Ah ha! The root of questions like these. (http://www.livejournal.com/users/rupertrupinette/9920.html) Also, makes me think of David Cross's recent letter to Larry the Cable Guy. (http://www.bobanddavid.com/david.asp?artId=183) If linking to my blog (or anywhere else) is rude, please let me know. Still not sure on all the online etiquette.

The only sort of link that would be rude would be of a purely commercial sort, especially if it bears no relevance to the original post.
