Chaka himself wouldn't suggest such a thing. <BR/><BR/>Chaka would suggest that the TEDS-based authors of fakecarson do some writing for The Graduate Scrawl. In fact, he's a little miffed that they didn't write for him when he was the editor.Chakahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14405341165307564619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561277303886972761.post-33615367405999108092007-09-18T21:42:00.000-05:002007-09-18T21:42:00.000-05:00Dear Awesome Carson,Now that you’ve officially tam...Dear Awesome Carson,<BR/><BR/>Now that you’ve officially tamed the internet and made your announcement that you’ll be leaving in your usual grand style, I was wondering if I could ask you for a little advice. You see, I started a blog just a couple short weeks after you, and while yours has had massive success and a continually growing audience, I am still working to get my blog off the ground. <BR/><BR/>I’ve tried to emulate you in every way I know how: I’m currently attending TEDS to take classes from you; I’ve changed my name to initials only (I even have two of the three right!); I’ve discussed John Piper on my blog; I’ve unabashedly used your own blog to advertise for mine (fyi: http://cramercomments.blogspot.com/ …ahem…); I've tried to wrap my mind around Calvinist theology (for goodness sake); and, alas, I've even attempted at humor a time or two. <BR/><BR/>So, I’m wondering if in your last week of blogging you could reflect on that elusive element that sets your blogging apart from all the rest of us peons and imitators. Please, leave us with one last word of wisdom that we can take with us as we blog for the Kingdom!<BR/><BR/>Humbly yours,<BR/><BR/>D.C. Cramer<BR/><BR/>P.S. Will your ghost writers be doing any other blogging that we should know about?Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08978728795312007392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561277303886972761.post-51248987674401544382007-09-18T21:30:00.000-05:002007-09-18T21:30:00.000-05:00anony said:"the uptight and too serious have trium...anony said:<BR/><BR/>"the uptight and too serious have triumphed again.<BR/><BR/>admirable reasoning, but the constructive work of helping the control obsessed evangelical culture calm down and get over it self lost a great teacher in this blog.<BR/><BR/>the fact that some TEDS admin types will take offense at that statement proves my point.<BR/><BR/>thanks though for confirming the deep cultural hangups of our little stream of the Church.<BR/><BR/>They don't fail to disappoint, even if you did...<BR/><BR/>so sad."<BR/><BR/><BR/>I must agree, <BR/><BR/>Laughing yet Sad in Louisville.RonKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17297654202504994941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561277303886972761.post-29845854767690379112007-09-18T19:53:00.000-05:002007-09-18T19:53:00.000-05:00the uptight and too serious have triumphed again.a...the uptight and too serious have triumphed again.<BR/><BR/>admirable reasoning, but the constructive work of helping the control obsessed evangelical culture calm down and get over it self lost a great teacher in this blog.<BR/><BR/>the fact that some TEDS admin types will take offense at that statement proves my point.<BR/><BR/>thanks though for confirming the deep cultural hangups of our little stream of the Church.<BR/><BR/>They don't fail to disappoint, even if you did...<BR/><BR/>so sad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561277303886972761.post-40562289991648461282007-09-18T19:20:00.001-05:002007-09-18T19:20:00.001-05:00I have loved your site and will miss it!Jim Champi...I have loved your site and will miss it!<BR/><BR/>Jim ChampionAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561277303886972761.post-64613334277719131242007-09-18T19:20:00.000-05:002007-09-18T19:20:00.000-05:00It is sad to see you folks pack it in.

If we can not laugh at ourselves then we need to rip the humor out of all other areas of life, because it would remain as only a cruel gesture toward any one else.<BR/><BR/>So here is to "the Don," may the peace of God infect you with the joy of having made us remember that we are hilarious most of the time. No matter what life throws at us, we just do and say funny stuff.<BR/><BR/>Thanks.Nauvoo Pastorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07244280287666559104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561277303886972761.post-42847017147094090012007-09-18T19:16:00.000-05:002007-09-18T19:16:00.000-05:00well, i guess it's time for someone to start fakem...well, i guess it's time for someone to start fakemouw.blogspot.com or fakemohler.blogspot.com.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561277303886972761.post-35069979340485876112007-09-18T19:00:00.000-05:002007-09-18T19:00:00.000-05:00this is a sad, sad day... one of the highlights of...this is a sad, sad day... one of the highlights of Fall semester as a teds student is being taken away.... thank you men and/or women who have done this. just know that on behalf of myself and certain OTHERS at trinity we give you thanks. gloria a Dios!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561277303886972761.post-36768669511391031742007-09-18T18:51:00.000-05:002007-09-18T18:51:00.000-05:00Please don't shut down.

I get a lot of time on the internet and I try to keep to things of eternal value. But the evangelical blogosphere is so darn serious. You have been a welcome relief. I was so sad the day that purgatorio1.com went down. This will be another sad day if you shut down. <BR/><BR/>I beg you, oh great dragon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561277303886972761.post-20861511794143374192007-09-18T18:50:00.000-05:002007-09-18T18:50:00.000-05:00NNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORonKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17297654202504994941noreply@blogger.com
