Do you recall The Sun recently running a front page with Alan Sugar being targeted by mysterious Muslim militants?
Well, it turns out the Sun's informant and 'expert' quoted in the story was the *author* of the comments causing concern.

(There. Now *I* have a story for The Sun, too; proof that the bogeyman exists... and that he misses her off 'Countdown'!)

two recent posts to blogs where the authors haven't been jumped on and accused of being boring or spamming.
And you know why? - because they were interesting and informative.
You see, newbies, that's the way to do it. Only post a new link to your blog when you've *really* got something fresh and original to say.
Well done those men..
Cheers
