The secret of bloggery
I think I've finally figured out the nature of bloggers. We're Eddie Haskells: faux-charming and really nasty at one and the same moment.
Our modus operandi could best be described as "let's you and him fight.''
We write a little something,opiniated and, it is to be hoped, with some degree of wit, and then watch strangers battle it out with each other. Pretty good deal, if you ask me.

I think you mean "opinionated" and I think all of us are just cowards behind our anon. blogs and passive-aggressive which makes us braver than we'd be in real life.
Well-written blog submissions promote a felicity of expression that is often lacking in conventional print media. The blog format allows "ordinary folk" to reach a wide audience generally reserved for ordained pundits like yourself. I remain anonymous, but I don't get paid for this sort of thing. I don't begrudge you your status; please don't begrudge me mine.
Eddie Haskell. Bravo Riley!
I think riley posts as anonymous to respond to blogs he finds offensive without having to face them straight on as himself..that's his secret of bloggery.
Yes Reverend Riley I totally agree with you and my what a handsome tie you have with that suit.(Exit Reverend Riley). Hey Wally, what's with that little creep brother of yours?I could smack him right in the head.
