Dear readers,
As you are no doubt aware, the publication of new and exciting issues of The House of Lies relies almost exclusively on the income generated by the readers' comments. The only other source of funding we have at present is the generous monthly grant we recieve from Auric Enterprises Ltd.
The rest of the editorial staff and I have been discussing various courses of action for some time now, and with our finances now under investigation by the Canadian Revenue Agency, we feel that we have no choice. For a new issue of The House of Lies to be issued, ten comments MUST be posted on the previous blog entry. This is the new fiscal and creative reality. We are no more happy with the current situation than I'm sure you are, however this is what is needed in order to secure a stable future for The House of Lies, in this, it's 78th year of publication.
We would like to thank you for your continued readership, and it is our sincerest hope to continue to publish blogs worthy of your time and attention.
Very sincerely yours,
J. 'Challenger' Duffy, Esquire
-Editor
PS: This is my way of telling you people to post! More than once, even! Neale! Geoff! Alleah! I'm looking at you folks and shaking my fist. *shakes*

you know if you want comments, youre going to have to up the material to go with the audience! I mean, racy gossip and whatnot!
anyways, did yo uhavea good valentines?
No one give in! No one comme... oh, shit. Anyways, I agree, lets hear some juicy gossip, Llowyn :p
Yes, everyone who comments is surely a weak minded...
Shoot.
Ah well, I shall take this chance to plug the Nanaimo Failures blog
And, while I am at it, my own Blog!
Question, dear, if I post my one comment, but in two seperate comments
it should count as two, and that means you'll have to post more frequently! Mua ha ha ha.
Well, I guess we all knew this was coming. It seems like every blog is starting to charge people comments. Is nothing sacred? What about the great blogs of the past? You didn't see demands for comments pop up on "Abe Lincoln's Miscellany of Stuff" or "Ghandi-o-Rama", now did you?
Of course, those blogs, unlike this one, I just made up. Real blogs have to get funding somehow- my blog, for example, is supported entirely through recycling scrap metal. Next thing you know, Wonkette will be demanding that we mail postmarked boxes full of nylons to her, and what kind of a world is that?!
I'm all worn out now. Llowyn, I suspect you'll find great success now that you've up and asked for comments.
llllloooowwwyyyynnn! what did you doo on vaaaalllleeentttiiiennnee's day? I want racy gossip, too! Actually, I'm more interested in sordid details.
Hey, THIS is the tenth comment! I am Llowyn's blog's SUGAR DADDY! just wanmted to say that I am a part of the failing blog as well. And also...I have posted on my actual blog once again, so check it!
The power of ten comments compells you, Llowyn.
You know, guys, I find it just slightly ironic that somewhere out there was bashing our violin-playing friend here about reading comprehension &/or literacy. The reason being, of course, he demanded 10 comments on the PREVIOUS post which still stands at 7, not this one.
K
Or so I think...
Burn on us...asshole anonymous's reading comprehension burn was meant for US not our poor friend Llowyn. OFF am I to go raise Llowyn's comment count!
