What is that for you ask? That elongated ah, what does it mean? Damnit Barry, you've been away for so long that we don't even understand your sounds anymore! Well calm down Comrades, that right there is the sound of yours truly waking up after too long of a hiatus from the blogosphere. Yes, I'm back. Not because the Red Army is on a win streak (I refuse to accept the label that I am a fair weather blogger), no, it is because there is competition that transcends stick and puck these days. I am talking about the war of words between Prestige Worldwide Hockey and the Red Army Digest (though you may know the online rivalry by the nicknames it is even less known as, like "The Fight of the Font", "The Bout of Blogging", and "Tuxedos are for Gays".)
Psssssch....
What's the sound? Well that's the sound of me cracking open a frosty brew, leaning back in my chair made entirely out of albino Siberian tiger skin, and laughing at the notion that another blog is even worthy of smelling the excrement that this blog produces (though comparing the content that this blog produces to excrement immediately discredits the analogy). I just hope the point, like the smell in this fictitious scenario, lingers.
But Barry, they have merchandise. They have more writers. They have been generating articles and linking them to their Facebook pages for weeks and you've stood by and done nothing!
First off, I haven't been doing nothing. Last week I completed the Washington Post's Wednesday crossword and sudoku puzzles before lunch. Now yes, I did eat lunch at around 4:15 pm that day, but who are you to tell me what time lunch is? If I wanted a peanut butter and jelly sandwich at 4:15 pm I'm going to eat it then, and there is nothing you can do to stop me. Go ahead and try, if you do you'll be considered a racist. Why? Because George Washington Carver was black.
Check... and mate.
Now the point of this post was not to throw PW's blog under the bus. I respect what they do over there (though the Catholic Church condemns it) and I think it's great that they finally have a winning team to cover, heaven knows they
And to all the doubters at the PW headquarters: I'd get as many articles published before September 9, 2010, because that's when your winning streak ends.

lol so many things i want to say in response to this article. but, i'll say them privately to the soviet tuxedo trophy, which we currently hold, and will continue to hold come the 9th. welcome back, your blog has some catching up to do, on all of your losses that is.
There is a cool bitterness in the air....
