Conan OBrien Sorta Looks Like Finnish President Tarja Halonen
Conan O’Brien Sorta Looks Like Finnish President Tarja Halonen

I know, I know… this is a cheesy steal. I stole this idea off of some popular blog that does this everyday. I was trying to shamelessly get blog traffic. ~Scholar Mel Sept 04, 2011
So what do you think? Does Conan look like President Halonen?
[This is part of The Unappreciated Blog Posts series]
From what I have seen most people don't want to read a ton. They want to read something that is super quick.
People don't read blogs, they skim blogs.
I know how you feel Duncanr. I have taken the time to write blog posts that I feel like I should have made money on.
What do I get in return for all of that hard work? No comments and no money :-(
Golden Rule of blogging: People love cotten candy :-)
I'll take Conan and raise you Duncan/Ayatollah
They do look similar. I would need to hear her tell a joke or see him lead Finland to really make an accurate judgment of whether they were the same person.
I would love to see him lead Finland. Actually why don't we make Conan the King of all of Europe! :-)

What the heck is Team Tartar? Again, people, I was sheltered has a child and may need assistance in a few things. ;-)
I think Conan had come up with a 'Team Coco' thing for his fans... sorry, Mel... that last comment wasn't really worded to well...
:)
D-oh! I probably also should have mentioned I was trying to create a similar word play with 'Tarja' and Tartar... yikes... I'm really doing well today, aren't I?!
:)
an "H" changes the whole meaning of what I was trying to say. :-)
Thanks for explaining your word play.

Good Lord, are you people REALLY so young you don't remember The Iron Lady? Good grief, what is this, a blog for 20-somethings?
(Stomps off, grumbling about "young punks".) ;)
He does look like her. In drag. But I'm not sure if he's in drag or she's in drag. Is it that he looks like a woman or she looks like a man. I can barely tell them apart
Recycling old blog posts - what a great idea !
(wish I'd thought of it first)
Most of the drivel I put up in Madhatters takes all of 5-10 minutes to dash off - without much thought (often spend longer trying to come up with a clever title than I do on the post itself).
Yet occasionally I'll take the time to compose something properly - doing background reading, planning the structure of the post, presenting the arguments in a logical manner, spending time to select just the right words to convey the meaning I intend, searching for just the right graphic to illustrate the post, only to find I get a dozen or more comments on something I spent 10 minutes on and no friggin comments on a post I spent 1/2 a day preparing. Ggrrrr - bloody readers !!!
