Panic Has Sent In... Oops, Nevermind... Oh Wait, Let's Out Me...

Blogger and commenter Richard Bennett notes here that an "SJ" is calling for me to be 'outed' over at Roger L. Simon's blog. Richard also notes, correctly, that "SJ" is the blogging name used by Roger's wife, Sheryl.

Pathetic... but an excellent barometer of just how desperate it's getting in Rogerland.

Anyway, let's drop the Scooter Libby clown show and cut to the chase:

Do it, Roger. Out me. Show everyone what you're made of.

Show us what New Media is all about...

Oops. My Bad: Here's "SJ's" post:

Since I'm posting here anonymously myself, it may seem hypocritical, but what I find most vile about the personal attacks and vitriol are that (aside from Ann Althouse) they usually come from anonymous posters. Even Dennis the Peasant doesn't have the guts to identify himself. Yet they attack people who are putting their own reputations on the line. One wonders what these individuals employers/clients/colleagues would think of them if they saw the kind of obsessional hatred they spew. Let me put it this way, if I knew someone was a stalker, I wouldn't go out on a date with him. I'd bet the same is true in the employment arena.

I do not take this as any sort of threat to 'out' me. Maybe others do, but I don't. So I'm going to have another Luke Ford moment here and admit I posted before had all my ducks in a row.

It's a bizarre comment, though. Both Roger and Sheryl know I'm self-employed. And of course I don't have the guts to identify myself... I support the War in Iraq from the comfort of my keyboard as well.

Interesting to see some of the comments of my former pals, too.

Having a bad night in the 'Finding Stuff' department: Here's the post from "SJ" Richard was talking about:

When Ann Althouse has a post from anonymous Dennis the Peasant (who I would love to see outed so that his CPA clients could find out about the derangement of the individual who prepares their tax returns!)in which he jokes about shooting Roger's dog, I think things have gone way too far. These people sound like Peter Braunstein.

My, my, my...

Well, here it is, Sheryl, wife of Roger...

Kenton E. Kelly, CPA

Big. Deal.

Update: Wow. All my neo-con clients just fired me. Any of you Lefties hanging around here need a CPA? I'm only slightly deranged...

Update the Second: Here's a picture of me vacationing in Hollywood last year with a few of my close personal friends that I've betrayed and been rude to. I'm the one who looks like Karl Rove (with hair). I don't remember who the other guy is...

So if you're in Central Ohio, and you see a guy who looks like Karl Rove (with hair) who is acting really weird, it's probably me... Kenton E. Kelly, CPA... who has no clients anymore.

Update the Third: There seems to be some confusion here. The gentlemen sitting in the foreground is not DTP/KEK. That is Charles Johnson. I may be batshit crazy, but even I wouldn't wear that shirt.

Update the Fourth: Funniest email of the day: "You shouldn't have dragged Mrs. Simon into this."

Update the Fifth: Funniest notion: That my clients would either (a) read my blog, or (b) care about my blog. Christ, I've managed to get exactly one of my friends interested in my blog. The moment I mention it to the rest, their eyes glaze over and they display a polite but wan smile. Most people, outside of news junkies, politics junkies and similar social cripples really couldn't give a shit about the blogosphere or the morons who inhabit it. Some folks need to get out more... and get over themselves.

Update the Sixth: If you don't believe Dennis The Peasant is Kenton E. Kelly, CPA, email Roger L. Simon and ask him to confirm it. It's the least he can do... other than putting a cap on the jug of Muscatel in the kitchen, perhaps.

Update the Seventh: Here's another picture of me. I'm showing off my assets to a few of my clients, in fact:

From their reaction, it would seem I'm undercapitalized! (accounting humor, ya gotta love it...)

And here's me with a dog that I didn't shoot:

That's it for now. It's time for OSU-Michigan.

Come to think of it, the only thing anyone could do to get me in real trouble with most of my clients is convince them I was a Michigan fan.

Update the Eighth: Should there be an independent prosecutor empowered to investigate the outing of Dennis The Peasant? Oh sure, I outed myself, but that isn't the point. I was, after all, an agent of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy. And Judy Miller is hanging around in the wings on this thing. Who knew what when? Inquiring minds want to know!

