Died in a blogging accident

According to google, blogging is the most dangerous. 

geek humour gets me in stitches everytime, so this ranks up there.  An experiment done by XKCD on google's trend software, changed "died in a blogging accident" from 2 results to now (as of 9:20am ish jan 13/08) 283,000. 

bloggers be careful!

tsk tsk

If you'd reviewed the feed aggregator you could have seen it on my blog, since I posted it there some +5 hours earlier. XKCD is one of my fav's, and I've posted many of them... in addition to my keen political rants (*cough*). Incidentally, the system says that you posted this at 10:23 am, so you might want to check out your computer's clock.

disabled blocks

I disabled all feed blocks from displaying in my settings here on the page, so I wouldn't have seen it.  The whole point was to continue posting to various blogs, and increase the number of results on google.  so thats what I did.  its not a case of originality, or a race to get it posted..plus I didn't see it in the recent content posted to this site..  but thanks for the critique.

as for my clock, its correct.. must have been the site
