Missy presents The first of earthly blessings, independence. posted at American Flag Waver, saying, “Environmentalists should re-evaluate priorities.”
FitBuff presents Average Men – How Do You Measure Up? posted at FitBuff.com’s Total Mind and Body Fitness Blog, saying, “This fills the “vanity” category nicely on two counts:
1. I think it’s a great post 
2. You can succumb to your own vanity and compare yourself to facts and statistics of “Average Men”...”
Joe Qelqoth presents Virginia Penis Outrage posted at The Cult of Qelqoth, saying, “A new bill has been introduced to the state of Virginia; all motorists are to remove all forms of genitalia from their vehicles or face a legal penalty of $250.00.
We examine emotional damages inflicted upon motor enthusiasts as a result of this proposed leglislation. We also use The Bill of Rights as a platform for exercising YOUR right to practice the art of love with a motor vehicle.
N.B. This article was written and submitted by a person who uses UK English, not US English. That’s because the person who wrote it is English and therefore, not American. Not even one half Yank or one quarter Dixie.
The person who submitted this article is a thoroughbred Brit and bloody well proud of it. This means he enjoys only the finest luxuries that life can offer.
For instance, roast beef, fine ale, pipe tobacco, cricket, cream tea, buttered scones and beating the shit out of unemployed scum. Oh, and The Queen.
In any case, this article may contain traces of sarcasm, satire and stupidity. If in doubt, keep out of reach of conservatives and always read the label prior to use. Discretion advised.”
Steve Faber presents Should the Insurance Industry Use Your Credit Score to Set Rates? posted at DebtBlog.
Alvaro Fernandez presents Brain Plasticity, Health and Fitness Books posted at SharpBrains, saying, “Enjoy this list of 20 great books on the brain, learning and healthy aging.”

Nikita presents Prompting Yourself to Write 10: Just Elected President? Give Your State of the Union posted at Musings of a Mad Macedonian, saying, “It’s Democrat Season! It’s Republican Season! No, it’s the Silly Season!
Imagine, if you will, that you have been elected President, and remember, in a year where 1 party will either have a woman or an African American at the top of its ticket, with a good chance of winning, anything is possible… imagine that you have to write the State of the Union. ;-D”
