This will be a temporary measure, as I hope to put something more customized together that can be collectively managed. But for now, I have used Google Reader to collect all the Oklahoma Netroots blogs I have found, and, made the list public, so anyone who wants to can enjoy.
If you’re just a reader or don’t want to… Read the rest
I’ve decided to bestow some blog awards to celebrate my upcoming 5-year blogging anniversary, which corresponds with Thanksgiving weekend. Since there isn’t a lot of time to prepare for this year’s awards, it will be a simple, rushed affair. So fitting!
But I’m serious about honoring the recipients, who toil in near obscurity day after day in a non-progressive state… Read the rest
I don’t know if this blog is really written by an 82 year old woman living in Texas writing to her friend in Maine, who had to have her blog thingy set up by her grandson so they could talk to each other about politics and life in America, but DAMN, it’s funny and brilliant.

And the winners are …
Congratulations to all, and a big collegial hug to Mike at Okiedoke who does such a great job with the awards each year, in addition to his own great blog.

I don’t do nearly enough browsing of the blogs… Read the rest
