Just got the news from insty that today is Blogger Appreciation Day. So come on, you guys. It's time to appreciate me. You only have an hour and 15 minutes left to express your appreciation.
Meanwhile, many the bloggers I cherish have moved to Facebook, Twitter, and even Flickr. Do they still count as bloggers?
Another meme, courtesy of Father Brown: I have to pick 15 blogs:
This award acknowledges the values that every blogger shows in his/her effort to transmit cultural, ethical, literary and personal values every day.
The rules to follow are:
1) Accept the award, post it on your blog together with the name of the person that has granted the award and his or her blog link.
2) Pass the award to other 15 blogs that are worthy of this acknowledgment.
Okay, here goes:
decision '08 (time for a new name, though);
Jules Crittenden;
Mark Steyn;
15 minute lunch;
Iowahawk;
scrappleface;
gates of Vienna;
passing parade;
Jack;
powerline;
Wyatt Earp;
Michael Yon
citizen of the month;
Lileks;
Tim Blair.
There are many more excellent blogs I follow, so I set myself some criteria: I generally am prejudiced toward blogs written by one individual. I decided not to include any Delaware blogs--there are too many good ones. I also tried to exclude blogs whose owners only blog once in a while and those who have terminated their blogs.
Anyway, there you have it. Whew! It was exhausting, posting all those llinks.
the scholastic scribe lists her favorite blogs:
An interesting idea. I can't wait to visit all the blogs she lists.
My own choices, among many: 15 minute lunch; lileks; tim blair; Iowahawk; the nose on your face; not necessarily in that order.
Whew! I'm bushed! Putting in all those links is not easy.
Wyatt Earp has been kind enough to nominate me for the blogger reflection award.
Like every other honor, this has work attached to it. I have to name five other bloggers. OK, here's a list of a few (but by no means all) of my favorites:
Johnny Virgil at 15-minute lunch. JV lives near the Canadian border. The cold air keeps his wits sharp. He's a master of septic tank humor, which is better than it sounds, but it would have to be, wouldn't it? If you have a pulse, you'll find him highly entertaining.
Akaky at the Passing Parade. An amusing, witty, well-read librarian. I strongly suspect Akaky is not his real name, at least I've never met an Irishman with a name like that. Wouldn't you know it, he also hails from the Land of Eliot Spitzer. Must be something in the air in the Empire State.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the country, Neilochka is amusing and flirts shamelessly with the lady bloggers. Neil is a twofer. His penis often shares its wisdom. I wonder if his mother reads his blog.
BibliOdyssey features beautiful illustrations. Enough said. Go there and look.
Last but not least, the Nose on Your Face, inventors of Islamic Rage Boy.
