Alarming News: I like Morgan Freeberg. A lot.
American Digest: And I like this from "The Blog That Nobody Reads", because it is -- mostly -- about me. What can I say? I'm on an ego trip today. It won't last.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: We were following a trackback and thinking "hmmm... this is a bloody excellent post!", and then we realized that it was just part III of, well, three...Damn. I wish I'd written those.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: ...I just remembered that I found a new blog a short while ago, House of Eratosthenes, that I really like. I like his common sense approach and his curiosity when it comes to why people believe what they believe rather than just what they believe.
Brutally Honest: Morgan Freeberg is brilliant.
Dr. Melissa Clouthier: Morgan Freeberg at House of Eratosthenes (pftthats a mouthful) honors big boned women in skimpy clothing. The picture there is priceless--keep scrolling down.
Exile in Portales: Via Gerard: Morgan Freeberg, a guy with a lot to say. And he speaks The Truth...and it's fascinating stuff. Worth a read, or three. Or six.
Just Muttering: Two nice pieces at House of Eratosthenes, one about a perhaps unintended effect of the Enron mess, and one on the Gore-y environ-movie.
Mein Blogovault: Make "the Blog that No One Reads" one of your daily reads.
The Virginian: I know this post will offend some people, but the author makes some good points.
Poetic Justice: Cletus! Ah gots a laiv one fer yew...
His weekly column is here.
He is even enviable in the way he chooses to word things. During the audio book on the way back from Nevada, I was particularly impressed with the phrase, “I acknowledge the multitude of exceptions to my observation.” The occasion was a comment made about the difference between girls and boys as they interact with horses. Gender differences, in other words. We sometimes talk about gender differences here; it sort of teeters on the brink of the precipice of “Three Things Morgan Doesn’t Have the Balls to Blog.”
So I think I’ll borrow the phrase, when it is needed, going forward. “I acknowledge the multitude of exceptions to my observation.”

Never heard of him, but I’ll check out the link.
What are the other two things? Do I see an additional sidebar entry on the horizon?
Course, then the purpose would be self-defeating: you claim you haven’t got the balls to blog about something, then we’d want to know why, then your explanation would be as good as actually blogging about it.

NPR.
I liked the majority of his stuff.
I think he’s one of those “Cowboy Poets” that Harry Reid said wouldn’t exist without government funding. At last check, the Cowboy Poets said it’d go on with or without Federal Funding.
I have a book by him somewhere I haven’t read yet.
Think it may be this one.
