As you might expect, I search out humor blogs (and there are lots of good ones), but one of the drawbacks I've found with blogs is that, by their very nature, the writing tends to be spontaneous (which is great), but unedited (not so great). I've debated trying to post every day, which would improve my hit rate, but the only way I can do that is to put out stuff that I haven't spent any time reworking and almost certainly posting stuff that I now toss out. So, thanks for noticing the effort I put into writing well.<BR/><BR/>TH --Interestingly, NPR did an interview with The Roches on "Talk of the Nation" yesterday (http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=17100130). I'd never heard of them, so I listened in -- they're great!

You have a good eye. <BR/><BR/>My favorite Christmas CD is by the Roches. Their web site is www.roches.com Their music reminds me of the author. <BR/><BR/>Oh yes, Jeanne, you are most certainly developing fans....or at least addicts! Count me in...Thanks for noting the humor in Christmas lyrics. I'm hoping Christ never tires of Burl Ives and Bing Crosby!<BR/><BR/>THSteven Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09609837368984628002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4496267973912420638.post-82268893009094107922008-12-10T20:53:00.000-05:002008-12-10T20:53:00.000-05:00Hey Jeanne,You know, I've just realized what it is...Hey Jeanne,<BR/><BR/>You know, I've just realized what it is about you blog that particularly caught my eye? You have a really "tidy" way of writing! What I mean is, although your writing is whimsical, on occasion, you always seem come back to the point, and then "complete the loop" of the story.<BR/><BR/>That just occurred to me this minute, so I thought I'd mention it!<BR/><BR/>MattRadagasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14286529284742690239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4496267973912420638.post-70461072206655093852008-12-10T19:41:00.000-05:002008-12-10T19:41:00.000-05:00Winter wonder land used to be one of my favorite c...Winter wonder land used to be one of my favorite carols. Fond memories singing it in 5th grade I guess. But now I will forever have another cross-dressing incident stuck in my head (there is a story of an old friend with an ex-husband who used to "borrow" her unmentionalbles.)HoodChickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08675041170740517867noreply@blogger.com
