It's War on LeVar
My internet guru Steve alerted me to the fact that somebody was masquerading as yours truly on Twitter. Even though the person was only linking to my blog, which I actually thought was a lovely thing to do, it wasn't me and I grew alarmed. What if he/she started Twittering inaccuracies about my life? That's my job. So I unleashed my phalanx of rabid lawyers on his/her ass, and reclaimed my Twitterhood as my own. Once I did that, I decided the only correct thing to do was to start Twittering myself. Much to my surprise, it's good, clean fun. Much to my amazement, LeVar Burton has over thirty thousand people following him. For some reason, this outraged me. LeVar Burton? C'mon!
(Such bullshit)
Yes, LeVar was on "Star Trek." Yes, he hosted "Reading Rainbow." But do thirty thousand people need to know what he's up to at any and all hours? Are thirty thousand people feeling their mobile phones vibrate and thinking to themselves, "That must be LeVar."
Well if that many people follow He With the Visor, shouldn't I have at least that many people reading my every missive? Shouldn't thirty thousand people know when I am meeting with a group of former astronauts, as LeVar is doing today? I think so.
If you would like to follow me on Twitter, you can find me under "Michaelianblack."
LeVar is full of amazing and win.
Take comfort in that you are occasionally funny!

Just an unrelated observation: Does LeVar's visor resemble a gold Framm Oil filter.(say 50th anniversary edition)..I'm siding with my fellow tri-state hebrew humorist for this battle ..

he's got so many followers because he's been active in the tech/podcast community. he's shown up on pretty popular podcasts such as TWiT, Diggnation, and went to CES and mingled with the likes of the Tekzilla crew and Revision3. I suggest you listen to the TWiT episode with LeVar on it, it was pretty good :) Maybe if you got yourself out there to the tech/geek community, you'd also get 30,000+ followers :D

My gawd you're boring, and you're stealing Colbert's schtick too. Please get an original idea IAB.
Oh, and Levar kicks your ass six ways 'til Tuesday you refuge from a VH1 clipshow.

Ahahaha! No contest. You see, I have no idea who you are, yet I know and love LeVar!
I've even heard him sing. ;)

What is the purpose of war?
The wars year after year, day by day kill many people. There should be a way we have more peace in Elmundo. People live in a world very nice and we have to care.

The main sources of deforestation in the Amazon are human settlement and development of the land. Prior to the early 1960s, access to the forest's interior was highly restricted, and the forest remained basically intact. Farms established during the 1960s was based on crop cultivation and the slash and burn method.
