Weekend Edition - Addition. 2006-10-22 05:51:18 Saturday nights, oh how I love them.
Went to two movies this weekend, The Prestige and The Departed.
We aren't a movie review site, but let me tell you both are worth the money, neither disappointed; if I had to see only one I would take the Prestige.
The chairman has been voraciously reading some of the blogs [...] Read more:Weekend

Wednesday Wonders 2006-10-18 23:38:31 It was supposed to be Two on Tuesday, but work got in the way.
We are working on some of the requests, so be patient.
This entry, now titled WednesdayWonders
, welcomes another pair of blogs to our EXCLUSIVE fold.
The chairman gives heads up to a blog on wordpress which does the same thing we do, [...]
We interrupt this program 2006-10-14 18:12:16 We interrupt
this program.
I mean, I interrupt this program to make a statement.
Malawi groups to ask court to halt Madonna adoption.
I do think US stars are beginning to use children from foreign countries as publicity. If these people were truly humanitarian they would simple use there money to help these African people find [...]
Having my Breakfast 2006-10-12 21:48:53 We like blogs which have no great affinity for any specific group of bloggers.
Although on the surface our next selection may seem to be a "mommy blog" it is no such thing.
That is to say, we like bloggers who do their own thing despite it all, and both myself and the chairman have enjoyed [...] Read more:Having

Making the World a better or at least more informed place. 2006-10-12 02:17:19 Some tips I have found that are helpful if you want a global audience. This is taken from Googleblogoscoped.
With a global audience it's never a good idea to only use sophisticated words not everyone may know. Some of your readers may speak English only as second language. They may want to learn new words, but [...] Read more:World

Ideas 2006-10-08 21:14:53 Trying to think of some fun things to do and came across bloggasm blog; it gave us an idea, we’ll see how it pans out.
We’d like to interview all the people we have listed as great blogs - at some time in the future. We realize that not all of them will have [...]
We add " The Last Girl on Earth " 2006-10-07 00:38:06 Adding another great blog to the list this weekend:
The Last Girl on Earth
.
I've read her for quite some time, although she disappeared for awhile, or so it seemed, I have started reading her again and I'm glad I did.
This is a blog you can relax to.
I am a singer/songwriter and classically-trained violinist who quit the [...]
The Luke Johnson Phone Experiment. 2006-10-06 21:20:57 A couple of posts disappeared for no apparant reason.
Humm
Back to a Great Blog soon.
Found this on a BE blog.
Interesting idea, this guy is taking calls to see how many strangers will call him, I’m tempted.
The Luke Johnson

Don’t worry he doesnt care when you call or what you say.
If you can’t see You Tube [...] Read more:Experiment
Updates and Cherries. 2006-10-01 23:21:12 I’ve found a lot of review sites disappear in a very short time. This one for instance.
Most of the blogs they reviewed are gone too; this is why we wanted to limit our Great Blogs to those that have been around awhile, but have not gotten the recognition they deserve. The problem here is the [...] Read more:Cherries
Happy October 1 2006-10-01 18:02:48 Happy October

The chairman has been out of town on a mission of geological significance, so this whole blog has been left in my hands.

specific blogs.
Send them our way if you have anything in that category.
We are nothing 2006-10-29 20:05:17 We are a nothing, created out of nothing, and we aren't a political blog nor do we devise our great blog list based on our politics.
We want you all to pay attention to the Wampum blog and their quiet cry for donations anyway.
It's that time of year again and these guys started it all. [...]
Is it Wonderland, or Not 2006-10-26 18:28:06 We've read "Alice" at Wonderland
or Not for some time; she was at blogspot and when she first began and proclaimed she started a blog so she could write things she didn't want anyone to read.We doubt that is the case anymore.
Alice's about states "Alice doesn't care what you think" and from what we can [...]
Wednesday already? 2006-11-01 20:04:16 Halloween took it’s toll on me because the coffee shop stayed open to give candy out to kids from the city. I usually close it at 5PM. I swear we had over six hundred kiddies.
Fun Night.
If we are renting from you, thank you. I can’t seem to get into section of blog explosion which tells me who [...] Read more:Wednesday

