Beefy Cotton T: "Nielsen" -- "Who's number one? Jakob Nielsen, of course! Everyone's favorite usability gury gets his 15 seconds of fame with the K10k "Nielsen"-shirt. The front features the text 'bow down to the king'." (Comments: Thanks Joshua Kaufman.)

John, if Joshua wouldn't link to that page on his blog, why would you? That's sloppy seconds. That's picking through Joshua's garbage can. That's eating Joshua's table scraps. Or, maybe, that's Joshua sucking up. That's Joshua boot licking. That's Joshua brown-nosing. That's being the teacher's pet. Which is it John? I have an attitude this morning and I demand an answer.

If that is the ad I think it is...it is the funniest thing on TV I have seen in a long, long time.

Been hitting the vodka a little early, Jack?

More importantly, John deflected the question and Joshua completely ducked it.

Oh no, the dreaded double-post. I hit the post button only once.

Balls! You're just trying to increase your comments count.

Don't be that way MadMan. Feel the love.

There are ten unrelated comments on here about the article...welcome to number 11.

I will be number 1!

Jack, I almost replied to your comment yesterday, but decided to duck right before I hit the post button. I wanted to see if anyone else would reply to your comment first.

I submitted the link to WebWord because:
1. I wanted to support the WebWord community.
2. I thought the link was interesting/humorous enough for the WebWord audience.
3. I wanted to give the link exposure.

I didn't link the page from my blog because I was satisfied with submitting it to WebWord. Or maybe I just forgot about it. Or maybe I wanted to lure Jack into giving John attitude about it. Or maybe some other reason.

I simply submitted the link and didn't think twice about it. Surely there are better things to discuss than weblog semantics.

Ah told ya', that boy Jack is just tryin' to get his comments total up. And don't you be offerin' me any love, bucko. Ah don't need it.

Josh says: I didn't link the page from my blog because I was satisfied with submitting it to WebWord.

Aha! The truth comes out! Josh, can I call you Josh? Anyhow, Josh submitted the link to WebWord because it wasn't good enough for his own site. That's just like you Josh.

MadMan, I know you don't need love. I will end this message now, before I begin making chimp jokes. oops.

Sure.

That's just like you Josh.

If you say so, Jack.

Sorry to sound dumb(er than usual), but the pic on the shirt looks nothing like JN.
