Oh, people, you've come up trumps yet again! I've checked out some of these - still got some to look at - but no duffers yet. I've come to the conclusion that I'm going to have to give up sleep.

Not sure, but you could always Google it, Libby - there's probably someone out there blogging about how they can't get past two!

I'm a diehard Aussie through and through, and I love reading Treasure's Tales (<a href="http://www.rachaeltreasure.com/">http://www.rachaeltreasure.com/</a>). Rachael is an author but not a mystery author but mostly she is a Tasmanian farmer. She has a great sense of humour and will appeal to most rural Australians.

Gee thanks, guys. Because of your recommendations, I now have a dozen more Blogs with which to hone the art of procrastination... (sigh...) Is there a Bloganonymous 12-step program yet?

I read Male Pattern Fitness (<a href="http://louschuler.com">http://louschuler.com</a>), done by a former editor at Mens Health and Mens Fitness. He's written four books for guys who like to lift heavy things; the blog is largely health related, but he waxes political or entertainment every once in a while. Also, because he's originally from St. Louis, he's a huge baseball nut and silly for his Cardinals.<br />

<br />
It's not a blog, but I'm a daily reader of the forums at Real Rams Fans (<a href="http://realramsfans.com">http://realramsfans.com</a>), a site for St. Louis Rams fans . It's kinda slow this time year heading into the NFL draft, but once training camp begins the place gets a-hoppin.<br />
<br />
I also like Barry Eisler's blog (<a href="http://barryeisler.com/blog">http://barryeisler.com/blog</a>), although he doesn't update it as often as I'd like. It's got nothing to do with his writing or crime (per se). It's purely the intersection of politics and language. Good stuff.<br />
<br />
I also read Galleycat for all the dirt. Hugh McLeod's blog (<a href="http://gapingvoid.com">http://gapingvoid.com</a>) is worth my time. And Kathy Sierra's Creating Passionate Users blog (<a href="http://headrush.typepad.com">http://headrush.typepad.com</a>) is awesome. Even though it's geared toward tech writers and software developers, she's taught me a lot about marketing.

A bunch of the political blogs: ThinkProgress, Daily Kos, and such. One of my favorites is <a href="http://www.balloon-juice.com">Balloon Juice</a> which is by a moderate Republican who's become disgusted with the Bushistas.<br />
Among the (mostly) non-political blogs, <a>Kung Fu Monkey</a> is not to be missed. <a href="http://www.overheardinnewyork.com">Overheard In New York</a> is hilarious, and <a href="http://www.fark.com/">Fark.com</a> gives me my daily dose of the bizarre. I'm grieving that…

You really need to check out the archives...it puts captions on really weird pictures from old-fashioned children's books. <br />

So far, I've had a quick look at the blog of the Manolo - fantastic! I need to spend more time there! I'll check out the others over the weekend, too... I'm assuming I'll have the time, anyway. Cheers, Donna!
