Information about Political Irony

Happy Birthday!

Political Irony is five years old this month! Happy Birthday! I’ll be on vacation for two weeks, camping out in the middle of nowhere (seriously, on an island even!). So posts might be rather, um, infrequent.

Vacation

I’ll be on the road, so posts might be a bit spotty for two weeks.

Changes?

I would like to make some changes to Political Irony, and I really need some feedback and suggestions. When I started PI in early 2008, I only expected to run it until that election, but I had so much fun and learned so much that I kept doing it for a few years. Then there […]

I’ll be working on the site on Sunday

Site is now rebuilt. It was definitely hacked into, but should be running much faster now. This site has been getting slower and slower, and is acting up. I can only assume it has been hacked into again. I’m going to spend some time rebuilding it and cleaning it up tomorrow (Sunday night). So it […]

break

I’ll be traveling for a week, so posts might be a bit spotty. Hopefully, you have a real life to enjoy while I’m gone. 🙂

Political Irony on Facebook and Twitter

After repeatedly being bugged about this by readers, I finally got around to fixing it so that posts to Political Irony are (again) submitted to Facebook. So you can now go to the Political Irony Facebook page and “like” it. Posting to Facebook used to work, but Facebook keeps changing things and I got tired […]

My Day Job

This has little to do with politics (other than how Hurricane Sandy might affect the election), but if you are curious what I do in my not-spare time, here’s an article that talks about an animated map I created showing flight cancelations due to Sandy. You can also find it here, along with lots of […]

Off for the weekend…

I’m off camping for the weekend and won’t have any internet access. Back Sunday night. Besides, I need a break from the longest, most annoying presidential race in history.

Surgery

I’m having some surgery on Wednesday. I’ve loaded up a few posts in advance so you might not even notice, but I probably won’t be checking in for a day after that. Have fun while I’m out, and be nice to each other! UPDATE: Surgery went very well, and I’m recovering nicely. Thanks for all […]

Free Political Irony Games

I try to make it as easy as possible for people to post comments on this blog. Unlike practically all blogs, I don’t require people to create an account, and I allow anonymous postings. The price is that I have to constantly monitor the comments for spam, but I think it is worth it to […]

hacked again

This site got hacked again. Of course, it always happens when I’m out of town. I got it back up again (by completely reinstalling WordPress), but I haven’t finished restoring it completely to the way it was before. Bear with me for a few days.

Iron Knee Is Back!

It’s been lots of fun but I gotta run! – Iron Filing UPDATE: Yup, I’m back, but totally jetlagged. Will start posting again soon. Thanks so much to Iron Filing for filling in while I was on vacation. – iron knee

Bark More, Wag Less Occupy Denver

If we want Occupy Wall Street to be the movement our dogs think it is then we should let the dogs hold the leash! Shelby, more person than B of A, represents Occupy Denver in opposition to the farce of corporate personhood Occupy Denver Press Release: “In response to Denver Mayor Michael Hancock’s insistence that […]

International Man of Irony

This post will stay at the top for a while. Look below it for newer posts. Political Irony is going to have someone else posting stories for a month. Why? Because I’m leaving the country on a trip. I’m going to go see what’s up in the Middle East, including visiting Egypt, Israel, and other […]

Updating Website

I’m going to be working on the website today, so if you have any problems accessing the site, just come back tomorrow. –iron knee UPDATE: Well, the site was hacked pretty badly, but I managed to reconstruct it. I’m going to be looking for a new (more secure) place to host this blog.