 "Sid is the main character in a single panel comic, who happens to be a very opinionated guy, and tends to make his point straight up. If you follow the headlines on the evening news or in your paper, rest assured Sid will have something to [...]
The Blog for the weekend Boldy Contemplates 2006-11-10 18:55:34 Weekend again, so fast.
This week has flown by, with the election and all. We aren’t political, but that doesn’t mean we can’t admit to smiling a little and keeping our fingers crossed.
The blog of the weekend is………… Bold Contemplations
We have so many built up emails, have looked at so many blogs, I forget [...]
Weblog awards. 2006-11-15 19:43:35 We interrupt this program, one more time.
I know we said we don’t pay attention to rankings or awards, except the ones we give here just by putting people on our sidebar, but we came across the WebLog Awards and have made a couple of our own nominations.
This is the first time we have ever [...]
Our renter for the week. 2006-11-16 19:27:44 All of a sudden I have to sign in twice in order to make a post; it must be something The Chairman did.
Welcome our renter
over there on the sidebar, "Advertising for Success". A blog full of helpful information and good ideas for all in blogging.
Go visit and tell then we sent you.
If you could only read one blog a day???? 2006-11-17 18:31:02 With the holiday coming we have decided to take a week off and ask you what your one favorite “can’t do without” blog is.
So what is it?
If you could only read one blog a day which blog would it be?
We wish you all 2006-11-23 07:53:57 We wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving, we return directly after the holiday.
Rapping things up. 2006-11-25 02:57:12 This weekend we hit the music blogs.
To our list, this weekend, we add - The Rap - Up.
The chairman likes his rap, and this blog makes it easy. Not a lot of chit chat, just the music. Sure, there's a little talk here and there, but not enough to bother us.
If you’re going [...] Read more:things

Homo Escapeons ? 2006-11-30 18:16:16 This week we were looking at a few blogs sent to us by others. This week we are choosing to extol the virtue, or is it internet virtuoso, of a blog titled Homo Escapeons.
We’ve said it before. The key is the “about” section; if there is no “about” section we usually don’t even read [...]
Lost 2006-12-05 18:17:00 I happened upon a nifty little knitting blog the other day. This blog was not just a knitting blog, more of a knitting and life blog and it was good.
I lost it, can’t even remember the title.
So frustrating.
Knit-time. 2006-12-06 18:33:44 I'm veddy, veddy busy this time of year, so I thought today I would just list a couple of knitting blogs.
I am just starting to get into knitting, I hope someday to be able to make something good enough to give as a gift. Maybe next year.
I want to be able to make the sweater [...]

Weekend Choices, painting and pudding. 2006-12-10 18:27:11 Two links for the weekend, not exactly blogs, but the holiday is here and we all need gifts and food so we're suggesting a couple of sites for you.
The first site has been around some time. I first read about it last year on Boing Boing, and recently read about it again on Wired.
"This year, [...] Read more:Weekend
Books 2006-12-12 03:17:36 We're starting a mini roll, for good book sites.
Like most we probably read the same old books sites most of you read.
If you have any smaller "book-ish blogs" on your link list, blogs dealing with not only book reviews, but anything about books including the art work and collecting, send us a link.
We add [...] Read more:Books
More than business as usual. 2006-12-16 21:20:57 This has been hell week for the coffee lady and the chairman.
The chairman got stuck in Tai Pai, and it’s retail season and the coffee shop is full of people, five times as many people as usual, taking a break from their shopping expeditions. I don’t want to seem ungrateful, we have sold a lot [...]
Merry Holidays 2006-12-22 17:51:55 We wish everyone a Merry
, Merry Holiday.
I’m adding this blog because I just found it the other day and and to put is mildly it rocks some coffee.
Owning a coffee shop I look for coffee blogs all the time; this is one of the best one’s I have come across.
Coffee and Conservation
I don’t think [...] Read more:Holidays
A weight lifted in time for the new year. 2006-12-28 03:40:32 A quick addition to our great blog-list. Thought I’d add it before the new year.
Of all the health and weight-loss blogs I have previewed this one was a good balance.
A Weight Lifted.
This is a blog written by women who have in some way contributed to or participated in success of the Green Mountain [...] Read more:lifted
