Well, you might ask them about that after you've given them a bit more
free work. They will almost certainly let your blog trackback,
although I would think you probably way more hits than Zaz does
anyway, so I guess it doesn't matter that much. Planning on writing
more this week? You know, you can talk about Palin or Obama or McCain
or whatever; they're all pretty, rich, and famous, so I think that
qualifies them as celebrities. Pretty much everything I've written for
Zaz thus far has been at least a little political.

Speaking of which, if McCain went on SNL more, I'd be more likely to
vote for him. He was pretty fucking good whenever he went on.

I didn't trackback manually, but I'm a wordpress blog, so it should have
done it automatically.  Probably went into  moderation and was then silenced
by NL Stalinists.

Hey, didn't you have a trackback to your blog in the comments on your
Zaz post? Seems to have disappeared, so I'm assuming they deleted it.
They get some random scam trackbacks to those sites that just reprint
shit illegally sometimes, so they might have just deleted it thinking
it was one of those. I'll look into this, because I'm planning on
doing some cross-posting at some point myself and want to make sure
that, since we're not getting paid, we at least get the opportunity to
promote our stuff just as much as we're promoting their stuff.

Well, they really don't have many readers to begin with. My goal is to
fill up this vacuum with a different demographic - our demographic.
THEN WE WILL NATIONALIZE THE MEANS OF CHUCKLING!

Which is why in a pinch I can pull off a Winona Ryder fart joke like

Groovy. Remember, just have fun with it ("Be yourself!11!1"). They're
just happy to get something that's not fucking retarded, which is a
great luxury for them these days.

I fixed it.  It was in visual.  I post in code.  So the cut and paste
went
bad.  But I found the answer.

So much for that debut.
