Did gentleman farmer Sam Hill live in Tarnation, Patti?Ahem. I run the Two-Fisted Blogger. I haven't blogged much the last couple weeks because I've been busy with a blog tour. But in February I'll be swingin' for the fences once more.

The gentleman farmer, Sam Hill, lived in Natchitoches, Louisiana. ... OK, I'll give you a hint. The town is pronounced NACK-uh-tush.
Your not pulling our leg, are you? You will never guess where or how that one originated.
Ok, got it. North of Smithereens but east of Kingdom Come.
Don't know whom you are asking, but Natchitoches is the oldest city in the Louisiana Purchase.

Hey everyone. I have a blog I post on for my writing. I'm putting together a pulp series set in an alternate 1920s America where the United States has collapsed in on itself. Biplanes and skypirates and gangsters and mad scientists ensue in the golden age of adventure. A world in which my protagonist - Tommy Thunder - is joining a privateer escadrille to sweep away the skypirate plague afflicting the Caribbean...On the blog I discuss the two different worlds I bring together with my writing, Dieselpunk and Pulp, so there's a lot of stuff for people who are interested in those two topics.
It's addy is http://www.tommythunder.blogspot.com
Happy blogging :)

The design aesthetic of Dieselpunk is a lot more accessible to me than Steampunk. Good luck.

The desil-punk song of the week's pretty fun too. I'm not usually a Christina Agulera guy either.

Saint Malachy and the Prophecy of the Last PopeThe media is abuzz after the announcement of Pope Benedict’s pending retirement. Not just the usual speculation about possible candidates, what country they’re from, or whether they’ll be Italian, but also a medieval Irish saint’s prophecy about the last pope and the Biblical end of days.