I think that making a joke about killing someone's dog is pretty sick and shameful. And I imagine you do too, or else you'd be posting all your attacks using your real name.

[GuardDog]

I agree. Cats, now they're fair game...

[Jane Doe]

She also made this post:

[GuardDog]

Who is Peter Braunstein? Is he a dog murderer?

[DennisThePeasant]

Sheryl-

I only used it because the semen and pus joke had already been taken.

[Cecily and Gwendolen]

We always thought it was Of crucial Importance that your Being be named Earnest.

But how wrong we were. Kenton. Kenton is a great name. And Kenton E. Kelly. Superb. Your dogs, if someone doesn't shoot them, are Ronald and Nancy. Even without knowing your wife's name we hazard to guess you very well might have the most well named family in America.

We're melting.

[Guesst]

SJ stated the obvious. Anyone who does taxes year after year by choice, would have to be deranged.

Apparently you can insult Roger all you want-but involve the dog, and your ass is grass.

[DennisThePeasant]

How do you girls feel about meatloaf?

[DennisThePeasant]

Actually, Roger's dog is great. A very sweet greyhound named "Zane Greyhound".

[GuardDog]

Dude, I can't believe you outed yourself. The SPCA will never let you adopt now. What were you thinking?

[DennisThePeasant]

I just shot him a little...

[C and G]

"How do you girls feel about meatloaf?"

We're English, we eat worse everyday.

(It is rumored though, thanks to Algernon, that Gwendolyn "is devoted to bread and butter" (page 3, Dover Thrift Edition))

[Elmo]

I got half way through your above post (I'll finish). After just gettin here from Jeff G. (man, he and them folks ain't proud). And now it loks like people are threatening you?

Since I don't have anything nice to say about those that have lost their decency, and really don't want any of those downward empty spirals headed thisaway. I won't say anymore.

But you can guess what I'm thinking. You can guess what I'm feeling.

[Oscar W.]

Sorry about the girls Dennis. Good show by the way. You definitely won this round.

"The blogger that Dared to Speak His Name." It's a start. A work in progress. The scene that takes place at the Simon household could become my best.

[DennisThePeasant]

Oh... I thought they were the girls from "The Odd Couple", hence the offer of meatloaf.

Laugh. Or I'll shot your dog, too.

[C and G]

Too late. Miss Prism shot them last Spring.

[Guesst]

btw: Peter Braunstein is a perverted NY maniac who dressed up like a firefighter, set two fires, and got into his coworker's apartment to sexually assault her by pretending to be there to put out the fire.

I can't see how that ties in to Roger's dog Zane Greyhound-much.

[DennisThePeasant]

We need to cut Sheryl some slack. She seems to be under some stress.

[DennisThePeasant]

I mean, all she did was compare me to an arsonist/rapist...

[Elmo]

"Peter Braunstein"? I blogged about that (should have remembered).

How evolved .... associating Dennis with him. How erudite and sophisticated. How worldly.

[Kathy Herrmann]

Stop the presses! Meester Kenton has a more serious problem to face with his clients than being outed as He Who Rags On OSM.

My god, near as I can tell, Kenton/Dennis has long hair. Is that even legal for a CPA?

[the illavator]

Er, that's the other guy.

[Kenton's Barber]

Kenton has hair, yes. But long, no. The long haired guy is Charles. They're in Roger's house. That might be the actual computer on which Sheryl typed that Kenton was like an arsonist/rapist for telling an I shot their dog joke. The thumbs up and smiles, those were the good old days. (Although, not half as funny as today, those good old days.)

[kenton's Barber]

p.s. Roger took the picture. Sheryl said "Cheese."

[Kathy Herrmann]

Whew! Well as long as Kenton/Dennis wears chino pants to work, rather than jeans, then I guess his CPA status is safe.

So I'll bring up my other thought. While Kenton has included pinches of bile as part of his posts, he's also made an ongoing and salient analysis of the OSM business model debacle.

Kind of the sort of business acumen one hopes for in one's financial advisor. But then, maybe OSM isn't wowed by business advisors with business acumen. Call me crazy, but I rather look for it in mine.
