#6 Thanks for the mention.

While other bloggers in the Deck have suggested they merited a higher card, none have been more justified than Rantburg. My apologies.

Did you see the Blogosphere map I did in late November? Maybe in a couple months, I'll do something else along these lines, and will be sure to give Rantburg due prominence.

#7 If people would stop posting articles and return to ABC and friends for their news "on the half hour" and if people would quit posting comments that clarify, name names, call a spade a spade, then Rantburg could just die on the vine.

#8 Yes! Lucky... think of the fiddler crab gangs.... instead of waving a claw they could wave a camera or a tiny Free Lunch banner.

#11 Praise Allah! I have 10 lbs. green peanuts fall upon my abode! Singh Ho! and Pass the seasoning meat! The way of the peanut is clear.

Truly my friend. Your words carry the strength of camel sputum, for you are indeed blessed in the eyes He Who Goes Behind The Tent.

#13 With a little more pithy-ness and smartassery, Rantburg could problably achieve hold 'em status instead of a hard hand.

#14 It is good to be wise. It is better to have peanuts boiling.

I do herbie release the above into the marketplace of ideas, no strings attached.

#15 It is good to be wise. It is better to have peanuts boiling.

But is roasting not better than boiling in infidelic water?

#16 Charles.... if that's you're real name... roasting a green peanie is a sin....

#21 Congratulations, Fred.
I see Jenny from Greatest Jenneration, a frequent Rantburg commentor, is the 10 of hearts. Good for you lady.

#22 Looks like it's time to bare our fangs and boost Fred's ratings. He probably wouldn't mind a few PayPal visits either.

#23 Cheers, Gasse Katze! It was quite an honor and to be in such august and revered company as Rantburg, too.
I am confounded by Shipman's Religion of Peanut, however.
Tell us more!
