Liberation!
June 23rd, 2006In a daring midnight raid that started at 4pm, I successfully liberated my clogs from the clutches of evil. It was a hard fought battle, a battle for freedom and dignity. I had air support and support of other kinds. Thank you all for your support.
Behold the blurbomat Clog Army’s first victory:

Congrats! I always love seeing Good triumphing over Evil. (Not that Dooce is evil but her actions were! Clog stealing! For shame!)

Sniff….sniff…..is that…..ketchup I smell?!?! Mmm….ketchup….

Remember not to lord your victory - wear the clogs in moderation…
Yeah for Comfy Feet!

Seriously, though - it does look like you just finished with a bloody battle. What’s that all over your face and shirt, chocolate? Did you squirt her with chocolate syrup until she gave them up?
Torture is NOT the answer, Blurb!

I love how you’re wearing one croc and holding the other!
June 23rd, 2006 at 10:04 am
jesus. wow. i mean, well done, getting them back?
June 23rd, 2006 at 10:04 am
No doubt this was a well planned and highly coordinated rescue effort–even the orchestra showed up on time.
Remember, revenge is a dish best served cold.

Congrats! I should remind you that Tim lives in NASHVILLE. Franklin, TN to be exact. This is a place where his clogs are referred to as “Those Pansy-Ass Cloggs”. I’m sure your clogs are much better and worth the fight.

Hooray! A prouder more victorious day I can not recall.
Do you have a speech prepared?
June 23rd, 2006 at 10:12 am
Well done, my man. I am going to assume you did not have to use the resources of Halliburton to attain this victory.
The prog-clog revolution thanks you. You’re like our very own Patrick Henry. Except living. And with internet access.

Hip-Hip-Hoooray for the Clog Army!!!!! Great job!!! Excellent valor!!!!
That was a great mini-movie!!! Keep those coming.
June 23rd, 2006 at 10:17 am
I had no idea it would be so brutal!
You look like you’re covered in A1. It was worse than we thought!!
June 23rd, 2006 at 10:21 am
Victory at any cost!!!
Hurray!
I’d say we could run in the streets, but that’s the one draw back to clogs, they ain’t too good fer runnin’.

Dare I say “Mission Accomplished?”
I like how the Clog Army has its own videographer.
June 23rd, 2006 at 10:37 am
Woooo! The world is a little safer for clog wearers!
June 23rd, 2006 at 10:38 am
Excellent! Was a peace treaty signed? Or was this just one battle in what could be a long, drawn-out Clog War?
June 23rd, 2006 at 10:41 am
I knew this day would come.
It’s like President Bush tells us: Evil will not prevail. (unless you think President Bush is evil, then it appears it has prevailed, indeed) But anyway, those evil clog takers did not prevail this time.
I’m going to go shoot a gun in the air right now.

Sorry about the double post, but I just saw the video on dooce.
A fine performance, Mr. Armstrong. It conjures images of your turn as a tyrannical roommate on PLA some 13 years ago.
Bravo!

VICTORY IS OURS!
Except I was confused as Heather sort of implies that her side won and you died on the front lawn(much to the amusement of the neighbours)
But now that it has been cleared up and I realise our side has come out victorious Im going to go throw some shredded paper out of the office window!
HOORAY!
PS. she still should atleast put them on her feet and discover true comfort.

06/23/06 is now officially known as V-C Day - A day that will be remembered and celebrated by the proud members of the Clog Army for generations to come!

Oh thank God. Now I can stop watching CNN incessantly.
Died laughing over here in California.
June 23rd, 2006 at 11:01 am
Oh my word, Jon!
Did you fish that godforsaken crocK out of this:

If so, that is not victory my friend, that is only freeing one of two POW’s.
June 23rd, 2006 at 11:16 am
You guys are a riot! Are there clog army t-shirts available?
June 23rd, 2006 at 11:21 am
HEEHEE…. The only thing that would make that video _MORE_ perfect would be Leta running up to Jon’s “body” screaming “DAAADEEEEEE!!!!!” and throwing herself on his still and lifeless form. LMAO.
So happy for your victory Jon. VIVA LA CLOG!

Awesome. On so many levels.
