I realize it's hard to categorize, but...

...when you think of Possumblog, would you describe it as a "Group blog on current trends in news and politics"? Nah, probably not, BUT I AM NONETHELESS thankful to Eponym.com for thinking enough of Possumblog to name it as their blog of the day.

One of the things that has been consistent about Possumblog over the years is its maddening refusal to be placed in a category, and I kinda like it that way. And I hope you do, too.

UPDATE: The very nice support folks at Eponym made a correction to the listing to note that I am Supreme Possumblog Editor, Chancellor, President, and Exhalted Ruler, but also went to the trouble to ask if I had a description I thought might be more descriptive. I suggested this one: "Blog with a humorous take on current trends in a wide variety of subjects, including news, politics, entertainment, history, work, religion, family, and vicious animals."

Yes, I realize I might get into trouble for lying about the humorous part.

UPDATE: AND I forgot to mention it, but hello to those of you who clicked over here out of curiosity. Please do not be put off by the lack of content--once you get used to it, I hear it's very refreshing. Anyway, thanks for stopping by, feel free to leave a comment (as long as it is nice--I live for constant positive reinforcement), and come back again soon.

I figured they had a random number generator and yours came up.

I wish they'd make it to where it would shoot $100 bills into my bank account.

That would just about get you out of the food court.

As long as I only get a small water.

By "vicious animals" do you mean possums, armadillos, or kitties? Just wondering...

LOOK, A BADGER!

Sounds like they confused you with James Joyner for a minute. Then they had to leave you up there to prevent embarassment for everyone involved.

Yeah, I know--especially think how James must feel!

If you include the comments, its almost like a group blog, only the rest of us don't have to do any actual work.

It probably also would count as a group blog if you consider all of my other personalities.

True...and if you ever let Chet out of the basement or Luther out of the garage, you might have a group blog in the making.
