CONCEPT
I have several new links to add… and I need to replace a couple old, that disappeared I know not how or why.
Let’s begin with my friend chloegoth at Nifty Catchphrase – http://ubiquitousmoe.blogspot.com/. We have had many entangled connections over the years… we were residents of the same house (though not at the same time), shared the same comrades, the same scavenger hunts, and in some cases the same fascination with circus freaks and the like. In the end, though, it was our one-year stint roleplaying through the Womwawas Drys that cemented our friendship.
chloegoth has married another friend of mine, and currently lives in Atlanta, Georgia. This blog is one of her first forays into web adventures, but with selections such as Baton Bob, the is much to hope for here.
Other web meandering have scared up Arjan El Fassed – E Intifada – http://arjanelfassed.mediamonitors.org/. Arjan is careful in the best sense of the world… not careful in the sense of hesitance or trepidation, but rather his statements are conscious, deliberate and filled with care for his subject. He writes about the situation in the Occupied Territories (and sister sites comment on Iraq and Iran) with an invested perspective that is balanced by a reason and clarity that will make his writing as accessible as they are relevant.
On a somewhat lighter note, Lime – http://anneblime.blogspot.com/ is maintained by Anne, a pastor living in Norway. He writing is as colorful as the blog itself, and when the news and journals of friends and family is filled with stress and struggle, this blog is a welcome stop. Anne writes about nature, religion, and life in Norway with equal vigor.
Finally, a couple of old links disappeared. I’m bummed by this, and don’t know what mistake I made. They are Jen – http://www.livejournal.com/users/jlkennedy/ and Helen – http://www.livejournal.com/users/hvaharu/. The are hereby reinstated with apologies.
