Blog updates

While I was in Ireland I was only able to get online for a few minutes at a time, and was only able to do this four or five times. So I wasn't able to keep up with everybody's blogs and I've been trying to play catch-up since I came back.

Camilla has a sexy new design and a new webcam server that isn't updating any of the cam image sites that she's listed under. So now I can only see one image of Camilla at a time, and if I miss one, it's gone forever. Which I suppose is a good incentive to visit regularly.

Sammie's sdfsdf.wox.org is offline and has been since at least the 15th, which was the last time I got to check while I was in Ireland. I actually had someone come to my site yesterday using the search phrase "what happened to sammie's site from australia?" I was able to get in touch with her yesterday by e-mail and she's still around, but her site is experiencing a technical glitch which is keeping it from appearing online. She's working with several parties to get this resolved, but it sounds like they're all pointing their fingers at each other. I hope this gets resolved soon - I'm having Sammie withdrawal!

I've tried to catch up with Adam Felber's Fanatical Apathy, but as always there are about a gazillion comments that I need to read, too. I have said in the past that Adam's site can be looked at as a sort of "group blog", where he seeds the discussions and his readers take the ball and run with it.

SuperG's My Distractions In This Modern Age has been most helpful in keeping me updated on political developments while I was away. In Ireland the RTE news was primarily about local and national Irish events with a little international stuff thrown in, mostly about Iran. Almost nothing on Iraq, very little about the U.S. It's good to be able to catch up. SuperG has shut down The Hurricane's Eye, his non-political non-controversial blog.

Chloe's Watermelon Punch hasn't been updated in months, and she still gets two to three times as many visitors as I do each day. There ain't no justice.

Lauren over at Please Make Rice, I Love You has gone through some changes in the last few weeks. She is still having the problem with the hives, but it sounds like she's finally seeing some doctors who are trying to treat her.

Gort's Gort42 has been very helpful in keeping me up with local political developments. This was one of the few sites I was able to check regularly while I was in Ireland.

And if it weren't for Mr. H.K.'s "and I quote blog", I wouldn't have known that Jack Wild (Jimmy from H.R. Pufnstuff) died.
