I just want to draw everyone's attention to a sequence of blog posts that appeared yesterday, all with the theme "Lying for the Lord". These caught my attention because a
few weeks prior I had just posted my own take on "Lying for the Lord" so when I read these I was curious what direction they would take. Part of me was wondering if they had read my post and were going to talk about what I said. Yeah, I know, a bit narcissistic but it was really more of a worry than a hopeful aggrandizement of my ego. Yeah, ok, that's still narcissistic.
Anyway, sometimes I feel like I should take a more intellectual approach to these subjects but I find reading about them to be much more satisfying. Besides, I think they all do a much better job intellectually addressing the subjects than I would, considering my flair for dramatics. And I would rather use my blog as catharsis anyway.
Here are the posts:
- Craig posted about Robert Millet..
- Molly had more to say about Craig's post.
- Then C.J. followed Molly's with a clarification and more thoughts of her own.
I didn't talk about your post, because I had nothing intelligent to add. On that front, you covered it all. I was actually disappointed that nobody (except Becca, my loyal commenter, who I appreciate beyond measure) really took up the issue.
ReplyDeleteI feel like commenting on some of those blogs out there is way out of my league.
ReplyDeleteWhich ones? And, it's funny, because much as I write about some pretty erudite things (or try to), in real life I'm a hick. I enjoy such uplifting activities as listening to country music, fishing, and attending tractor pulls. I'm just the product of a diverse education.
ReplyDeleteMost of them. And most of the time, before I get there, other commentators have addressed what I would have said and usually do it just as good as or better than me.
ReplyDeleteThat is if I had anything to say about the subject. Most of the time I really don't, I just take it in.
I wish I wrote posts that provoked more of a response. Or, rather, not the response of my ex-friend blog (and RL) stalker, who inspired my URL change. That was/is upsetting.
ReplyDeleteYou know what else is upsetting? I'm looking for a new agent. It's like a breakup.
Well I'm glad you comment on my blog :)
