Anyway, Dan just e-mailed to check to see if I had a typo in the title of my recent C.J. post, "The Vise Tightens Around Charles Johnson!" I actually had "The Vice Tightens Around Charles Johnson!," and I never thought twice about it. I make these kinds of mistakes pretty commonly, and it doesn't bother me too much. I blog on my own. I don't write-up first drafts in Microsoft Word. I go straight to the Blogger dashboard and have at it. Sometimes I misspell words, or I make significant typos without even noticing. It's my nihilist commenters who normally point out these lapses, since they can't get me on the hot neocon analysis! So I guess that's like throwing a few scraps to the dogs! Anyway, checking over at Dan's blog, it turns out he's pimping for some traffic with some Ali Larter hotness! See, "In Case You’re Casting Aphrodite ..." I'm out of the loop on Ali Larter, so checking her Wikipedia entry we find this hot pic available at the Wikimedia Commons. It turns out that the low-cut style is pretty much Ali's modus operandi:
So, all of this reminds me that I need to hire a copy editor. Hot neocon credentials a must!
You remember the recent backlash against Andrew Sullivan's ghostbloggers? Yep, nearly half the posts at the Daily Dish aren't even written by Sully! And the thing is, his production assistants don't even get their own bylines! AOSHQ took Daily Dish to the woodshed, "Panic at the Disco: Andrew Sullivan's Ghost-Bloggers Out Him." But even better was Glenn Reynolds, who noted:
When I have guestbloggers, they get their own bylines — and I don’t have any regular “staff” checking emails, running down links, etc. It’s just me and the readers and scheduled posts. I do ask Stacy Tabb and Aaron Hanscom to watch for typos when I’m going to be offline for a while, but that’s it. From now on I’ll wonder what on Andrew’s blog is Andrew’s. I’m pretty sure all the Trig-truther stuff, anyway ....Aaron Hanscom's the Los Angeles editor at Pajamas Media, and while I publish occasionally at Pajamas, he's obviously not checking my blog for typos. So, if there are any hot neocons out there looking for some blogging experience, send me and e-mail! I need help desperately!
ADDENDUM: This is mostly satire, but if there really are hot young neocons out there reading this blog, fact is I can hardly afford to hire an assistant, although guest posting opportunities are available!

Noticed Charles Johnson is featured today on bloggingheadstv.
Aside: Panic at the Disco does some great videos.
I need an Intern; must be attractive female, preferably under 5'4", beret is not essential.
