Moody Blue

by Bud Weiser

We have a com­plete change of pace today.
Since Bar­bara wrote a review of a post address­ing a rather seri­ous sub­ject yes­ter­day (and well done, I might add), we thought we’d go for some­thing lighter today.
Jodi authors Moody Blue. It is a light and breezy glimpse into her life. For instance, she says, “I am a 36-year-old, […]

Paula’s Playground

by Bud Weiser

How we deal with death tells as much about us as how we deal with life. We were very moved by Giv­ing Sor­row Words pub­lished June 10, 2007, by the author of a blog that is bet­ter known for humor and wit than seri­ous writ­ing.
Paula of Paula’s Play­ground is a ter­rific writer who seems to […]

Recently, we received a nom­i­na­tion for a blog, but not a par­tic­u­lar post. It’s fun to dig into a blog, get to know the author a bit, and then select a post wor­thy of the Post of the Day Award.
RJ Light wrote on April 24, 2007, of a sim­ple mis­com­mu­ni­ca­tion between a hus­band and a wife. […]

Tricia’s Musings

by Bud Weiser

To those of us who live in the United States, our view of Canada is lim­ited. We were not required to learn its his­tory, for instance.
Tricia’s Mus­ings is an infor­ma­tive, inter­est­ing and well-written blog. Tri­cia is Cana­dian, and she main­tains a blogroll com­prised strictly of fel­low Cana­dian blog­gers.
Tri­cia is the recip­i­ent of the May […]

A lot of folks have writ­ten trib­utes and remem­brances about the tragedy at Vir­ginia Tech. As a mother of young chil­dren, Kick­ing N. Scream­ing writes both in that capac­ity and from the per­spec­tive of a native of Vir­ginia.

Some­times another person’s opin­ions and con­clu­sions are dif­fer­ent from your own, yet you still find those com­ments both thought-provoking and inter­est­ing. So it is today with me.

by Bud Weiser

Peo­ple email to ask how we select our win­ning posts. Some are sug­gested to us, some our team finds. We grav­i­tate toward humor blogs, but we’ve bestowed the Post of the Day Award upon some very seri­ous posts, as well.
Today we took a ran­dom stroll into the blo­gos­phere found today’s win­ning post. A nurse named Todd […]
