Welcome to the Articlechamber. As Rod Stewart said in Tonight's the Night, take off your shoes, and sit right down. The lights are low, the beat is loud, and I've got two turntables up in front of my bookcase, shades down, my voice is a Barry White basso profundo over the speakers in Club Dag...because DJ Articleman is taking your requests.
You all know the subjects about which I write, and the range of things that interest me but about which I seldom write, and the things you might like to read about but which I never write about. So if you have anything you'd like blogged, I'd like to take your requests. Please pass your notes forward to the dais.
Preferably Benjamins. Articleman does also accept Jacksons, and we'll take Hamiltons, but grudgingly. But in any event, also your notes as to what you'd like blogged.
Because DJ Articleman is at your disposal. And taking requests...

German dwarf politics
I so don't belong here.
"Why I am a Feminist" by Articleman (no, seriously). 1,000 words. Due by March 8th.
March 8? And shouldn't you set an upper limit on words, rather than an exact number? Might lead to some awkward word choice, trying to get exactly 1,000 words.
1,000 words was completely arbitrary. But March 8th wasn't. You can google it.
Ok, 1,000 words on why Orlando is a feminist by March 8, and I'm allowed to use The Google. This will help.
Extra credit for incorporating the word dwarf
And an automatic A+ if you incorporate the words politics and [deleted].
Your comment is so going to get deleted.
Well, it hasn't been yet....so let me study it, maybe take a picture of me and it together for old times' sake, before it dies a slow and agonizing death.
Apparently quick and painless
Looks like feminism is the topic, barring any last minute suggestions involving dwarves.
I protest the the abusive censorship practices of this blog! I hereby declare myself a dissident and appeal to the blogosphere for asylum. In short, I'm leaving this thread, and I'm taking my dwarves with me.
I have substituted abusive for absuve.
Too late. I'm out of here, fascist!
I can put back the typo if you come back.
Artie, that was your decision, to remove the [deleted] word? WTF is up with you? First, # 4, and now this?? I'm beginning to worry about you, honey.
It was absuve, Lis. Totally absuve.
But I have restored what was [deleted].
I want to vote for the most well-endowed German Dwarf in the next election, then.
If you're leaving, can we toss your dwarves out too? Or is dwarf-tossing outlawed in blog-world. And did LisB just say [deleted]? Again???? Gawd you people, clean this place up.
Oh, Quinn, go suck on a [deleted] through your [deleted] or something new and different...wait, if the [deleted] sucks, does that mean you have to pay it for a [deleted]?
No to talk dwarves especially German dwarves. That is way to close to home for me. I request a grown-up discussion on the prejudice this country shows toward coin money. Our national mint has stood on it's head for years sending out one dollar coin design after another trying to please the American citizen only to hear 'Thanks but no thanks'. What is the problem?
Change we can believe in?
Change you can count...on
I'll take on this topic, if I may.
Oops, forgot that I was boycotting this thread.
Protesting is hard.
By the way, I forgot to add that I think that you, Articaleman, are the most considerate blogger at Dagblog. The concept of taking requests from the commenters is just so nice. I noticed that some of your partners were quick to jump in and make fun but I wanted you to know how much I appreciate your hard work. Your mother would be proud.
Yeah, I know. That genghis is a real piece of work. You know what they say about one bad apple.
I was serious about feminism. I can't wait to read it!
March 8 is a long way away, Orlando.
Lis trumped me, but Change You Can Believe In is the PERFECT title for a post about our irrational love for the penny. I love Lincoln, but can we just stop carrying around our rounding errors? I'm just saying.
A penny for your thoughts, Artie? Oh, wait, with inflation, that would be $1.99 now, wouldn't it?
How about Turn and Face the Strange (Change[s])?
Nice Bowie reference, there. Orlando is right, change is heavy. Especially when you have to carry it to a Coinstar machine in a huge piggy bank.
I was not making fun whatsoever. I really want to see Articleman write about German dwarf...um...politics.
PS Watch out, he'll be along to correct your spelling of Articaleman in a second. Was that a test?
Artie has a spellchecker built in to the comments section.....it's the [deleted] checker you have to be wary of.
Hmm. And I thought all our readers were over 18. Silly me!
Mind if I open the window? I know it's cold where you are, but, um....
