From My Inbox

Last year I spent about six month as one of dmJuice.com's top trafficed bloggers. I don't want to brag, but I ruled that liberal website like a Democrat spending tax money. I constantly tried to screw with the readers like I was a blogging Andy Kaufman. Good times...good times. Then I went too far and became the overall top blogger and as a conservative that meant I must go. Why dredge up old news? Well, when I was a Juice blogger I would receive emails letting me know someone had left a comment and I still get these emails occasionally.

I find this ironic to say the least. I am not listed on the Juice website anywhere, but my posts are still on their servers. So, that people are finding my posts means that Google searches are pulling up my old Juice articles. Going by their current crop of bloggers it's safe to say that my archived posts are probably pulling better traffic and comments than the new posts. Here is the email I received for a post I did on local loser, Larry Smithson:

Well Jeremie Jordan,


Personally I don't give a FLYING F**K what you have to say. It says "IF YOU ARE EASILY OFFENDED PLEASE STOP READING NOW" and I say the only thing good about those words is the PLEASE STOP READING. You are a desperate man with very desperate words. When writing an article/blog you should have the nerve to come face to face with the subject, not pick over a more prestigious paper's writings, even if you are a smaller branch of that paper. This was one big disgrace to the quickly growing and popular "Juice". You have a noticibly low level of self-confidence, which isn't suprising with the quickly-fading hairline and the "i gotta fit it gossip." I mean seriously quit the journalism and go on a diet, because i think everyone on here is thinking the same.


You chose to write about someone, who has helped Court Ave. and the downtown area the way it is today. Without him your chubby ass little mind wouldn't have had an article to write. He's a family oriented, but also a good businessman. It just so happens he picked up a few FRIENDS/ENEMIES through his climb to success.

PS: Your rather hilarious comment of "THE WORST COMB-OVER" is looking like it might meet you someday by the looks of your picture.


oh and also..


I can't wait to read the TOM BALDWIN article, which may feature his quickly decreasing funds, but thats just an idea.


GOODBYE JEREMIE.

Just to let you know genius, I don't write for Juice anyone...or should I say "Larry stop leaving comments," because you know this comment was probably left by Smithson after Googling his own name.

Since I was reminded of Juice by this email I thought it would be a good time to revisit one of my favorite posts that I did on Juice:

Up To The Minute Opinion Polls

:: March 27th, 2006 :: 2:21 pm

Somewhere in the press today, there will no doubt be an opinion poll detailing a decline in President Bush’s approval rating. It seems recently CNN and the New York Times have taken to conducting real-time updates of Bush job performance:

6 AM (approval rating 36%): Bush wakes. CNN is reporting American’s where unimpressed with the President’s dream about pink turtles knights wearing tube socks on their tails in an attempt to win favor with the Princess No Left Turn. The public is calling for more dreams about Saddam in a thong.

7AM (approval rating 35%): Bush is dressed and has daily security briefing. NY Times publishes polls indicating that 87% of all Democrats disagree with Bush’s discussion to go with the navy suit and a red tie. Even 65% of Republicans think he should wear more suits with pin stripes.

8AM (approval rating 34%): After a quick breakfast with the First Lady, Bush heads to the oval office. The Huffington Post is claiming Bush is completely out of touch with the average American, as the President chooses a bran muffin over Count Chocula. The Huffington Post is also reporting Hitler liked a good bran muffin too…

9AM (approval rating 33%): Bush makes a few calls to congressional leaders to drum up support for some of his initiatives. MichaelMoore.com surveys 23 Americans and finds that 6 of them are disappointed with Bush’s use of a landline phone. Clearly the “will of the people” is for their President to use a Blackberry.

10AM (approval rating 32%): Cheney and Rumsfeld request a meeting with Bush to discuss the War in Iraq. The Washington Post editorial staff rakes the President for not stabilizing the violence in Iraq, ratifying their Constitution and mending the centuries of ethic hatred before “hanging out with his buddies at 10AM and playing war games.”

11AM (approval rating 31%): The President skips a planned early lunch and goes for a jog before heading off to scheduled public appearances. Howard Dean attacks Bush for creating a lunch-skipping precedent that may influence thousands of impressionable children to not eat their school lunches. Dean goes on to say the President clearly doesn’t think the established timetables for breakfast, lunch and supper apply to the current administration.

Let me state this clearly and distinctly: the only opinion poll I care about is the one where Americans goes into a little booth and vote. However, that said, I do believe the President can do better in the polls. I think with a little effort on his part he can dip to the 20% range. I personally won’t be satisfied until Bush hits then teens, but then my expectations of what I expect out of the President are more rigid than the average American citizen. Clearly it is time for Bush to snap his fingers and click his heels and solve all of the problems in the world.
