Okay, we’ve all had an ample chance to interest Jeff’s audience in our offerings at our own abodes. Now, how about sharing some airtime with someone from your blogroll? Let’s have one or two websites that might be of interest to a significant number of people, that everyone here hasn’t already heard of. It’s always great to learn of a good new site, and maybe one of your old faves could be someone else’s new rave. Here’s mine:
About Last Night. NYC drama critic Terry Teachout fills you in on his Asimov-like volume of scribbling. He’s got the best–and best organized–arts blogroll in the ‘sphere, too. Like Bill Cosby used to say on Fat Albert, if you’re not careful you may learn something.
Samizdata. Perry de Haviland, Johnathan Pearce, & their libertarian colleagues grip the stopwatch, clocking the race between the Islamic Jihad and the Welfare Nanny State, to see which will destroy Britain first. Includes many incisive asides about American affairs, too. (Stay on topic if you comment–I got backhanded and deleted one time, for acting like I was at LGF.)
I always enjoy Brad Miner’s blog, CompassPoints. He’s a conservative for sure, but the blog isn’t always political. He’s a gentleman and a scholar, and he combined these two traits to write The Compleat Gentleman: The Modern Man’s Guide to Chivalry.
I enjoy Brad’s blog like I do a good steak, and I enjoy Queer Conservative like I do candy. He dishes out tasty morsels of sarcasm, and…he’s a gay conservative. I like to refer to him as the self-hating token queer that is blinded by the lies of Chimpy McLieSuit and his Liedministration. No wait, that’s what his detractors call him. I call him “that saucy guy who uses sarcasm like it’s going out of style”.
And finally, something not political: Interesting Finding Over Internet. It’s written in terrible broken English, but the title of the blog is exactly what he delivers: interesting stuff he found on the internet.
Oh brother. I may never leave my computer. I love that stuff.
This is a dangerous thread for me!
Subhead for this thread: places people can go instead of coming here.
No worries, Jeff. I couln’t not come here.
Nobody else has interesting folks still posting at this hour!
I don’t really go anywhere anymore, I only do what my RSS reader tells me.
And I have a blog but no blogroll for two reasons. One, the week I started blogging there was some kind of pissing match going on about de-linking and the guy who convinced me to blog also convinced me that a blogroll is more trouble than it’s worth. And two, my mother hasn’t figured out hyperlinks yet, so why put any more stress on our relationship?

If it’s on teh interweb it must be true A Hong Kong blog
Topic Drift. An occasional blog by Esther Wilberforce-Packard.
Cute Overload, where “We offer an overwhelming amount of cuteness to fill your daily visual allowance. Drink it in!”
And we can’t forget the Gallery of Regettable Food over at Lileks. That’s one of the most gut-busting things I’ve ever read. Oh, and The Gobbler Hotel, a place that, though now torn down, will always live in our hearts.
I’d pimp myself, but I’ve been doing much more reading than writing lately. Meh.
Protein Wisdom: The Taco Bell of the Internet.
Not so much Taco Bell.
Unfortunately, I’m stone cold sober.
