Kathy, you're poaching in Hinderaker's fish pond, no?

:-)

I wish I could leave it to Hinderaker. Or any of the other Minnesota blogs. This guy is seriously nuts! And now that he's got a radio show, well...the chances for slander are high.

Long story short: there is Minnesota Organization of Blogs blogroll. I'm on it. He's systematically going through these blogs and reaming them on-air. I refuse to listen to his show, so I'm assuming if he decides to slam my blog on-air, I will find out about it after the fact. That's the only reason I'm paying attention, so I can defend my "good" (ha!) name if he does so.

This is also why I'm posting on this stuff over here---not at my blog. (Nick has already proven himself not to be the best of web searchers) I'm a big fat chicken, I know. But I've got people who are willing to pay cold hard cash to hassle me---I already take crap from so many people and Nicky isn't going to join their number if I have anything to say about it.

;)

I know the feeling, sort of. I regularly slam O-Dub and James Wolcott, but I am uncomfortable doing so because they can send over trolls by the dozen. (Well, I'm not so sure about Wolcott could, but anyone who is reading O-Dub for insight into life is clearly disturbed). I feel unclean even blogging about them, because when I do finally get them annoyed enough to unleash the trolls, I know I will face raining-down buckets of abuse like King Arthur at the walls of the French castle in Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
