We’ve gotten a spike in e-mails lately asking about registration and now MM is getting pestered at her site about it, so we bow to demand. The window is open; click to read our terms of use and then click to sign up. Would-be trolls are respectfully requested not to waste our time or their own.

Feel free to use this as an open thread for headlines or the topic of your choice. For suggested reading material, here’s your op-ed of the day.

Update (12:25 a.m.): Registration is now closed. Thanks to everyone who signed up. Welcome aboard.

Would-be trolls are respectfully requested not to waste our time or their own.

Yeah, like that’ll happen. Hope you got your banhammer handy. Good op-ed from WaPo, though. It’s all common sense to anybody that isn’t a surrender monkey, but it’s always good to hear it from someone who’s been there.

ReubenJCogburn on June 25, 2007 at 8:14 AM

Welcome yggdrasil!

RushBaby on June 25, 2007 at 8:21 AM

Darn, I’ve become that much less special now. :( CLOSE THE REGISTRATIONS!

Vincenzo on June 25, 2007 at 8:22 AM

Awesome, Awesome indeed. Glad to be on HotAir.

BKennedy on June 25, 2007 at 8:24 AM

Woot! Now I can finally comment!

atadOFF on June 25, 2007 at 8:31 AM

Finally- I love this site and the bloggers. First site that I read each day, even before Rush!!!

trainwife1962 on June 25, 2007 at 8:31 AM

Whew, Thank you. I thought I was going to go stir crazy not being able to comment.

Supkem on June 25, 2007 at 8:32 AM

Asher on June 25, 2007 at 8:33 AM

dansolis on June 25, 2007 at 8:33 AM

So WHERE do we sign up to comment on MM’s site???

pjcomix on June 25, 2007 at 8:37 AM

“Would-be trolls are respectfully requested not to waste our time or their own.”

Congress should take a lesson….

locomotivebreath1901 on June 25, 2007 at 8:39 AM

OH Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!

Auralae on June 25, 2007 at 8:50 AM

Fred!

Good to be part of the smart class now.

Digger on June 25, 2007 at 8:51 AM

Nifty!!!

Now mutterings and mumbled rants can be preserved for all posterity instead of simply having my wife looking at me funny out of the corner of her eye…

BahbeC on June 25, 2007 at 8:52 AM

Sup peeps

mythicknight on June 25, 2007 at 8:53 AM

ncc770 on June 25, 2007 at 9:11 AM

Howdy Folks. Some of you may know me from LGF.

Killgore Trout on June 25, 2007 at 9:12 AM

How is everybody signing up? I went to the MM site and it is still closed for registration? I feel left out.

I WANT MY MOMMMMMMYYYY!!!!

mythicknight on June 25, 2007 at 9:13 AM

Testing, testing.

Insomniac on June 25, 2007 at 9:14 AM

I just registered. I have been wanting to register here for about 3 months. I look forward to getting to know you guys!

Canerican on June 25, 2007 at 9:15 AM

Hey, this thing is on! Thanks, AP!

Insomniac on June 25, 2007 at 9:16 AM

Killgore Trout on June 25, 2007 at 9:12 AM

A fellow lizard!!! Delighted you are here.

RushBaby on June 25, 2007 at 9:17 AM

whew….tough login….is it just me, or does this site load somewhat slowly?

Anyway, nice to be here! (or anywhere, frankly)

Keith_Z on June 25, 2007 at 9:17 AM

I have that special tingly feeling inside, like when I finally managed to catch an LGF opening off-hand. Rock on \m/

mythicknight on June 25, 2007 at 9:18 AM

It took long enough. Thanks so much for doing this.

Complete7 on June 25, 2007 at 9:20 AM

Thank you!

mythicknight on June 25, 2007 at 9:18 AM

LGF is great, but it’s all-islam, all the time. They completely missed the Anna Nicole Smith drama, for example..

What was Charles thinking?

Keith_Z on June 25, 2007 at 9:21 AM

Wayne Campbell and Garth Algar put it best,
“We’re not worthy, We’re not worthy”
Thank you for the opportunity. I’ll do my best to make Ya’ll proud.

Guest1.1 on June 25, 2007 at 9:21 AM

Hi, Killgore. Morning, RushBaby.

You beat me in, as usual.

Hey, I don’t mind. I’m just glad I can finally jopin in over here. :-)

cheers

RushBaby,
Thanks, it’s nice to be here.

Killgore Trout on June 25, 2007 at 9:22 AM

Welcome to all the new users!

amerpundit on June 25, 2007 at 9:23 AM

Woo-hoo! I’ve waited MONTHS for this! Thanks, MM, Allah, everybody at Hot Air. I won’t comment often (note the moniker) but just knowing I can is comforting.

Lurking Vet on June 25, 2007 at 9:24 AM

Thank you so much! I love Hot Air!

mimi1220 on June 25, 2007 at 9:25 AM

jopin= join.

First post, first typo.

Business as usual for me.

Nevertheless, thank you, Mrs. Malkin, and Allahpundit, and all, for letting me in.

I will do my best to properly fulfill the trust.

cheers

mgtanner on June 25, 2007 at 9:28 AM

Today in history:
On June 25, 1876, George Armstrong Custer and the 265 men under his command lost their lives in the Battle of Little Big Horn, often referred to as Custer’s Last Stand.

