It’s not really fair to let me announce a post of the month, as I always immediately reduce to picking a patrick of the month. With that bias aired, this patrick post deserves the November title for being extremely intricate (unlike the usual ham-handed parody that gets picked for PotM). That kind of detailed image work isn’t something any of the rest of us bother with anymore, and that’s what makes it so impressive.

Congratulations.

Here it is.

With any luck, you’ll never hear from me again.

Finally, ESB has useful news: Wikipedia joins the 4GET campaign.
