Lori, I'm just making fun of my own material, like I did in my second post.
As a rule everyone please, assume I am not making fun of anyone here whenever I post.
Also your guess is good, but not accurate.

Well, I was going to suggest "Beat Generation" as the common thread, but I'm still unsure.

A handy guide to the subject lines for this round:
Like, Real Gone, Daddy-O
Don't Leave Me Hangin' on the Telephone
Collaborative Theatre with Irrational Actors
Natural Deselection
'Round Midnight
The rule common to all of those will be the answer.

Are they all lines out of 70's songs? I know some of them are, but I don't know about all of them...
I can't wait to see SOaP!!! God, it'll be so awesome! I hear Samuel L. Jackson might curse! He's the best curser! *swoon*
Oh, wait. I was taking back sarcasm, not irony. Nevermind.

Well, I obviously never got around to any poetry over the last week, due to too much reading and not enough sleeping. And to make up for that, here's some fun for everyone. Go »Cardinal Sins of the Blogosphere
Hey, is this thing on? I realize that blogging is meant to give everyone a picture of the blogger's ongoing life, but to be frank, I haven't really had one of those in awhile. Between exams reading, doing minor administrative work for a department working group, working up a course proposal for Fall '08, and complaining about much of the above I haven't gotten so much done.

It strikes me that one of the great untapped ideas for a Web doohickey would be a Groundskeeper Willie Insult Generator. Given the sheer amount of Simpsons geekery online, you'd think at least one of those Cheeto-gorging leet-speakers would have worked out a word bank and a java program to generate an endless string of phrases in the form "[NOUN]-[VERB]ing [NOUN]-[VERB]er" by now.

Hi, all! This will be the second blog I've authored and the fourth blog with which I've been involved as an author, and I still haven't really worked out just what to say in these introductory posts. As most of you know, though, I'm wordy enough once I get rolling that content shouldn't be a problem. Go »Imaginary Exploits of a Hairpiece Gone Mad
I stop blogging for a week to read up on political theology, and the world goes awry: planets vanish from the heavens, fantasy football gains a stereotypically "feminine" counterpart, and America's children become catastrophically dumber. And the worst of it is, I haven't really got much to post about in my life, unless someone here is up for a discussion of Walter Benjamin's metaphor of the automaton and the dwarf, which is nowhere near as funny as the dirty joke you probably just made up while reading that phrase. (See, there's this chess-playing automaton, and it represents historical materialism, but the machine is animated by a hidden dwarf who represents theology....oh, Go »
