Linking.

Confession: I've recently been blogging elsewhere. I thought, in the interest of consolidation (sort of), I should link here to that blog. It's the Chicago Tribune "Voice of the People" blog that exists, as far as I can tell, for the purpose of responding to letters to the editor. Which is what my posts were. Responses. Essays, you might say. So do not expect poetry (though I like to think they have a certain flare).

About two weeks ago, a woman from my hometown wrote a letter to the editor in response to an op-ed piece that denounced our military's "Don't ask, Don't tell" policy regarding gay soldiers. You'll find her letter if you scroll to the top of the page. Then, to read the responses in order, scroll all the way to the bottom and read upward. Scattered throughout, you'll find three back-and-forth response rounds between me and her (if you care to look, that is).

A change of pace from what I generally offer here, but I thought it might be of interest. It is to me, anyway.

Here's the link.

Enjoy. (Or not.) And feel free to comment -- there or here.

UPDATE: My blogalogue adversary fired another volley (though the ammunition seemed to be blanks). I've sent in my response, but judging from past experience I don't think it will be posted until sometime Monday. Keep checking there or here for updates (if you care) (if you really care, I'll email you my response) (if I know you) (or if I don't, actually).

Short, but sweet.

Finally.

The deodorant thing isn't working. Something's not right. It keeps getting detoured and sidetracked and broken down and then chased around by maniacal cannibals in the woods (anyone see Wrong Turn? Eliza Dushku? Anyone? Anyone? Buehler?). But I'll keep at it.

To tide you over. Since I know I've had oh so many of you at the edges of your seats for so long. Something old. From sophomore spring. But with a new title.

Enjoy. (Or not. Up to you.)
