News, but not the serious kind
Try to remember the best of September
The figures are in for this blog’s most popular posts in September, and readers showed a wide variety of interests.
They flocked to our pieces on rugby, especially the nude variety, and were eager to learn about flying machines and submarines you can build at home.
Throw in some arts, politics and entertainment, and you’ve got a well-rounded month for folks who no longer need constant supervision.
Thanks for coming back, readers.
Here you go, your top 10 for the month. Now go out in the yard and build those planes and submarines!

9. She’s the Darjeeling of the Tea Party?
8. How many floozies live at this address?
7. It’s just like in the disaster movies!
6. The club doesn’t have a dress code, huh?
5. So it’s the nudes vs. the dorks?
4. Nobody booed, and the players were nude?

BG: You know, I’ve been up for a couple of hours without any coffee. Having looked at the technicolor green uniforms, I can tell you I am now wide awake. He isn’t squinting to aim, he’s squinting to reduce the glare of the uniforms! Think I will make some coffee, wash my eyes out with some and then drink a cup. Loce ya, BG!
Hey! Or rather Hay! It’s the Fall Jubilee here, complete with the Chainsaw Chicks. Guys claim they are taking their kids to watch. Right. Cute women with chain saws sculpting wood. Of course, that is also a good plot for a horror movie.
I wish they had pillows in hands.
Are you saying you are going to allow your readers to go unsupervised now? Like the parents who leave their kids home alone for the very first time? Oh boy, October is gonna be an interesting month methinks. :p
Oh and one tiny request. Any chance there can be a follow-up on the whereabouts of Medo? And for that matter, all the pandas? I know the pandas are napping as per Nosmo’s link but things have still seemed a little quiet lately. It’s troubling.
Well given that Shra’s busier than usual and away from the blog, I’m guessing supervision is bound to decrease. It’s not like BG will be tasing people himself. Heck, he gets tased himself at times!
I’m sad that the noodle museum post didn’t get more hits. It was possibly my second favo(u)rite, after the naked rugby players.

@Malt, hey…psst… hey yeah, come here a sec. Say, ya wanna learn something? Wanna know who the 16th president was? Wanna know what positraction is? Wanna know the average airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow? Come on Shra ain’t here, you can do a little learnin’ can’t ya? No one will tell I promise!
Oh, I know that stuff already. In the meantime, do you want to learn how to write “you” and “want to” properly? I won’t tell either, I promise!
Sure I would be more than happy to lear…..heeey wait a minute, are you wearing a wire?
Oh, no, that’s just a home-made leash so my fiancee knows where I am all the time. We call it the Trustinator.
