I’m not a nerd! My mom and the coolest D&D Dungeon master I know both say so!

I suspect the IT keeps needling bloggers because they know it will get everyone writing a response with links to their website. Its a little ironic that they do it in the Cap City section where no one uses their name…kind of like an anonymous blog.

But if any local reporter scoffs at blogs I’ll point out that for over a year my blog was the only place you could read anything about the Populex voting system that didn’t look like a press release from Joe Aeillo. That’s one case where the local press completely failed at doing their job.

I totally snorted when I read, “I guess when you’re as popular as Gus Gordon, at least that’s what I keep telling myself, you’re fodder for the tabloids.”

Dave frequently doesn’t wear pants when he blogs from home. But that’s because it’s 500 degrees in his office which is located in a home that he owns and is upstairs. Thank you very much.

I made my presence known on the IT website.

You know what’s amazing? I have a journalism degree from Mizzou and want to work in the field. However, this joker is gainfully employed.

Anyone know what this person looks like? You should start stalking them. Oh wait. That would mean you would have to have no life, too.

That was kind of an offensive article… I wasn’t too pleased when I read that. It’s people like that guy that make Springfield not a place to enjoy. I try to be active in the community, just like many other SPFLD Bloggers, but we do have lives as well. I don’t know, it just kind of rubs me the wrong way I guess. People trying to do something good for a city and they only get slammed by others. I’d like to know the last time IT planned an event like you guys did… Ok sorry, I’m off my soap box now.

Doom - the good ol’ days. Remember Blinky? “Hey Kyle, you wanna play Doom?”

Gaggle of nerds… that’s what I always thought about your Doom tournaments in Kyle’s basement
When I used to work for an un-named baseball team, when any of us felt the call of nature, we announced to the office that we had to go “send a fax.”
