As I was skimming posts on here, I noticed the many complaints about blog pimps. My own blog is not at all political, so breathe a sigh of relief, you won't see me posting any articles on here from it. :)

But, sometimes when I get a down moment, I like to see what others have written.

So, if you have a blog, feel free to post your link and what it's about here.

People have long wondered why socks seem to go missing in the dryer. This disappearance of socks has frustrated many people over the years. Recently, however, it has been discovered that the culprits are not people's dryers indiscriminately eating socks (as it had been thought), but instead evil sock-stealing gnomes who sneak into dryers and steal the socks. These gnomes keep the stolen socks in large communal collections. Recently, one such large collection, numbering 568,093,286,257,093 socks was found hidden in...

Sorry, I can't go along with this. I mean, seriously, what do you think you are throwing in the garbage when you dump the lint filter? That's socks baby!

That should be on a blog somewhere, maybe even morphed into and endless saga.

Then posted, two lines at a time...excerpted.

Glad you enjoyed it Vendome.

Actually, that is fluffy lint from the gnomes’ sweaters that gets caught in the dryer when the gnomes are sneaking in to steal the socks. ;-)

LOL.

Reminds me of . . . Laz’s narratives.

Nice. I can’t wait to hear the rest.

It's not pretty. It starts with hg getting B*slapped by the owner for harassing eyeblast.tv and you know what they say...S*** rolls downhill!

Huh? This would be worse than when Jaws came out. I know folks that have never been back in the surf since. Can you imagine how many women would never go back in the washroom? No, this has to be TOP SECRET!

[houeto]

Lots of applause!!

Thanks.

[DeoVindiceSicSemperTyrannis]

this has to be TOP SECRET!

At least until the evil gnomes are DESTROYED. We must destory them! Any ideas?

[DeoVindiceSicSemperTyrannis]

The gnomes. They are evil.

Say whut?

An icon suspended? Please say it isn’t so!

It was about 0330 when the alarms went off at the Pimp Intel Mapping Patrol HQ, Texas.

I sat up and shook the mouse to wake up my system.
Someone had emptied my ashtray. I like that.
Through the glass I could see the techs on duty shifting over to Alert mode on
their Free Republic PimpScan monitoring systems.

I hoped this wasn’t another false alarm. I was tired.
We’d had four just this week. Better safe than sorry but the alerts that
don’t amount to anything always happen in the middle of the night.

My system fired up and I saw mail and posts to me. Things weren’t quiet.
Opening my Freepmail, I could see immediately that a dozen or so were
directed at a single thread. A hot spot for sure. An opportunity to bust a
pimp or a false alarm. Maybe some other interesting issue. Or nothing.

I’ll admit I hesitated. I sighed and got up and padded into the mess hall
and fired up the coffee. I could see that this wouldn’t be a quick fix given
the number of alerts. I lit a cigarette. All this took maybe a minute.

If that.

As I opened the thread, I shot an email to the techs on duty and those in
the field letting them know that we were on it, and review would commence.

Lamenting the fact that I hadn’t got my coffee yet and resigned to the
fact the I was up for the duration, I put on my Titanium Alloy Cyber Helmet
and plugged the USB into the console. I was in, like it or not.

The TACH, or Titanium Alloy Cyber Helmet, allows us to immerse ourselves
into the thread and uses information gathered from a variety of sources to
simulate accurately the physical form of the attackers and the allies.

It looks like HALO or DOOM. With better intel.

Sometimes this doesn’t work so well and a pimp or group of pimps manage
to use modifications or propaganda to defeat us. This is rare.
I hoped we weren’t under attack by a professional pimp squad.

My HUD showed three pimps on the forum but only one on the thread
we’d been alerted to. No cross-talk, which was good. Probably lone
pimps, working small-time.

The first ping I read was a generic alert.
The rest were red like fire with a pimp screaming about his rights.
Screaming from behind his excerpt wall while his hit counter racked
up stolen hits.
This pimp seemed quite vocal but lacking in firepower.
Screaming bloody murder, he was.

I eat excerpt walls for lunch. This looked easy, I’d be back in the
bunk in time to watch Sea Hunt. I asked the pimp:
“Why not just post it here?”
I find this to be a polite question.

The pimp went crazy.

The pimp then unleashed his trap, a strike force of undercover pimps
who had been laying low and biding their time. Sneaky pukes.
Apparently he pinged them all, because suddenly I was surrounded
by at least eighteen rabid pimps with death in their eyes.

I saw them converge on the thread...
