, but I'm seriously not gay even though I'm wearing a purple shirt today. So, my last post elicited some fantastic comments. First, there is my buddy Rick, who continues to be the Robin to my Batman, in the sense that he and I both wear our underwear on the outside of our pants when we surf the Internet. Rick, dammit, the brilliance of this blog should have inspired you so deeply, that you couldn't help but find a way to get your own blog. You could then link to this one everyday. You could be kind of like Instapundit, except you only link to me, and tell everyone to read the whole thing. You can start a blogwar with Andrew Sullivan if you want too, because I hate that guy. I was also able to lure my good friend Anthony Perez-Miller out from his hiatus. I'm always leery of having Anthony come around because his grasp of geopolitics makes me look like the spawn of Senn Penn and Mr. Furley--and he also has a hyphenated last name. That either makes him a lesbian (I guess since he has a wife, he's kind of like a lesbian who has to shave in the morning, but I repeat myself), or one of those really smart guys whose name will look really cool on a policy article he's written. Next, we've found another reader, increasing my readership from five people to six (20%)! Wait a minute, my editor is telling me not to mention my traffic. Self is telling me to make myself a martyr to gain pity from kind hearted souls. Everyone, please welcome Lynn! Lynn has a great site with lots of posts about music, which is something I thought I would be doing a lot more of by this point in my illustrious blogging career. I might be known as a "Renassiance man," but I'm not an omni-blogger. Regardless, Lynn has inspired me to write some more about a subject that I actually care about. Loyal readers, go read Lynn, and don't forget to quote me in your comments to her. It will make you sound much smarter, funnier and if you have height issues, maybe even a little taller. Until my next post, keep me in your thoughts and dreams. It'll will improve your confidence, your demeanor and outlook on life. Think of it as a Tony Robbins DVD on the cheap.
Comments
Remember, I had two last names even when single. 'Course, it did take a court petition, but that is a whole nother story. Speaking of being single: would identifying oneself as a "male lesbian" help with picking up progressive chicks? Might be worth a try. You could even keep the purple shirt.

My own site will unfortunately remain mostly fallow until I start boring people to tears with dissertation excerpts late in the fall.) Posted by: Anthony Perez-Miller at September 21, 2006 12:21 PMI recommend climbing Everest....on fire. Posted by: Ian Wood at September 21, 2006 02:18 PMThanks. I write about various things but mostly I just link to stuff so people will keep coming back even when I don't have anything interesting to say. Posted by: Lynn at September 22, 2006 06:44 AMMake that eight readers, you pity-hound. And enjoy your time in San Deigo. It's fall here in Ky now.
