‘Snide Remarks’ + Olympics = jokes about China
Did you hear they’re having the Olympics this year? And that they’re in China? Well, then you have the background necessary to understand this week’s “Snide Remarks,” entitled “The China Monologues.”
And did you hear I’m conducting some surveys? Well I am! Many of you have responded already and have given some excellent feedback. There have been about a dozen times so far where I’ve read a comment and thought, “Wow, that’s a really good suggestion. Why didn’t I think of that before?” So thank you for your input.
If you haven’t done the surveys yet, won’t you? Please? This one is for all visitors to EricDSnider.com (that means you!); this one is for “In the Dark” subscribers; and this one is for “In the Dark” podcast listeners, whether they subscribe via iTunes or just listen to it here on the site every Friday. If all three surveys apply to you, feel free to take ‘em all. And hey, thanks!
This week’s “Snide Remarks,” including the audio version, is here.
The audio version (i.e., the podcast) is also here.

Wow. this is a blog entry that ropes in readers. “Hey, a blog note that will add even more insight into Eric D. Snider’s recent “Snide Remarks” column! No, wait, it was just another plug for those surveys I already took. Want me to take them again?”

The sole purpose of the Monday entry is usually just to alert readers to the presence of a new “Snide Remarks,” and to give the link to the podcast. (Providing the podcast link is what alerts subscribers’ podcast-gathering devices to the fact that there’s a new one to download.) The Monday blog post is often only one paragraph long and is basically a functional, housekeeping type of entry. This time, I mentioned the surveys again in case people didn’t see the previous reference to them. I apologize for forcing your eyes to gather information they had already seen and for wasting your brain’s time with duplicate data.

Well, I guess that makes sense. Sorry.
