This won't post to its proper place place over here. Moveable type can't handle 40+ links, it appears.
Okay. Here goes again:
I have the phrase "Skull and Bones" indexed in my "Bloglines" folder.
The sudden uptick since Rush Limbaugh's comments... are quite staggering.
The attributed sources:
Media Matters
In chronological order:
Tue, 4 May 2004 04:03 PM Rush Limbaugh (This is Wonkette's post, btw)
Related / Unrelated joke made before Hannity / Colmes. May have been inspired by Rush. This was picked up by Little Green Footballs. http://keywords.oxus.net/ posted the same sort of idea as I did (after seeing Media Matters website with the Hannity and Colmes quip.)
Disclaimer:
I leave myself open to accusations of a majour blogger faux pas -- "fishing". All are free to penalize me within their own blog-jurisdiction.
When "schadenfreude" pops up suddenly, I'll do another post like this one.
