My competitor!

By the way, City Pages has a section listing the Most Popular Articles, and The Mad Scientist is right near the top. I'm getting clobbered by the latest Savage Love. Curse you, Dan Savage!

Man, like I'm sure I could totally out-bizarre him if I were to write his column…

Are you telling me City Page's most popular column is Dan Savage's lullaby? Sometimes people are just incomprehensible, I guess...

Congrat's PZ.
In my small opinion, you deserve the accolades.
Since Steven J. left us, I haven't anyone else so thought provoking that I enjoy reading as much.

Rather than write his column, why not send in a letter of your own? Something along the lines of

"Dear Dan, my cephalopod life partner has lost all interest in sex....." etc....

Congratulations on your fame, PZ! But you must realize that Dan Savage is quite the hero these days, especially since you also grew up in the same area and watched him come up from his own humble beginnings.

But I also like the cephalopod sex letter idea .. do you suppose that Dan would publish such a letter, along with his response on, say, April Fool's Day?

I think that your blog and Savage's collumn have more in common than one might think. That piece on spiders biting off their testicles' comes to mind...

I wrote Savage once, asking for advice about a quirky fetish of my former boyfriend, a bisexual 70's porno producer by the name of Bob Beckelis.

But he didn't bite.

You could do worse than have Dan Savage as competition; it could be some religious nut with an ID fixation and a secret stash of kiddie porn.

Think of it this way: your almost as popular as a nationally syndicated sex columnist who dispenses humor, vitriol and sound advice and enjoys skewering nincompoops as much as you do.

Perhaps bring "Dr. Tatiana" into the joke, by reference or collaboration?

i thought that doctor tatiana already did that.

Mmmm... bedbug sex. Ya know PZ, you could write a column with fake letters from various members of the animal kingdom, and then give them your advice.

"Man, like I'm sure I could totally out-bizarre him if I were to write his column…"

Sounds like you should swap columns for a day! grin
