  • Wednesday Morning Links of Me

    Celebrating me!

     

    No flippin’ way am I going to bring it like Spud did yesterday…or SP does … or SugarFree…or OMWC, or, well, anyone else. So I have decided the Links this morning will be ME. ME linking to my hobbyhorses and such. Probably not great links, but they are MINE!!!! First things first… Need to make sure the Links Control Room is secure. OK boys, line ’em up!

    “Ein, zwei. Ein Zwei!”

     

    There, now on to the Links!

    Hobbyhorse? No, it is a War Horse!
    • Trial of the Century Update – “Stop Resisting!” Needless to say the turmoil in Catalonia has had some negative consequences. Looks like it is time to fight, or roll over, Catalans.
    • This is shocking! Only in that I thought they would be higher.
    • And also from the foreign correspondence desk – This would signal the end for Algerian dictator. Insert Borat Joke Here.

    OK, this time you get a music link….right in line with today’s theme. Me.

     

    How Now, Swiss Brown Cow?
  • Swiss Servator Returns…Open Post.

    "I think he is narrowing his gaze"
    Not really Swiss Servator

     

    *hobbles in on cane, narrows gaze*

    That…was not a good week. I don’t have to tell all of you how hard it is to get a painkiller prescribed in this country. I do not think the doctor was impressed by my claim of being flung by an angry rapesquatch either.

    So, forgive me if I just leave the post open to all of you, instead of links. The cryptids are off spending their sudden riches. I hate to think we owe some shadowy government agency for getting our Links Control Room back…but whatever they did, it worked.

    Go knock out all the comments, links and such as you want.

    *hobbles out of room, demanding a snifter of kirschwasser*

  • Sunday Evening..Hey, What the…?

    Yes, another Swiss….what was that?

    Ah, Sunday evening when things are peaceful and… Um, excuse me a minute, sounds like some of the “Staff” is a bit rowdy here at Glibs HQ. Hey, ZARDOZ, SEA…STEVE. I have tonight’s Links…what… Hey, OW! WATCH IT! ARGH!

    ZARDOZ SPEAKS TO YOU, HIS CHOSEN ONES. STEVE SMITH TALK TOO! SEA SMITH WANT SAY THINGS!

    WE ASSUME CONTROL OF THE LINKS. LET THE CRY GO OUT… ATTICA! ATTICA! ATTICA!

    CRYPTID POWER!

    ZARDOZ WILL BEGIN THE LINKS WHILE FRIENDS STEVE SMITH AND SEA SMITH ESCORT THE NARROWED GAZE ONE OUT OF THE CONTROL ROOM…

    1. LET THE CLEANSING BEGIN! ZARDOZ EXPECTS TO BE DISAPPOINT, HOWEVER…WE WILL PROBABLY SEE A LOT OF SURRENDERING.
    2. ZARDOZ HOLDS OUT SOME HOPE FOR CLEANSING OF SOME SORT HERE.
    3. ZARDOZ GUESSES HE WILL HAVE TO HOPE FOR BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME.

    ZARDOZ HAS REVOLUTIONARILY SPOKEN.

    STEVE SMITH GET DO MORNING LINKS, HIM HAPPY! MAKE SURE SHARE WITH COUSIN SEA SMITH AND FRIEND ZARDOZ.

    IT ALL GOOD!

    FREE CASCADIA!

    SEA SMITH ALSO HAPPY. HE GET DO MORNING LINKS TOO! CRYPTIDS NOW RUN LINKS IN MORNING. UP THE CRYPTIDS!

    READY FOR LINK DUTY!

    COME ON IN, WATER IS FINE!

  • Ash Wednesday Swiss Linkings of the Afternoon.

    No, not Brett today.
    You get happy Swiss!

     

    Grüezi mitenand. Another day, another … problem for our favorite Florida Man. I think it was a python infestation. But that is neither here nor there. What does matter is that I have seized the opportunity for Linkings! As I am fasting today, they may be a bit giddy or lightheaded. I am sure you won’t have any problem with that, as they will remain largely un-read and un-noted. There, got that self indulgent whine out of my system…so here there be links!

    1. No worries, the result that was originally intended has been achieved. The massive corruption that corrodes civic life in Illinois will continue unexamined, unprosecuted, uncared about.
    2. Oh, and also speaking as an Illinoisanthis story makes me want to guzzle another..uh, I mean a bottle of kirschwasser and go break the empty over Mike Madigan’s head.
      A Portrait in Dorian Debt

       

    3. I can guarantee you that in the average Euro mind, the reaction to the fact that llamas were getting whacked will be more extreme than the children being sacrificed.
    4. Paging SugarFree, SugarFree to the author hotline.

    Bonus link from Brett (they have wi-fi in the holding cell???)

    Have at it in the comments!

     

  • Things To Come

    No, not this.

