    The War is Over

    Dear Blogosphere,

    It's Monday. I'm still breathing. Charlie Sykes must still be waiting for my new cement shoes to dry... But wait, what is this???

    Is that thing for real?


    You heard it here second, folks (because I know you went to Charlie first)! The New Berlin wall has crumbled! Charlie Sykes has put me on his blogroll, putting an end to hostilities in the Cheddarsphere. You can once again sleep at night and play in the streets. Be careful on the north side, though.

    You've got to wonder if this was a coincidence, or a subtle hint to a certain blogger:

    Yes, it is subject to change; but it does reflect the sites that I try to look at regularly.

    I'll take it as a hint that I'm on a very short leash. Besides, Charlie has just put an end to my best material. That Sykes is a clever guy. But, I'm two steps ahead of him.

    Now that Charlie has granted what has been my lifelong wish for the past month, I'm going to have to find a new purpose in life. I think that I've already found one. Expect to see something on it soon!

    Hugs and kisses,
    Aaron

    P.S. Thank you very much, Charlie. I promise not to screw up for at least 24 hours!

    P.P.S. Thanks to all the bloggers who commented here and wrote their own blogs of support. Patrick and Belle, I know that in your hearts you really wanted to see me on the Sykes blogroll.

    Guess I'm the tester of those cement shoes (glug glug glug).

    Ouch, Steve!

    Maybe your sticky post got you whacked. It took me a while to realize that you were posting new material.

    You should keep it, though. Move it to a link on the side bar, and make it nice and bold!

    That must've been it. Charlie found me quickly after I posted Erratic is my middle name.

    Well, Sykes is out the $20 I offered him to keep you off the list...

    Patrick, you fool.

    You shouldn't have posted your bid amount. :)

    Hey; where's my money for testing out the Sykes Cement Shoes? :-)

    Congratulations!...

    But what I think you meant to say is "The Battle is Over". Make sure you stay in the war. Charlie can always realign his blogroll at any time.

    I just wanted to see you squirm and pout because you didn't make the cut! ;-) Congrats again

    This blog is for your amusement as much as it is for mine.

    Has anyone else tried to figure out what the space 2/3 down the blogroll is for?

    Congrats, Aaron. Looks like your e-mail worked.

    The white space? My guess is an invisible message from Karl Rove. New each day. Just a guess.

    I know what that white space is, but I'm not saying. No, torture won't work (I already took the long ride off the short pier), but I do take American Express :-)

    The bidding starts at $20 (hey, I have taxes to pay after buying a James Wigderson autograph).

    And I wasn't talking about the fake one that Jib's shilling either.

    Proof positive that if you bitch and moan long enough... anything is possible.

    Looks like steve is just a tease!

    The white space is where he hides the bodies. Right, Steve?

    So, you're saying I need to stop reading the liberal blogs?