Actium on June 25, 2007 at 9:28 AM

Thank you.

OrthodoxRobert on June 25, 2007 at 9:30 AM

Have been waiting a long time to at least say what a great sight this is. Thank you.

ricelchew on June 25, 2007 at 9:32 AM

When does the hazing begin?

natesnake on June 25, 2007 at 9:32 AM

I’m in! Thanks for opening registration!

krabbas on June 25, 2007 at 9:34 AM

eon, Howdy. It’s nice to see some more familiar nics.

Killgore Trout on June 25, 2007 at 9:34 AM

Actium

You’re right. The moral being, small unit armed with single-shot breechloaders vs. much larger unit armed with high-firepower weapons (repeaters + horse bows) = no contest.

Custer has always interested me, mainly because we’re both from Ohio.

cheers

eon on June 25, 2007 at 9:37 AM

Wow….after all these months of sitting, screaming, snickering and smiling in silence as I read these Hot Air stories and commentary, I’M IN! I feel so, so vital!

PatrickS on June 25, 2007 at 9:38 AM

Welcome aboard new HotAir commenters !

Maxx on June 25, 2007 at 9:38 AM

When will registration be open again at MM? Just thought I’d pester you here about registration over there. Only seemed fair.

Candy Slice on June 25, 2007 at 9:39 AM

Yay! Finally :)

rosewaning on June 25, 2007 at 9:40 AM

Awesomeness!!

TheGoblinKing on June 25, 2007 at 9:41 AM

Finally! Yippee!!!

mhgoldwing on June 25, 2007 at 9:42 AM

Thanks! Registered at MM and HotAir. I can now die a happy man … after I post a few inane comments first, though.

Rod on June 25, 2007 at 9:44 AM

Well, I would have loved to register at MM.com, but I usually check here, and by the time I checked there, it was over. Had I been told here, I would have been there, then I could be both here and there.

Almost as good as being everywhere.

manwithblackhat on June 25, 2007 at 9:44 AM

Cool, been waiting for this for a long time. Now I don’t have to just yell at my monitor anymore!!!!!!!!!!!

conservnut on June 25, 2007 at 9:45 AM

Welcome all new commenters, and beware the humping robot.

Limerick on June 25, 2007 at 9:46 AM

I received my password. When do I learn the secret handshake?:)

Clink on June 25, 2007 at 9:46 AM

Success!

tad on June 25, 2007 at 9:46 AM

WOW! My two favorite sites in one week!
Thanks

Hello, new people.

Krydor on June 25, 2007 at 10:08 AM

So happy to be hear! Thankyou so much ! I’ve been wanting to register for a long time! Praise be to Allah-Pundit, MM and all!

Nyog_of_the_Bog on June 25, 2007 at 10:08 AM

Hooray! Go FRED!

Frank Nitti on June 25, 2007 at 10:08 AM

All Right, I can comment.

The op-ed by Pete Hegseth is spot-on. Our task is to make the kool-aid drinkers see the obvious.

The next time that Reid or Pelosi tells the world that we have lost the war in Iraq could Hot Air link to the coverage in the Arab press? Every time Nancy Pelosi says “we need to send a message to the President” I log on to Al Jazeera to see the message she is sending to the rest of the world.

TunaTalon on June 25, 2007 at 10:09 AM

Now that I can post comments I suppose I’ll get no work done (as if just reading them wasn’t time-consuming enough!)

kjspeedial on June 25, 2007 at 10:09 AM

Allahpundit Akbar.
That says it all.

TheSitRep on June 25, 2007 at 10:10 AM

Thank you for listening to us over on MM’s website. I’m on this website (and MM’s) daily! My first source for information. It will be great to join in on the fun.

You all do a great job. Keep it up!

ConMom on June 25, 2007 at 10:11 AM

Yay!

madne0 on June 25, 2007 at 10:13 AM

Darn.

Just in, and now I have to leave. the house, that is.

See you all later, folks.

Hey, my first post on Hot Air. Yayyyyy!

kayawanee on June 25, 2007 at 10:14 AM

Finally! I’ve been waiting for what seems like forever :D

Darksbane on June 25, 2007 at 10:15 AM

Yayyy for meeeee!

kayawanee on June 25, 2007 at 10:16 AM

Fantastic!! I’ve waiting a long time too! Thanks!

philgress on June 25, 2007 at 10:17 AM

Ref story MSNBC vs IranianSunshineNews……
So the race is on as to who is the biggest Anti-Semite news network. Wonderful.

Limerick on June 25, 2007 at 10:19 AM

Awesome! Thanks for having me on board. Semper Fi!

DThorn on June 25, 2007 at 10:21 AM

I thought it was just me.

hoser on June 25, 2007 at 10:21 AM

Welcome to all the newbies at this site! Especially to our new liberal friends (I’m not liberal, but we need more diversity of opinion on this site).

Feel free to use this as an open thread for headlines or the topic of your choice.

What about a “support iPhone for Allah” post campaign? Perhaps your loyal fans can donate some pocket change (via paypal) to support your habit. (so you’ll stop talking about it)

I’ll start it off with $10. Anyone else game for this?

Darnell Clayton on June 25, 2007 at 10:22 AM

I question the timing.

Thank you!
