1. I think I'm becoming addicted to blogging.
2. The Van Gogh painting at the top of my blog keeps disappearing and then reappearing. Spooky!

My Left Nutmeg is great. I like the voice: smart but a bit quirky, a little edgy. It's so damn readable. It hums my political tune, so to speak, which makes me wonder: is that why I like it so much? If yes, then there must be some truth to what we discussed in class about
DailyKos (and many political blogs) just preaching to the choir. Maybe that's not so bad, though. Maybe if you preach to the choir, you can get them to do even more than they would ordinarily do. Plus, there's not only strength numbers, but
comfort as well. It's just plain old
nice to communicate with people from different stations in life who share your opinions. Besides, I'm sure some right-winged folks drop in every now and then, just as I watch Fox News every now and then to get pissed off.

This timeline is helpful. I know, I know. I said that blog is kind of dull, which I still believe, but dull can be educational.
5. Lattes rock my socks off.
