Will I make the Internet explode and die if I respond on my blog to Zac’s response to Michael Davis’ response to Jim Schutze’s response to Joyce Foreman’s blog post?

Back in the Land Before Blogs, people were known by what they did. Now for the price of a cup of coffee, everyone has their own, personal, bully pulpit. Feh. I’m gonna go put on some Hai Karate and listen to 8 tracks.
@ 12:50 pm on August 4, 2008
IOW, please use your own blog. Be damned the results.

These are the exact kinds of mighty winds that have been known to cause brief power outages in the Woodrow area.

Michael Davis blogs truth. Jim Schutze blogs to blog. Joyce Foreman blogs tabloid (information based on rumor or pure speculation).
NOTHING. EVER. GETS. FINISHED. IN DALLAS.
@ 1:49 pm on August 4, 2008
Including sentences, apparently.
@ 1:56 pm on August 4, 2008
Michael Davis shouldn’t HAVE to stoop to the level of what’s-her-faces-blog. But like all truth seekers, he’s pissed some folks off.
Nice analysis, Bethany…
@ 2:05 pm on August 4, 2008
Can we just hug it out now?
@ 2:07 pm on August 4, 2008
Oh god yes please.
@ 2:17 pm on August 4, 2008
Can we get a link on SideDish to this, pleeeeez?
@ 2:48 pm on August 4, 2008
You’re wanting to hug Daniel that badly, Towski?
@ 3:19 pm on August 4, 2008
Who isn’t?
Desperation. It’s the loneliest cologne.
@ 3:30 pm on August 4, 2008
Are you sure that distinction doesn’t go to Sex Panther by Odeon? It’s illegal in nine countries… Yep, it’s made with bits of real panther, so you know it’s good.
@ 3:39 pm on August 4, 2008
I’m going to be honest with you. That smells like pure gasoline.
@ 3:41 pm on August 4, 2008
They’ve done studies, you know. 60% of the time it works, every time.
@ 3:42 pm on August 4, 2008
Man, I think Zac just comment blocked me.
@ 3:51 pm on August 4, 2008
Poor Towski. Do you need a hug? Where’s Daniel?
@ 3:53 pm on August 4, 2008
That’s ok, Bethany. You’ve succesfully fulfilled my craving human contact quotient for the day.
@ 4:00 pm on August 4, 2008
Actually, if you parse their literature, the panther stuff gives you a 60 percent success rate on each individual encounter. Meaning that 100% of the time a woman will laugh at precisely three of your awkward jokes and precisely twice she will run her fingernails coyly along your spine and precisely once she will lightly kiss your jaw before going to a ladies’ room from which she never returns.
And for the price they’re asking? So, in short, Towski come hither. You naughty b1tch, you.
@ 4:44 pm on August 4, 2008
P.S. The price the cologne retailers are asking — not the women. Christ, people, as if the Panther experience hasn’t humiliated me enough already. No hookers for this boy.
P.P.S. Interestingly, if you buy the panther stuff, you keep getting direct mail offers for something called Blueballbegone.

So in Michael Davis’ blog post he bitterly complains that the DO didn’t quote him in its story on Royce West. Since I wrote that story, I can tell you that we quoted several people, from both parties, practically canonizing the state Senator.
I didn’t quote Davis, however, because he didn’t say anything interesting or insightful. From the look of his most recent blog post, he hasn’t changed.

I’m not bitter Pulle. I’m having a ball. You aren’t even here anymore, but glad you checked in. Sorry you couldn’t hang in the great state of Texas.
