    The LAMB taken to slaughter

    I knew this day would come eventually, I just didn’t know when.

    Due to a number of personal reasons, combined with the reality that running this site simply takes more time than it gives, I’m sad to say that I’m pulling the plug on this little experiment.

    I wish to thank you all for the time and effort that you’ve put into making it work for the length of time that it did, and I wish you nothing but the...

    Quick note

    I’m not a big fan of word verification, but I’m turning it on for the short term, as I’ve noticed a higher-than-usual number of spam comments coming through, not only on my sites but on a number of others as well. I’ve seen just about enough of these “comments” to last a lifetime.…

  • LAMB Leaderboard updated for February!

    LAMB Leaderboard updated for February!

    You know, I was a little embarrassed after seeing the February total for Blog Cabins and almost manually altered the number to move myself down the leaderboard, but I remembered a few things:

    * First, the data is impartial; I go to Google Analytics, select the dates and report the numbers. If anything, the number for BC is lower than it should be, as I think I’ve blocked a few IPs from reporting to Analytics (just because I...

    ANNOUNCEMENT: The LAMB Forums

    To all those that have emailed asking me about the status of the LAMB Forum, I want to thank you. I apologize for the inconvenience, but have hopefully remedied it for good. Like the Arizona Cardinals themselves, the LAMB Forums have risen like a Phoenix and have been re-born.

    You can access the new Forums here.

    This unfortunately means that we’re starting from scratch. Regardless of whether or not you had a login...

    LAMB Forum

    FYI: I am aware that the LAMB Forum is currently down. I have a ticket in (so to speak) with the owner of the site it’s hosted on (the Movie Fanatic) to get an ETA. I’ll let you more as I know more.

    Thanks.…

    Devours update

    Here are the assignments for The LAMB Devours the Oscars 2009. If you see your name listed below, please start and finish your analysis as soon as possible! I’ve moved up the planned starting date one day to two days from now, Thursday, January 29th. Doing so will make this a once-a-day event, with 24 days and 24 categories running until the Best Picture article is posted on February 21, the day before the 81st Annual...

    The LAMB Devours the Oscars 2009 update 2

    Updated: Saturday, 6:30 PM (new information below in green)

    I have lots of good news and a little bad news. Let’s start with the good…

    First off, judging by the poll to your left, there should be at least 29 people (not counting me) that are up for our Oscars event, 17 of which are dangerously psyched about it. I was thrilled to see those results.

    Better news: I received a number of emails within days of...

    Who are LAMB (part II)?

    I pestered and pestered, and the results have come in. You’re dying to know who you are, aren’t you? Aren’t you?

    Well, compared to last time, you’re: slightly older (24% in the 36-45 age range compared to 8%), more feminine (78% –69%), equally hetero-homosexual, similarly commited, relationship-wise, and equally white. More details below – here are the full results:

    Happy Birthday, LAMB!

    In case you somehow missed the spiffy special banner I put up yesterday (thanks to Mrs. Fletch for the Photoshop work) or the incessant reminders, today is the LAMB’s first birthday.

    I might normally try to say something profound here, like “The experience I’ve had growing and learning with all you LAMBs has taught me…,” but I won’t. Instead, I’ll leave that to you (maybe) and just post a...

  • Important new poll

    Important new poll
    I don’t mean to be calling anyone out, but after a discussion in the comments section of this post, I’ve put up a new poll, and I think it’s an important one.

    For the almost-year that the LAMB has been around, I’ve tried to be as open as possible to new sites wishing to join. We all know that the definition of a “blog” is hazy to begin with, so that just adds to the confusion, but I’ve tried not to...

    Sorry

    Actually, I’m sorry that I’ve been a bad shepherd. The above is just for fun.

    You don’t want to hear about my blah blah busy work, so I’ll spare you that (or am I too late?). Nothing worse than the apologetic blogger for not blogging, then posting something about not blogging just so that nobody forgets that they exist (except when I do it much better).

    Short story long: Chops tonight, results of...
