The Funny Farm

No Respect

^{Sunday, 1 Promise (AfterLithe), 2005}

Sheesh! You might think that an original song parody with some clever wordplay and topical referents to the Project For a New American Gulag and Ditto Monkees would be enough to generate accolades from our fellow compatriots of progressive bloggy goodness.*

You might even think that an attempt at a reasonable discourse with a member of the faith based community would set off waves of support from those who are bemused and amused by that sector of the population these days.

You might actually even think that a mention of this year's Blogathon would be sufficient to generate interest and possibly some linkage to report on this upcoming event.

But, you'd be wrong.**

We are reasonably certain that, now that we have resorted to blatantly shilling our latest contributions to the Fashionable Left Bank of Blogistan, we will receive some sort of recognition within our own little circle of awareness. Especially since we have also taken an unprecedented step and sent some emails out to our fellow bloggers asking them to please take a look at our humble offerings and let us know if they are worthy of recognition (or perhaps a link or two?)***.

If we had the technology we'd put an mp3 of our song available for download on our site****. We still might if we can get our dren together one of these days. But we still think that it should be running around other sets of synapses because they can't get it out of their heads too. So we're going to point to what we consider to be one of our better efforts, as well as the rest of the magically delicious mind candy available within this web site. And hope that our belief in the fantasticality of our postings will become more prevalent within progressive zones in the Fashionable Left Bank of Blogistan

* - as a matter of fact, we had to take the unprecedented step of begging a select few of our fellow bloggers just so that they would come over and check it out. And they to a one have been kind enough to honor my shameless plea for recognition within their very own pages.

Just thought you might like to know...

** - aside from all of those who were wise enough to link to this post in response to a shameless plea for recognition from a select cadre of blogistic resources..

*** - except for all of those wise and noble bloggers who were brave enough to link to this post between the initial draft of this post and its' publication.

**** - shameless plea for early retirement: we'd really like it to take off on the charts and be played from every radio station in the world on a long enough basis to ensure that we don't have to work another day in our life. But, being a member of the reality-based community we realize that it ain't gonna be happenning any day soon...
