Happy Blogroll Amnesty Day!

NOTE: Everything here is stolen!

As my good friend Dr. Zaius would say, "no time for blogging today!" ... so I will share with you what he has written:

Happy Blogroll Amnesty Day! I first learned about this blogosphere holiday through the blog of the fabulous Blue Gal. You can read the frightening details of this event at the fantastic blog of the holiday's creator, Jon Swift, and also at the blog of the other leading event co-conspirator, the equally awesome Skippy the Bush Kangaroo.

Blue Gal suggests that we should post the link to a few of our favorite blogs, and post them so that others can read about them, become aware of them - and finally blogroll these newer and most recently discovered blogs.

Based on Blue Gal's expressed wishes, I have thus gone through a lengthy winnowing process of my own blogroll to find the very best blogs, and I present the following blogs for your consideration as part of the Blogroll Amnesty celebrations.
Because I'm lazy ... that's why.

    Blogroll Amnesty Day

    Photobucket

    Today is blogroll amnesty day -- when we share the luv with other small blogs that we think deserve recognition. Actually, I think we are supposed to highlight blogs smaller than our own, but I'd be hard pressed to find one! So instead, I'm going to share the luv with blogs I enjoy. And I present these to you in no particular order.

    As everyone must know by now I like sassy women, and there is none sassier than Tennessee Guerilla Women. Egalia tells it like it is, sister!

    Another sassy, smart woman is DCup at Politits. Her "adventures in parenting" give us a sneak peek into the lives of two obviously great parents, trying to do the right thing for "the spawn."

    And what's not to love about FranIAm, Jess at I was just wondering, Mary Ellen at The Divine Democrat, and Freida Bee.

    Not to leave the guys out, one of my favorite stops is Zaius Nation. I also like Distributorcap NY and Boxer Rebellion.

    I'm saving my two favorites, however, for last.

    Tengrain at Mock, Paper, Scissors, is truly like a brother to me -- and like all siblings we have our disagreements. So even though he beats the crap out of my gurrl Hill almost daily, I still love him.

    And the blogmother to a lot of the people on my blogroll is our very own Blue Gal. I don't think it can be overstated how much Blue Gal has done to really create a community among small bloggers. And now that she is hanging out uptown as well, she uses her well deserved fame to bring others along. BG is definitely one of the most generous bloggers I have ever met -- and yes, I've had the pleasure of actually meeting her.
