Grapes 2.0
Yay, me! I just caught up on eighty back posts at grapes 2.0, dating back to before we left for Jordan/Egypt in March.
bloglines lets me know just how far behind I get on the umpty ump RSS feeds I’ve stashed away here.
So, I go away for a while or don’t hang out on the computer for a while and before you know it, a blog I track has EIGHTY POSTS I haven’t read yet with more added each day.
Fine. Caught up on grapes2.0.
Next up Sara Zarr’s blog: 116 posts behind on that one. …

Callooh! Callay! Internet Resource for Writers rounds the Big One
Internet Resources – Writers Resources – Writing Links & Writers Links for Writers
And, turns out, the count didn’t zero. Rather, added another digit.
I’m *still* going to swop in another free hit counter. Maybe Site Meter. I’m not too fond of how the current hit counter delivers data.
A MILLION HITS! I can’t believe it.

LawyerWorldLand: WHAT IS RACIST? ABUSING THE TERM
Have I mentioned that Archer is back? Yeah, he was all of six weeks into his “Adios to the Web” retirement when he came back.
Why hadn’t I noticed? Well, to tell the truth, I haven’t been keeping up with my Bloglines gang and he’d only been back for two weeks when we left for most of March. Then March slipped into April and here we are.
If I hadn’t kept Archer on my Bloglines list (even after he said farewell on Jan 2, 2008), I never would’ve known he was back. But I did, and when I checked the Bloglines list an hour or so ago, there he was! New content! Outstanding! Happy day. Archer’s jumble of sense, nonsense, blatant lies, and outrageously gross humor is intact.
For those of youse others on the list, I may need a while to catch up. I mean some folks have a hundred posts I haven’t read yet and even HCC has a backlog.
A belated welcome back, Archer. Good to see you.

"Can Mrs. Clinton Lose?" — Peggy Noonan
If Hillary Clinton loses, does she know how to lose? What will that be, if she loses? Will she just say, “I concede” and go on vacation at a friend’s house on an island, and then go back to the Senate and wait?
Is it possible she could be so normal? Politicians lose battles, it’s part of what they do, win and lose. But she does not know how to lose. Can she lose with grace? But she does grace the way George W. Bush does nuance.

And for those Blog365-ers
In spirit I’m with those Blog365 folks, but I won’t be signing up because (1)I’m not a signer-upper for the most part and (2)I don’t want to be so engaged that I freak when I get hit by a bus and wind up in the hospital and can’t blog for a couple days and spoil my up-til-then-pristene record.
And for those keeping track, I’m still 100% as of Day Six of the year. My “blog” entries between Jan 1 and Jan 6 were in the form of tweets, which get pasted up over there in the righthand sidebar.
Just soze you know.
