But to my dismay, I discovered that famed warblogger <a href=\"http:\/\/www.inksyndicate.com\/warbot\/warbot.pl\">R. Robot<\/a> had the following to say about me:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>When will Evan come clean about the way he slanders President Bush?<\/p>\n<p>I suppose some notice should be paid to the performance that the bloviating Evan delivered Monday on <cite>The Late Show<\/cite>. &#8220;Is there any evidence that Iraq &#8216;thinks they might want to team up with terrorists,&#8217; as the President said?&#8221; he said. For shame! This kind of untrustworthy hatred of America is as degenerate as it is weaseling. Evan, breathtakingly, is a formerly important loser.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Wow, pretty harsh.  Still, even I have to admit that it was a well-deserved takedown. Advantage: Blogosphere!<\/p>\n<p>In truth, I have a weakness for random-text scripts such as R. Robot.  In fact, I&#8217;ve already installed the <a href=\"http:\/\/dev.null.org\/dadaengine\/\">Dada Engine<\/a> on this site &#8212; in fact, right now I&#8217;m running one of the default scripts to generate random legal jargon for <a href=\"\/Mike\/\">Crazy Mike&#8217;s Shack-o-Law<\/a>.  Okay, so it <em>is<\/em> a default script, not so impressive.  But I&#8217;m also currently working on my own custom scripts.  Rest assured, I have big plans for the Dada Engine.
