UPDATE FIVE MINUTES LATER: Helloooo I just woke up and thought to my merry self, well, self, I’ll go ahead and post my favorite image from Achewood. But then I went and took a gander at my logs for this blog and something was clearly off– the size of the file was significantly huge for 12am Sunday morning. Well, what’s this I say? And then I go and check my email and some kind soul has alerted me to the fact that with yesterday’s post, I have raised the ire of Harlan Ellison.

To wit, from the man’s message board:

“HARLAN ELLISON
- Sunday, August 19 2007 10:14:13 Can someone please advise me what blog.kobek.com is, and why I should give even a speck of a fuck what they say about me?

Yr. Pal, Harlan”

So, the answer, then to Mr. Ellison: I’m nobody, although you did once rightly yell at me in USENET for acting like a jerk, and you totally should not care. Seriously. Engaging with me, or even acknowledging me, only cheapens your status as a writer and a professional. You’re a giant, I’m a gnat. On the real.

UPDATE, UPDATE DAY LATER: More.
