More fun than Atlantis

I love conspiracy theories. Not because they're likely to be true, but because they'rewonderful ways of linking seemingly disparate pieces of information together to create a story. Kids like to sit in circles while someone tells them a tale of an elephant who's lost its balloon, and adult paranoiacs sit hunched over their computers while someone tells them a story of how the entire world is secretly run by a committee that hides itself behind the innocent facade of the Ugandan Plumbers Association.

So, I have to present this latest theory about the origins of Belle de Jour - LinkMachineGo has discovered links between Sarah Champion and Andrew 'Me hates bloggers! They stole the precious Google!' Orlowski. (via Troubled Diva, who echoes my thoughts: 'The conspiracy theory that logically follows from Darren's findings is so delicious that I find myself longing for it to be true.'
