A few blogs to try


It's no secret how much I hate this war and "W" for getting us into it. But the other side of that is how much I honor, respect, cherish, and am grateful for the men and women who are doing this dirty work. "The Sandbox" is a blog by members of the military and their families. It's worth your time to read these entries, and listen to our troops. They volunteer to give their lives to support our country and us.

And now the girls are sending me blog recommendations...

Not a blog, but something I wish all writers would read, and learn.

Jean, you have WAY too much free time to be looking for these things - but thanks!

You'll notice that many of these are about words. Our whole family is enamored of words. I know that most of this comes from my mother, and I assume she influenced all of us - for which we are all eternally grateful.

I with on both accounts, the war and W. I'm also with you in support of the troops. They are true heros.

The milblog is very touching. I wrote this before we found out about Jesse. And, of course, it's even more true, now - at least for us.
