Okay folks. I don’t make any money on this stupid blog. So I don’t mind using it for self promotion now and again. If just 1 in 10 of you vote for me on Valleywag’s hot blogger competition I can secure my place. I’m 2nd place right now, and it’s going to be a very…
Mickipedia’s Micki Krimmel (Queen of Revver) is losing “The Silent Air Guitar Challenge” deathmatch. If you love online video, you have a personal responsibility to vote for her. You can watch her entry, but it might just confuse you. Just vote for her. She won’t spend her winnings on crack. That being said, if you’re…

Dear readers, I don’t ask much from you. Free blog, no advertising. But I need your vote for the Valleywag “hot boys” contest. I’m getting my ass kicked.
