Every post I make is carefully crafted with one single goal in mind: to extract as much Karma as possible.

Each post goes through many drafts. I field test the post to other groups and follow up with a survey ranking the posts karma-worthiness. I belong to hundreds of blogs, newsgroups and wikis, anything with a rating system deployed. When I discover a post that has extracted a large amount of karma (reputation, bullion, diggs, etc.) I tend to repurpose the post by changing key words for use on other web sites. You would be surprised how well changing the word “ebook” to “prius” or “turtle wax” or “3D glasses” can result in a single post being reusable in extracting karma from several sites.

I have none of these products, of course. I don’t really have an ebook reader, or a prius, and I have never used turtle wax or looked at anything in 3D (having only one eye), but it is the satisfaction of extracting karma that motivates me. I plan on retiring someday, but not until I have reached my goal of being the King of Karma on every single web site on the internet.

One must have a dream!

Okay, so I just gave my first karma to you for this post.

But not as well ay PlanetHead's plan is working (karma to postwise that is.) Maybe if he did invest in some Turtle Wax or even a bikini wax he might get a higher response rate. I know it did wonders for me.

After years of being the "before" photograph I am now the "after" photograph. Next week Marc and I go on tour as the "Doublemint Twins."

Would that be a double-date with the real "before" Doublemint twins or "after"?

You know, they do say that opposites attract ("before" with "after")!

Oh my. That's a reminder that I didn't really need, to confirm that time always marches on. Wonder what we could collectively do, to get it to go the OTHER direction......

Would the use of my employer's large particle accelerator be a help?

I presume you mean this biographically, of the baby, rather than autobiographically.

The Good Mister Wood is the one with the ladder in his stockings.

(Note, "ladder" is intended to provoke comments regarding "Snakes and Ladders" - go to it my funny friends!)

I thought innuendos were Italian suppositories.

(Props to Buddy Hackett for that one).
