Friends in High Places -

Friends in High Places - Wow. Amazing what an off-the-cuff remark can do. According to the guys from Powerline, Hugh Hewitt inducted "Shot In The Dark" into the "Northern Alliance of Blogs" on last night's show. Shot joins Fraters Libertas, Powerline, Lileks and other new inductees, the SCSU Scholars (who've also achieved a spot on Instapundit's blogroll in near-record time).

For those involved - thanks!

By the way, did anyone hear the broadcast? What did Hewitt say? (between 5-8 yesterday I was busy getting ready for and taking my bagpipe test, so I missed the whole show).

For those who find this whole matter absurdly self-referential and "inside" - we'll move on now!

Mysteries of the Universe, Part MMXMLXIII - Just a few to ponder here:

• After 23 years of trying, I still can't figure out the chord voicing Malcolm Young uses on AC/DC's "Highway to Hell". Not that I'm an AC/DC fan - far from it - but that chord progression is a hook you can hang a side of beef on, and as part of my musical quest for knowledge, it's important to know these things.
• What keeps Larry Pogemiller's hair so poofy? The guy's coif looks like a large, supernaturally brown haymow with ears
• Who on Earth or in its nether regions greenlighted "The Lizzie McGuire Movie?"
• Why is "Moveable Type" so absurdly Sisyphean to install?

I don't ask much - just a few little answers, that's all.

OK. I'll get out of Larry King mode now.
