Quite frankly, I&#8217;m not satisfied with that.  I have plans to move up the rankings.  I think, in advance of the inevitable re-polling Conan will do to reaffirm his position at the top of the table, I will embark on a campaign of pro-active hugging in order to build up a storehouse of positivity among the huggable blogging community.  I will hug freely and with abandon.<br \/>\nAnd, when I have lured the <a href=http:\/\/www.stonesoup.co.nz\/dollhouse\/>person in the fourth spot<\/a> into a false sense of security by my general hugging, and I have my arms wrapped around her, <b>I will strike<\/b>.<br \/>\nShe will feel no pain.
