What will change, for you, for the U.S., for the world, now that Osama is gone?
I think today there is a little less evil in the world; but evil will be done in his name.
People have a right to rejoice; but the world, if it’s possible, is now an even scarier place.

What do you want to accomplish with your blog? What is it for?
To make you laugh. S/he who laughs last, lasts. People who laugh live longer. Unless they get hit by buses while doing it.
Laughter isn’t the best medicine (if it was, I could stop donating to Cancer Research), but it’s the best coping mechanism.
When I started my blog – to stop Tory Boy’s nagging – I was simply looking for an outlet for my writing. I had no focus. I wrote about my life and tried to make it funny, bunging in the occasional poem or cartoon. Then I discovered that the funnier I was, the more comments – and visitors – I received. Because people like to laugh. I elbowed the poems, changed my tag line, and learned to do with less sleep as I sweated over finding the funny in everything.
To celebrate being thirty three percent done with Post a Day/Post a Week, share your top three favorite posts that you’ve published since starting the challenge.
I posted 78 times in April alone; I have no chance of recalling a favourite.
Instead, I’ll tell you my favourite things about blogging:
Looks like Orson Scott Card had it wrong, by the way: the dirtiest word isn’t Third.*

And one final thing I love about blogging:
I am a little fat. I like food; what can I say? I have dull hair: mousey. I don’t wear much make-up and have no need of a dressing table. If I look like a bag lady, I chose my own clothes. If I look nice, the Hub picked them for me. Despite all this, I am a little vain. This photograph is from 2003. I had to go back that far to find one of me that I liked. But I don’t really care: my husband still thinks I’m beautiful and if he doesn’t, he loves me enough to lie about it. I’m lucky. I have two boys. They never lie to me. Still, you can't have everything.

I have the funniest readers in the blogosphere (not necessarily ha ha…)
