(see what this column can look like with quality writers!)


So. Me and Evan have had a long day, and we'll summarize by saying that probably everyone that we've written about the past couple of days probably has a really good column today, unless they're on vacation, in which case I suggest that you might want to read the many wonderful things that have been posted at FGAQ lately.


I keep telling you about Googobits. Where else can you get a post entitled "Mary Bright, 48, Curtain Maker Who Used Unorthodox Materials, Dies"?


Hey, what am I supposed to do here? Literally everybody on the recently updated list that I could write about is either on the new Virtual Occoquan or I've written about them in the past two days or they've posted notes saying they had a nice vacation and plan on writing again soon. I've looked at one new blog three times cause it's changed it's name three times...


Lisa Guernsey finally gets around to refing her NY Times article, but everyone else has refed it by now, so go there on the odd chance you haven't already seen it.


Seriously folks, this is all the excitement I can kick up tonight. This could be a lonely gig come Christmas...
 

greaper.jpg The Salon Blog Death Watch is very afraid that The Adorable Roxi Morokco may come to a tragic end before I return, and thus provide you with this link so that the carpetbaggers listed above don't have a shot at the obituary before I return. Remember, click on this link only if that adorable little sprite is in imminent danger of going down.

goodnight

An erudite law blogger: I stumbled across an incredibly well written and thoughtful weblog lately, called unbillable hours. The author (TPB, Esq.) includes a long and entertaining biography that gives you a good idea of his education, cultural influences, and experiences - all of which inform his writing, which ranges from silly to serious. (His... (Blogosphere)
