Not in the clamor of the crowded street, not in the shouts and plaudits of the throng, but in ourselves, are triumph and defeat.--Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

REDIRECT ALERT! (Scroll down past this mess if you're trying to read an archived post. Thanks. No, really, thanks.)

Due to my inability to control my temper and complacently accept continued silliness with not-quite-as-reliable-as-it-ought-to-be Blogger/Blogspot, your beloved Possumblog will now waddle across the Information Dirt Road and park its prehensile tail at http://possumblog.mu.nu.

This site will remain in place as a backup in case Munuvia gets hit by a bus or something, but I don't think they have as much trouble with this as some places do. ::cough::blogspot::cough:: So click here and adjust your links. I apologize for the inconvenience, but it's one of those things.

Croix de Grits Update
I HAVE BEEN HAD! It seems another decomposition specialist has been gathering up a bushel of votes unbeknownst to the Rules Committee. One Brother Joseph Zoettl, builder of Ave Maria Grotto, has been dead lo for 40 friggin' years! Is Charles Austin, Sine Qua Non Pundit and nominator of Brother Zoettl, running some sort of Benedictine subconspiracy? Hmmmm.

On the one hand, I am peaved that such a blunder could have befallen me after making such a big deal out of the No Dead Guy Rule, then having to invoke the Calvinball Rules to let in Really Dead Author Lewis Grizzard.

On the other hand, Zoettl is the second highest vote grabber after Dr. Condi.

On yet another han...well, on my hind leg, I wonder why nobody fact-checked this! Ding dernit, this ain't no way for to be running an Axis!!!

In any even, disproving Alex Beam's assertions that no one reads blogs, a quick viewing of the current statistics reveals that an astounding 40 people have voted so far! The tally so far:

1.) Astrophysicist Dr. Thomas Wdowiak 3 8%
2.) Author Florence King 3 8%
3.) Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas 4 10%
4.) The black voters of Mississippi 0 0%
5.) Singer and musician Ray Charles 1 3%
6.) Ave Maria Grotto builder Br. Joseph Zoettl 6 15%
7.) Alabama's Major League Baseball players 1 3%
8.) Pulitzer Prize-winning author Edward O. Wilson 3 8%
9.) Author and really dead guy Lewis Grizzard 2 5%
10.) National Security Advisor Condoleeza Rice 17 43%

If you have not voted, please be sure to do so. Unless you're part of the Illuminati of Avignon.
