Angry, We Hardly Knew Ye

Filed under: Bear Flag League — Patterico @ 10:41 pm

I am sad to report the passing of the Angry Clam — the blog, not the person.

Blogging will be Angrier for the next few days, in his memory.

P.S. I am swearing off blogging for the rest of the weekend, out of respect. Also because I won’t have access to a computer. But mostly out of respect.

  1. Trackbacks - The Peoples’ Version
    Many comrades wonder about Trackbacks (TB) and struggle with them. Here is non-technical, peoples’ version from ‘knows-just-enough-to-be-dangerous’ Commissar. Purpose Trackbacks automatically put a link to your post in another blog, generally on a post…

  2. Yup, looks like you were. :)
    I linked to your .php file, and no TB. I went back, copied the TB URL, pasted it in the little box, and … there it is.

    The problem is clearly at my end. Either MT doesnt know how to work with links to .php files, or I haven’t set it up correctly.

  5. I was spending too much time blogging and not enough working.

    I deleted it to avoid the temptation to continue, which would have happened had I decided to quit but left it.

  6. I am so sorry to see the Clam leave. He will be missed, as much for his helpful comments on Latin and Greek as for his troglodytic politics. A good man, that mollusk.

  7. He may be brilliant, but he is an axxhole. Uncaring and unfeeling. The loss of his blog only contriubtes to a betterment of the world.

    You can be conservative without being a jerk. AC was never able to understand that.

    I’m SOOOOO glad he’s gone.

  8. I did understand that.

    What you forget is that I am a jerk.
