This is my second post today about the upcoming 2008 presidential election. (The first one was here. It was a long one.) As if that alone didn’t prove my claim to be “the go-to guy for 2008 blogging,” I’ve also made this patriotic “APOSTROPHE 08″ theme graphic, which will adorn all of my posts about the ‘08 election, for the next four years or so. Or until I make a different one.
My goal, as I’ve said, is to help the American electorate make an informed decision. I have time to take a few questions at this point.
BUT SEAN, I THOUGHT YOU SAID YOUR GOAL WAS, QUOTE, “TO BE INVITED TO ONE OF THE 2008 CONVENTIONS, AS ONE OF THOSE CELEBRITY BLOGGERS,” UNQUOTE. SO WHICH IS IT?
I’ve had one consistent position on this issue. It’s nuanced. Next question.
IS THERE ANY WAY I CAN HELP?
Yes. We can help each other. I’ll keep blogging about the 2008 elections, and you link to me. I’ve created a special “2008″ category, which will contain all my “APOSTROPHE 08!” posts. You can link to that category, like so: “Sean Gleeson is the go-to guy for 2008 blogging.”
Or you could link to the individual posts themselves. Thusly: “Sean Gleeson, the go-to guy for 2008 blogging, wrote this here post.” Do that, and you get yourself a trackback! Manus manum lavat, eh what?
BUT SEAN, WHAT IF I THINK YOU’RE A TOTAL IDIOT?
No problem. In that case, just link to me in this manner: “This total idiot has appointed himself the go-to-guy for 2008 blogging. He even wrote this idiotic post about it. What an idiot, let us jape at him, etc.” Yes, it’s that easy, and you get a trackback, too.
WHEN I LINK TO YOU, MAY I USE YOUR PATRIOTIC “APOSTROPHE 08!” THEME GRAPHIC? RIGHT OFF YOUR SERVER, WITHOUT COPYING IT TO MINE?
Sure, go ahead.
