Go Read It Today, Tuesday, August 26, 2008

Jay is back. It’s about fucking time.

Here’s the most depressing article on a “good marriage” that I have ever read. Holy crap, can’t we aim a little higher?

Who knew the USPS had this kind of power?

I’m still laughing. Just read it — especially if you’ve been ‘doubly blessed.’ Too goddamned funny.

Kathryn has great friends.

Beer bottle and panties. Now that’s a still life.

(UPDATE: I’m not pregnant, Wired for Noise is. Sheesh, people, thanks for the emails, but really 3 crazies is enough for me!)

One of our own has made it to the big time. Congratulations!

Hey Paul, don’t burn out Please. It seems like you have a really good heart.

Measles is coming back. I’ll just keep my thoughts about those who don’t vaccinate to myself.

I wish I knew the backstory on the ending of this great post.

She’s out!

Fingers crossed.

Karrie asks a great question.

Call me a product-shilling whore, but this is really funny.

And yes, I’ve been fussing around with ‘Go Read It Today’ for about a year. I still can’t quite figure out how to integrate it properly into this blog, but for now at least, here’s another post. If you haven’t noticed, I’ve been doing it in my sidebar for a while now, but it doesn’t go out in my feed. I’m still working out the right balance for it all… Let me know if you have any suggestions :)

UPDATE: OK, now I’ve taken the ‘Go Read It Today’ links out of the sidebar. I’ll go back to posting them periodically. Let’s see how that works.

    I had wondered where Jay got to so it’s good he’s back. I saw your Tweet yesterday about it too.

    I think GRIT works best when it features me. I’m just teasing of course! Or am? Yes, I am.

    Okay – who is pregnant? Am I too sleep deprived to figure it out?

    I never found a great way to highlight good reads, either. I think a link round-up is the best way. It lets you ramble a bit about what the other person wrote. Plus, it’s a higher-impact help to that blogger as far as search engine rankings go. (Pages with less text are given less weight during indexing.)
