Witty repartee, mere feedback, Irwin, etc.
A few blog observations, because I have so little of my own creativity to share right now, from three fellow Philly bloggers and one closer relation:
First a post-specific kudo for a blogger who deserves many of them: to Mark, who’s got a post about a la carte cable offerings. Like most cultural commentary at The Long Cut, this analysis is dead on, starting with the title.
Then there’s one of the more recent blogroll additions on my sidebar, Phreaking Philly. From streetside restaurant reviews to listing stuff that annoys him, Wade Bloggs not only has great musical taste; he also offers more of the snappy brand of blogging I’d expect from someone introduced by Becky.
And in the most daring item of the day, mere cat gets comments—finally. I’ve long lamented the absence of comments on Tony’s site (pretty much on a monthly basis at the Philly blog meetups). Now I guess I have to shut up about that.
Then my brother-in-law, who guests over at Ales Rarus from time to time, saw fit to share the story of a Valentine’s Day first date. It involves my sister, but more importantly, an uncredited automotive cameo by Irwin.
