I guess I’m just not in the mood tonight for digging through the news. I try to keep in mind that this blog is a hobby — I don’t want it to ever feel like it has become a job that needs to be done, especially since I’m paying to do this. If I ever went the route of adding advertisements, that may be a different matter. Before I say good night, I wanted to call your attention to a couple of links.<\/p>\n
First, the big story of the day, the kidnapping of a Catholic archbishop is covered well and updated<\/a> by Dr. Rusty Shackleford at The Jawa Report<\/a> (listed as My Pet Jawa in my blogroll).<\/p>\n Second, Eric Cowperthwaite at Eric’s Random Musings<\/a> contemplates whether he is a milblogger<\/a> and examines the impact of his military experience on his current life.<\/p>\n Third, you may notice a new button on this site representing C.U.B.<\/a>, the Coalition of Unpaid Bloggers. This idea is courtesy of The Fire Ant Gazette<\/a>, a new addition to my blogroll, and ties in well with my earlier statement that this blog is a hobby that I enjoy and want to keep enjoying. That said, good night, y’all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I guess I’m just not in the mood tonight for digging through the news.
