Hmmmmm... Links

Specials today at Le Swag Blog include links, with relish on the side. Served in a series of courses, these provide a melange of flavors and seasoned by our chef's pallete of sensory goodness. Some savory, others spicy hot, these enhance our daily specials and revolving entrees that discerning epicureans have come to enjoy. More than just meat-and-potatoes nutritious, these links include confections and garnishes to round out your digestive experience. Many come paired with an expertly chosen whine. Bon appetit.

BLOG'S NODS
Tagline remarks that this swag blog "Sprinkles the links like the free candy at the Ice Cream Factory. They're just everywhere through every entry, which turns this from something kinda interesting into something with a lot higher clickability factor." Also: "Someone had the brilliant idea to write about all the free crap people send Variety" said Scallion Pancakes; Amy Langfield with a wedding story, LAObserved observed us first wethinks; swag envy from Brendoman; these referencing Variety blogland as a whole: WeblogHype with CyberJournalist, CinemaMinima and OnlineJournalism.com making note; stretching context here. Se habla blog? Si!: "Sobre los elementos promocionales de las películas que elaboran los estudios." Help here.

As Fred Allen said: "Imitation is the sincerest form of television." Thus, this ... either that or it's a random notion striking more than once at more than one place. Details pending.