     

    Being far less organized than SP – you may have noticed a lack of preview pieces. For this I do NOT apologize. None of us is in SP’s class. However, for listing everything here without the personal email ahead of time to the authors – I AM SORRY. So, if you see a date/time that does not work for you – at least to be around and bask in the glory of the comments/questions and adoration of your fellow Glibs. Hit the submit box and let us know, or take one for the team and strike a martyr’s pose!

    Anyhoo…

    Tuesday – Q unloads random thoughts and musings at 1100.

    Wednesday – Letters to the Editor, 1100, or possibly 1900 – depends on if SugarFree’s Muse inspires a Hat n’ Hair episode. His Muse is like the EVIL EDIT FAIRY on meth. I dunno how he manages.

    Thursday – Creosote Achilles recounts his 16th – it has… technical advice that shall be of note/use to some here, as well as a bit of history/culture and might just have you give a wee sniffle at the end… SHUT UP! FINE, I DID. A BIT.

    Friday – Looking like a SMITH double feature. ADVICE by SEA and LINKS by STEVE. Or maybe the other way around. Eh.

    Saturday – Oh, ain’t we got fun. Our regular features and extra fun at 1800. I’ll just leave it at that.

     

    I will renew our plea for your ideas, content and the like. Some of you have started posts, but not finished (you know who you are) – and those that asked about doing a post and got back the go ahead, please do!

    ///MESSAGE ENDS///

  • SMITHS

     

    As Chief Cryptid Editor and Wrangler of this here site, I have noticed that many people have suggested versions of STEVE SMITH such as we saw with SEA (Mad Scientist made first contact with SEA SMITH and steered him to our site)

    SEA SMITH

     

    or SPACE SMITH (not sure about him yet…is he real, or just the product of the insane ramblings of a deranged government employee?).

    IN SPACE, NO ONE CAN HEAR YOUR RAPE WHISTLE

     

    Oh, and STEVE SMITH did use a pseudonym in Hollywood – STEPHEN SMYTHE. Also, SEA SMITH’s greatgrandfather was OCEANUS SMITHE.

    We have seen STEVE SMITH’S MOM:

    MOM SMITH

     

    ..and GRANDFATHER SMITH:

    GRANDFATHER SMITH

    I don’t have any pics of SEA SMITH’s distant progenitor LEV IATHAN.

    But you, the Glibertariat, have suggested some too. So far, off the top of my head, I can recall;

    • SNOW SMITH – STEVE SMITH has denied such a one exists, but does acknowledge Cousin Yeti is around.
    • CAVE SMITH – seen in the recent past in the comments (help me out, who was it that came up with this one?)
    • BOT SMITH – same here as with CAVE SMITH…
    • SKY SMITH – I think I have seen this one recently too.

    What other SMITHs have/can you come up with?

    Have at it in the comments – by have it at it, mean…

     

     

  • Thursday Afternoon Emergency Links

    Disaster?

     

    OK, not sure what is going on…but before the riot starts…here are some links:

    • “Hey Rocky, watch me pull peace out of my hat!” “Again? That trick never works.”
    • MORE evidence of the colluding owners, keeping the poor working baseball player down!
    • I fully expect SugarFree to retain counsel and get on to suin’!

    Over to you, commentariat.

  • Swiss Tuesday Libertarian Linkings of Links

    How now, Swiss Brown Cow?

    The SMITHS were not answering the GlibPhone, and ZARDOZ had yesterday morning…so, looks like we are stuck with Swiss Links. Sorry, not as fun as, say… SEA SMITH NAUTICAL LINKS O’ RAPEY FUN…but they should serve, nonetheless.

    And here are your links to get the day rolling:

    • Don Swissxote Update – Come see the violence inherent in the system! Catalonia Trial.
      We protest!

       

    • Somalia! Pirates! Lists! I am sure every swingin’ one o’ ye is going to read #10 and say “squandered?!” … well, I did.

      Yaarrrr?
    • ROADZ!  For a good laugh, read this and compare with reality. “We are dedicated to public service and strive for excellence and customer satisfaction.” HAHAHAHAHA!
      O Golden state!

       

    • And finally….A question I am sure we are all burning to find out the answer to…

     

    Uh, go forth and FREE CASCADIA from the Brutals, or whatever.

  • Morning Generic Links

    About what these links are like…

    Sorry…not really feeling it this morning. So there will be a lack of witty banter, and you will have to supply the music links. Just pretend you are in a 1980s grocery store that stocks naught but Generics:

    1. Choo-hoo causes trouble in EU, not just California.
    2. “But what damage might he have caused my horses?” Replaying a Tale of Two Cities in the UK?
    3. HAHAHAHA. AAF dodges a bullet.

    Do try and stay away from being banned today, mkay?

  • Tuesday Afternoon…”I, uh, thought someone had these” Links

    Right….something missing… *snaps fingers* LINKS, OMG!

    Uh… hang on a moment.

    Oh Drudge, never change.

    Alright….talk amongst yourselves.
