| 3:11am | So a butler, a seleção, and a data entity walk into a blog post | | | | And the owner of of the blog says, “What the hell kind of introductory paragraph am I supposed to make from this?” Sadly enough, I haven’t been popular enough to have any rumors of my blogging death to greatly exaggerate (in the Mark Twain fashion) – perhaps this is due to the... | | |
