From the comments:

What happens to the prosecution's case when the accuser pleads the 5th?


Now that's what I call Fitzmas.

#2 Beagle at 6:13 pm on Dec 20, 2006

Ahahahahahahaha! I wish I could have all the wasted time back. That was more important than plate tectonics to the Donks for over a year. And not a single MSM outlet will ever acknowledge their repeated overhyped stories or flat-out absurd editorials. And they continue to treat blogs like herpes. What's worse than hubris?

And not to pat my own back, because other people saw it coming as well, but I knew Wilson did more to "out" his wife than all the other major players put together. Both of them crave the spotlight.

Throbert and Spiny, please give the hat tip in your first comment, let's keep the hippo headlines short and to the point. (ev and I wrote a post about care and feeding of the hippo :-)

The slide's slow? I'll turn the water hose on.

Wheeeee!!!

It's all fun and games till somebody pees in the pool.

One of my pet peeves in the Aegean. Which, granted, is not a pool but it's not exactly huge either. When one million Greeks and another three million Turks stand in the sea and pee from June to August, it sure feels like a pool.

#14 franco cbi at 9:40 pm on Dec 20, 2006

It's just a slightly bigger version of Lake Titicaca, at sea level.

#15 evariste at 9:42 pm on Dec 20, 2006

Admit it, you just wanted to say Titicaca.

Actually I don't see why a hat tip is even necessary, when the link goes to the site that is "tipped".

I think hat tips are only necessary when you link to an article on one blog that you found via a different blog.

The Tagalog word for "penis" is "titi", BTW.

Good point.

#19 franco cbi at 9:47 pm on Dec 20, 2006

And if you find an article on a blog that refers to a single news article or opinion piece, just link to the latter article/piece, and give the former blog a hattip.

Throbert's most recent hippolink was a special case because of the graphic.

#20 Spiny Norman at 10:08 pm on Dec 20, 2006

Allahpundit's headline was shorter than anything I could think of, so I put "HotAir" in the headline because it was his (it was a quote) and I didn't want to even feel like I was plagiarizing something.

And yes, I had read the post about no hat tips in headlines, but this was meant to be read as a quote. Sorry.

#21 evariste at 10:11 pm on Dec 20, 2006

Death to Spiny Norman! Death by Snoo-snoo!

#22 evariste at 10:13 pm on Dec 20, 2006

Anyway, you're forgiven, but next time, it's down the trap door and into the alligator tank for you, pal.

#23 joem at 10:15 pm on Dec 20, 2006

Hippos are far more dangerous than alligators, dontcha know.

#24 evariste at 10:17 pm on Dec 20, 2006

What about alligators with frikkin' laser beams?

Look what you did to him, Lewis! Look at this! You and your damn rules! You made Spiny feel bad! I hope you can sleep tonight, Lewis, you old meanie!

Wilson needs to get a damn haircut.

Yeah, Lewis! What a typical PC nanny you've turned out to be, trying to squelch freedom of speech because it might offend someone.

See, I took notice of the new rules, but decided in my last link to post a "YouTube video" in the title hat tip anyway. It's similar to warning people of a PDF link before clicking. Or so I was thinking.

Did I do alright?

:)

#31 evariste at 10:24 pm on Dec 20, 2006

Yes! Definitely warn of video. Also, Spiny Norman is hereby retroactively absolved. It shall be as if this never happened. You are forbidden to mention this incident to Spiny Norman ever. Bloggie is a merciful bloggie.

I stole that from the Jewish idea that you're forbidden to remind a convert of their non-Jewish past, which I thought was really nice :-)

Especially since it was all Lewis's fault anyway.

Orwell would be proud.

We're burning all his books because it's too dangerous, he gives away the game. "Bloggie is at war with Uzbekistan. Bloggie has always been at war with Uzbekistan."

Two weeks later: "Uzbekistan has always been our greatest ally. Death to the treacherous Micronesians, our eternal enemy!"

#37 Spiny Norman at 10:29 pm on Dec 20, 2006

Ah! Thank you kind sirs (and madame).

I don't EVEN want to know what the Bloggie Gulag is like.

Actually, it's more of a "pop open" since it's got a cork, not a screw-top.

Yeah you laugh now, but one morning you might wake up with a Greek monk standing over your bed throwing things at you. Ask ev, he's seen it on tv!

Chung Mee: Opium is my business. The bridge mean more traffic. More traffic mean more money. More money mean more power.

Lawrence Bourne III: Yeah, well, before I commit any of that to memory, would there be anything in this for me?

Chung Mee: Speed is important in business. Time is money.

Lawrence Bourne III: You said opium was money.

Chung Mee: Money is Money.

Lawrence Bourne III: Well then, what is time again?

#46 evariste at 10:37 pm on Dec 20, 2006

LMAO! Yes I have. Also, the Greek monk wants you to kiss his wrinkly, gnarly hand. The same one he uses to worship St. Onan with.

#47 evariste at 10:41 pm on Dec 20, 2006

Nope. You're off scot-free, like a British fake refugee claimant!

Meaning, you might even get compensated for the blow to your civil rights. Not to mention mental anguish - and, of course, humiliation.

I may need to rethink just how scot-free Spiny Norman is off. I certainly don't intend to pay him for his anguish.

Spiny, do you accept invisible checks?

#54 evariste at 10:47 pm on Dec 20, 2006

Lewis's was better. I'm glad to see I'm not the only disgusting pervert in the house at this hour.
