The Way I Roll

From my sidebar Blog Breaks, one sentence from a recent post per each, why I read. So without any further ado ... blog roll please!

365 Ways to Go Green
"Much like the Peanut Butter Plan, I’m not sure how this is a “green” act, but I’m hoping that it brought some joy to someone’s day and that makes our environment a better place."

A Stellar Life
"REPORT FACTS and if you don't have any---SHUT UP."

Army of Dude
"Any junior enlisted soldier knows the issued equipment is inferior to anything you can go out and buy for yourself."

Ecovillage Musings
"I sit here at my desk, in my home built of reclaimed lumber and strawbales, at my computer powered by solar panels and a wind turbine and wonder if I am really making a difference."

Great Minds Think Like Me
"These folks are faux Christians, real Christians pray for good things not the demise of their fellow human beings."

Groping the Elephant
"If you don't have the intestinal fortitude, the matureness of character to admit that even your most cherished belief might be in error, you probably won't like most of my posts."

The House That Millett Built
"It will be made on the cheap, and as you can probably guess, out of mostly natural and reclaimed materials: an urbanite foundation, roundwood post and beams, and cob walls."

Islam Versus Muslims
"People having a common agenda form a group and people of different agenda form different groups and every group is firm on their agenda resulting in enmity."

LoveSpeakes
"It’s kind of like you don’t even exist, and that I should just go stand in front of a mirror and pray to myself."

I Think

I think I'm bored blogging. I think I'm done with it. I think what's the point? I think you should check out my blogroll instead. I think they say stuff better anyway.

Like Jose, who while conceding that Betty White is legend "in this day and age of rebels and rockers" (I really don't know what that means, but it seems to be a good thing), is more concerned about her afterlife appearance instead, presumably being so old as she is.

Her relationship with the Lord is what she needs to take serious." Well, all...

It Could Happen

I was digging deep again, as I do every year or so, into my box of keepsakes and relics that I really don't know why I kept them but did. Stuff I wrote as a kid (some of that, I must say, rather disturbing), old letters of the real life mailed sort, newspaper clippings of miscellany, that have strangely yellowed and gotten brittle already and that shit just ain't right since it seems not so long ago ... whatever, I'm getting old. From the Kansas City Kansan , newspaper that we got delivered daily, Friday, July 25, 1975, I had cut out and kept this one particular article headlined "Youngster completes first novel." I was always writing as a kid, so I remember very well snipping this one item, on account of the twelve-years-old youngster was my same age, and I very much wanted my own novel published. Of course I hadn't written it yet, but I figured this proved I could do it, too, kept it for an affirmation thingy. Over the years I've remembered saving that s...
