loudtwitter.com set all this up for me.
As most of you know, I've been keeping a blog on iwilldare.com for over nine years. It's a lot of content -- 7,193 posts (and that's not included the hundreds of posts I deleted, mostly about sandwiches and what a fuckwit my boss Shakey McDougal was) and 18,198 comments.
In the last year I've noticed a new trend, e-mails from people begging me to delete some asinine comment they made back in 2002. It seems all those annoying teenagers who had a lot to say about Donnie Darko and being bored in study hall have discovered the Internet has a long memory. Now, when they Google themselves (or their e-mail addresses) they're embarrassed to discover that something they said on a website five years ago is the #1 result.
Ha!
I'm of two minds when it comes to deleting the comments. Part of me thinks I should just delete them and be done with it. It doesn't take a lot of time, and most of the time the comment is not a great loss to the Internet. Of course, the other part of me is all, "Suck it up, loser. I refuse to edit my website because you were an obnoxious 15-year-old, let this be a lesson to you!"
What would you do?
One hundred years ago today the fastest pacing race horse of the day, DAN PATCH, ran his last race. Dan was fleet footed and quick as hell. You can watch his story - The Great Dan Patch at the Internet Archive.

Wow. The title of this book is too long for blog header title...
Letters from a cat: published by her mistress for the benefit of all cats and the amusement of little children (Helen Hunt Jackson: 1880, c1879).
but the printing was pretty bad, and they were signed by
Pussy's name ; and my mamma always
looked very mysterious when I asked about
them, as if there were some very great
secret about it all ; so that until I grew
to be a big girl, I never doubted but that
Pussy printed them all alone by herself,
after dark.
I haven't read it yet, I did leaf through it yesterday and was so enchanted, but I didn't have the time to actually read it, but now it's first on my list
