When will people stop elbowing me about the thing everyone is looking at that I haven't blogged?
I've seen it. I saw it when I wasn't at my computer and in blogging mode, and by the time I was in that position again, the thing had been pointed out so many times that it was too late for me to have any feeling that I was showing it to you, and I wasn't going to put it up as a monument to the proposition that I have already seen it, and it wasn't the kind of thing where there should be a post where you could talk about it, because the only thing to say was ha, ha, I'm seeing that, which was only ever worth saying right at the beginning, and I missed that moment, so could we please just move on?

I have no idea what this thing is.
Maybe Meade can comment here. That is if he is still around.
Diagram that sentence.
I'm with Henry.
Not "everyone" apparently is looking at whatever you are on about.
While this discussion is going on, I'll go look for some song lyrics.
I generally have an opinion on everything. In this case, I am without a clue.
This is kind of like a black hole Cafe post: Please pipe down about the thing not blogged about. All the light is sucked out of the topic but commenters will create their own blackbody energy until the topic evaporates.

I do think an interesting question, based on the Soon Yi Previn post, is this: is there any artist, politician, celebrity, scientist whose has privately kept private for a long time whose story would be worth hearing now?
Somebody did it better

Chuck, stop emailing the hostess!
"Maybe Meade can comment here. That is if he is still around."
Oh I'm around alright. But I'm keeping my elbows to myself. That's for sure.
Why have I been excluded from camp Everyone?

I, for one, do think we should move on from it. It has become quite distracting. Our wonderful blogging hostess should no longer be vexed tormented by it.
The only problem is that nobody know whst it is.
I’m dropping the “Meade is dead” joke. Stake even to me.
Katz was on the WI L. Rev. Did new prof Ann Althouse know this woman?
Did anyone hear that tree fall?
Is it this latest Kavanaugh conspiracy theory? I wouldn't want to commit some blog-gaffe by falling into the hole we're supposed to be dancing around.
True, it wasn’t that big a ha ha.
Everybody, who is "somebody", is talking about Crowdfunding being the fuel for cancer quackery, but that can't be what you mean.
What do you mean?
Is this about Sarah Sanders's pecan pie again?
put it up as a monument to the proposition
Conceived, conceived as we all was, and dedicated to the proposition that allll men, I tell you baby, ALll men, are created Equal.
The death of God?
"Diagram that sentence."
LOL
I was going to say that.
Possibly my longest sentence ever.
How can you move on from something that you don't even know what it is?
It's like a Zen koan.
What is the sound of one elbow prodding?
When did I stop elbowing my wife?
OK. I percieve that some other commenters cannot resist the urge to e-mail the Professor with hot tips. Frankly, that would take someting away from the experience if I could control her thoughts. I like them just the way they are. Surprise me with outre-ages.
"When did I stop elbowing my wife?"
I remember the last time. It was like this.
OK. I'll stop suggesting that you interview Gwyneth Paltrow's hoo-hoo.
"Surprise me with outre-ages."
Ok. Outré!
Fine, just ignore the new world record finish of the Berlin Marathon. 2:01:39.
"You know what's kept me goin' all these years? The thought that one day... never mind... silly. Just the thought that maybe one day, I'd -- I could have a woman's arms wrapped around me... and her legs wrapped around me.... That I could wake up in the morning and she'd still be there. Smell of her. All funky and warm. I finally gave up on it."
Loser, argh.
I thought that nobody should elbow anyone else unless they want to be elbowed.
Like not even if it has been a long time since they elbowed anyone and they would really like elbow someone. Unless the other person also wants the elbow then they should not be elbowed. Everyone needs to want to elbow or nobody is elbowing.
I am not Laslo.
Kavanaugh's mom foreclosed on the victim's mom?
Strange coincidence.
Also, WaPo sat on the story since July.
Elbows Elbows elbows Elbows Elbows elbows Elbows.
The above is a complete sentence, assuming the Elbows Elbows is the name of a man, and he hit his namesakes dog named elbow with his elbow.
Do I win the buffalo prize?
This is the problem only reading this blog monday through friday.
Now I have to work in smelly cat references.
Maybe Kavanaugh smelled a cat.
I am not Laslo.
But, but, but ... Eiertanz!

Song lyrics by Marty Robbins (1925 - 1982)
-----
Never Tie Me Down
Give me lots of elbow room.
Never tie me down.
Let me see the mountains
Over yonder.
Let me ride and roam,
And let me wander.
Let me see the rivers.
Let me see the waterfalls.
Let me ride until I've seen
The beauty of it all.
Let me sleep out in the cold
Upon the dampened ground.
Never tie me down.

Sung by Marty Robbins
Say Hi to the Elbonian
If you don't know by now don't mess with it.
Sorry!
I don’t come here to get your take on what everyone else is talking about. I come here to find out what YOU want to talk about.
