Snickerdoodles: 55 saves lives
A massive 55 blogs are now featured on the Lingamish blogroll “Blogs I watch.” I’ve been keeping some of these offstage on my public blogroll at Bloglines. But they are all too good to keep to myself so I just imported the whole gang.
I should state here that I don’t endorse or agree with all of the stuff on these blogs but by and large the content is decent, challenging and God-centered.
I’d like to split them up into different categories, but I’m lazy. You can see the categories at Bloglines.
If I had three wishes…
- Jim West would change the name of his blog from Gesundheit und Favernugen to Parsley Sage Rosemary and Thyme.
- Tim Challies would get rid of that ugly stump in a snowy landscape (A symbol of Calvinism, perhaps?)
- Eclexia: would remove that colon.
I flushed a couple blogs that only saw fit to throw us a pearl every month or so. Come on, folks, once a week, or why bother?!?
And in other news, John Hobbins’ Ancient Hebrew Poetry has just hit the century mark at Technorati. We your hieordules and sycophants salute you.
If you haven’t subscribed to Lingamish, you can help me hit the century mark like my hero John:
Speaking of statistics:
These are the top-visited posts on my blog this month. Notice anything about this list?
- Funny Stuff in the Bible
- Sing The Greek Alphabet Song
- Whoa to you who laugh
- Ancient Hebrew Dancing
- Christian Carnival 193: Lions in Africa
- Greek, Hebrew and the Joy of S-x
- Personal devotions are unbiblical
- Please be so kind as to laugh
- Proof that Jesus is a ghost
- What is a horn of salvation?
- A woman’s place is in the pulpit
- A guide to Biblical kissing
- Why American is called English
That’s right. Nobody reads my blog for global perspectives on Christian thinking. They just like the funny stuff. Sigh. I thought I was a serious linguist and scholar.
1) If Jim West changed his blog’s name to PSR&T, I don’t know that I could endure the awesomeness of it all. Particularly because “Gesundheit und Favernugen” (ha!) is a running philippic (though one neither simple nor desultory), with results comparable to those of your average big, bright pleasure machine. I do hope he continues to continue to pretend that his blog life will never end, and thus keeps slashing his crayon on the blogosphere’s underground wall, to constantly register the equivalent of single-worded poems comprised of Four Letters.
Oh woman and man, now I’m feelin’ groovy!
2) I’d rather think of myself as one of John Hobbin’s hierophants, but I join in your congratulations all the same.
3) Tim Challies has YET to award me his book giveaway. It would be in his best interest to arrange for this, as I do use a cane which may double as an attack weapon.
4) You blog about global perspectives on Christian thinking?!

Oh, I can remove the colon? How did it get there anyway?!? I guess I did that. Thanks for pointing it out! I’ll see if I can figure out where I make those kinds of changes.
At this point, I’m probably on the soon to be flushed list anyway, if posting once a week is the requirement for keepers. Life has thrown me a few curve balls of late, and surviving seems to be taking a higher priority than blogging.
It’s frustrating me, because I have these ideas jotted haphazardly in LiveWriter draft, but have neither the time nor energy to make something more of it.
The colon is removed from my site. I don’t know what has to happen for that change to show up on your blogroll.
The colon is gone…
Who says that blogging has no power to effect real change in the world.
And I downgraded my tree insult. Shame on me.
