Ripples in the Pond

The LA Times keeps a discussion board of sorts that cross-references all of the Op Eds. I chuckled as Tim Cavanaugh posted most of the liberal clichés that I missed:

Op Ed: Stephen Harper forever!
David Drucker, a liberal who headed to Canada after the 2004 election, pulls over his Volvo, turns down NPR, takes a sip of latté, and rolls up his Utne Reader to announce that even a Democratic congress can’t bring him back from the Great White North.
(discuss…)

It doesn’t surprise me how my little piece of humour seemed to inspire everything from more of the same (as above), an angry rant from South Dakota, some really great emails from old friends and complete strangers, mentions in some great blogs written by friends in San Francisco and Boston, and a few snarky comments. I was, however, surprised to see that for a short while, the ‘most emailed’ list to the right of the site’s page for a while looked like this:
Most emailed block on the LA Times

Most emailed? Gee… Look, Ma, I was a Meme!

Update: More blog mentions in Boston, and here and here in Vancouver. Cool.
