Despite what Momus had to say about the Pillbox, I love it.

I still think Goldfrapp's new one is closer to (my idea of) what the Associates would sound like in '03. The Aspera and Dinky albums definitely have traces.

Although, actually, I love me some British incomprehensiblogs. Instead of feeling dumb about a subject of which I'm truly ignorant (say, particle physics) I can feel well nigh retarded about a subject like music, which I thought I knew something about. I like to think of TMFTML as a service to all the dumbfucks out there like myself; surely we deserve blogs we can understand, right?

Andy, Cozen - I can feel the love on this board!
Andy, my blog is scant as it gets right now as I'm just so darn busy writing paid things and i have a terribly boring day job to do, too... incidentally I'm just wondering if I know you at all... drop me a note offa da list...
and momus, re penman's bad-looking blog, i find it really endearing that he can write so beautifully and still be shit at HTML... hey, a man can't be good at everything ;-)

'Success was not the primary concern of Karl Kraus; rather, it was perfection. He was known to sit for hours hovering over daily newspapers and magazines. When he had read every bit of news available, he would begin his arduous task of clipping out the articles that captured his attention, and pasting each one to a large sheet of paper. On each sheet he would painstakingly document his sardonic attacks in a minuscule scrawl, one that was nearly indecipherable for most, including his printer. Kraus worked throughout the night, and after each printing he would insist on editing it himself so as not to miss a single flaw. With a few exceptions, Die Fackel contained only polemical and satirical essays by Kraus. This was due to the high fees demanded by those he wished would write for him, as well as the need to have full control over his periodical.
Because Kraus was financially independent, only very few advertisements appeared in his periodical, and these only in the very beginning. Kraus detested partiality of the press, and hoped to remain neutral. The irony is that his essays were extremely opinionated and kept him in constant debate with the public. More ironic is Kraus' overall view of the press in general. He considered journalism "the goiter of the world" while he himself was a journalist.'

Of course, Where is Raed ?LanguagehatSamuel Pepys' DiaryGawkerAnd.. though it's winding down I suppose.. the New York City Anti-Hipster ForumTo me.. a good blog is focused but not too focused, and is written by someone w/a deep knowledge of a subject, often part of a community of fellow.. scholars/devotees of that subject, & is sharing it & making it accessible - as in Languagehat, I have learned a lot & found great links to like-minded blogs - and thus have been led to tons of language resources in several languages that I wouldn't have otherwise known about. And, of course, Salam Pax's blog provided an absolutely invaluable perspective on life in Baghdad before & during the war.. and it's extremely well written to boot.

In the '03 I particularly love TWANBOC, Everything's Usable, Spizzazzz, Astronaut's Notepad, Blissblog, Church of Me, Matos's blog. World of Stelfox has gotten off to a promising start but more is needed! And we must never forget the one, the only Josh Blog, still dropping shock and awe on me after all this time.
In the '03 I mourn the passing of Technicolour and the not-updated-enough-ness of NYLPM or In Review.

The blog of a high-school acquaintance I haven't actually seen in three years. His old blog was actually a great deal more depressing, I've kept reading because it seems that his life is getting better.
That and it takes fifteen seconds to read his entries.
