A Clash Of Titans
The whole blogosphere has quaked to the battle of a couple of titans arguing over who's the real moxie. The odd thing to me is that neither is actually named moxie - they just use that moniker online. Just think if all the "Kevins" decided to get in a flame war -- the internet itself would slow to a crawl as the legion of Kevins and their supporters sucked up bandwidth. Hey, that would be a real traffic booster!
I'm hereby laying down the gauntlent to all those other bloggers who use Kevin in their name - it's mine, all mine. I'm older than most Kevins out there - 41. I've been on the net since 1997. And I have an Irish family name to go with it. Ha! Take that, you other Kevins! I think that entitles me to be King of the Kevins, the one true Kevin, the Keviniest Kevin of them all. So all of my regulars, both of you, go out and tell all the other Kevin bloggers that they are ripping me off. That goes for:
Kevin whe definately isn't Irish,
and any other blogging Kevins.
Okay, the taunting was pretty lame -- my heart wasn't in it. I'd rather form the League of Kevins than get in some stupid fight about who was here first. Still, I can't deny I would like the traffic.
Oh yeah, Kevin Drum did link to a bunch of Kevins, and Kevin Aylward liked the idea enough to do it again and send a nice email, but the League of Kevins is my idea!
