Yeah, I basically completely misquoted you there, and made some completely unfounded assumptions. Sorry ’bout that. Do you have a category for people who do that?

Not to be a Picky Primate, but the only category that is based on frequency of blogging is the Malingering Macaque. Primates of the Past blog about history. Bonobos in Space blog about SF. Comedy Chimps do humor. And so on. No doubt I was unclear.

However, I am still reeling, and thinking about my brother’s broadside.

I’m trying to recall….isn’t March 2 another significant celebration day in the Mahoney household? If so, many happy returns, Joe! If not, many happy returns anyway, Joe!

Comment on CBC Releases Official Blogging (etc) Policy by A plea to end media hypocrisy – Fagstein

A plea to end media hypocrisy – Fagstein — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 07:44:28 +0000

[...] I'm not calling for a free-for-all where everyone's telling off their bosses or putting company secrets on their blogs. There are things it is perfectly understandable to demand journalists keep to themselves. When I worked at The Gazette, for example, I accepted that it would be inappropriate for me to be leaking internal documents, airing my personal employee grievances, breaking embargoes or posting office gossip.

Thanks, Joe! Gotta like a blogger who takes requests! Must be a throwback to your late night DJ days at CJRW. Keep spinning out the classics, Joe!

I’m wondering, Joe, if this is some post-event revising you’ve done, or did you have the girls’ names picked out in order so that the first one born would be Keira and the second one Erin? I’m a little fascinated by the whole parenting of twins thing and just curious. For most of us, it’s “if it’s a boy it’s Fritz and if it’s a girl, it’s Suki” (or something less interesting). When you’ve got two names for two baby girls, how do you choose which one gets which?
