Sunday in Outer Blogness: Parade of Patriotism Edition!

chanson, April 26, 2009November 9, 2011

Now, let’s just dispense with the esoteric discussions on the true dirty definition of “tea-bagging” since the tea-baggers are just patriotic Americans who don’t like taxation without representation, and if your favorite candidate fails to get elected one time, then the patriotic thing to do is, well, secede from the…

Sunday in Outer Blogness: Easter Edition!

chanson, April 12, 2009September 3, 2011

Happy Easter everyone! I would do an Easter-themed roundup, but it seems not too many in Outer Blogness have blogged about it. I figure that either (like me!) they don’t have that much to say about Easter, or they’re so busy painting eggs that they don’t have time to blog….

Sunday in Outer Blogness: Conference Edition!

chanson, April 5, 2009October 20, 2010

You can learn a lot of interesting things from reading the Bloggernacle. For example, I learned that this very weekend is the weekend of the LDS semi-annual “General Conference”. So far the Bloggernacle’s coverage of this event has been pretty positive, which can mean one of three things: (1) the…

Sunday in Outer Blogness: Appreciation Edition!

chanson, March 29, 2009November 9, 2011

Outer Blogness is popping up all over!! By that I mean that people are actually starting to put the lovely list script in their sidebars! The first one (from way back) was the popular atheist group blog Unscrewing the Incrutable, but more recently others have done the same: Jesus’ General,…

Sunday in Outer Blogness: Monday edition!

chanson, March 23, 2009November 9, 2011

Folks, sorry to be a day late on this! I have had an insanely stressful week which kind of bled over into the weekend, and I was barely able to get the Skeptical Parent Crossing carnival done on time. But there have been some interesting items in Outer Blogness this…

Sunday in Outer Blogness: Back in Business Edition!

chanson, March 8, 2009November 7, 2024

So, instead of cleaning my apartment yesterday as planned, I spent the morning going through the Outer Blogness list, updating and correcting it. There are still a few bugs to work out (explained here), but now the blogroll here and the Outer Blogness list have been synchronized, and they contain…

Sunday in Outer Blogness: Miracles and Tragicles Edition!

chanson, March 1, 2009October 1, 2011

Pixelfish reports a tragicle: the death of Paul Harvey. She and her readers reminisce about listening to “The Rest of the Story” — I know that for me it brings back plenty of memories of the long drive to seminary, at 5 a.m., in the still-freezing car when the weather…

Sunday in Outer Blogness: Lifestyles Edition!

chanson, February 15, 2009November 9, 2011

The good folks of Outer Blogness seem to be having some mixed feelings about facebook lately. But nobody seems to be opting out completely. Like cell-phones, facebook eventually gets adopted by everybody… In the interfaith relations department, Runtu has resolved to play nice with the faithful, and not paint them…
