I’d planned to do an announcement post at least twice a month, but I kept forgetting. Here a few happenings and interesting posts around the blogosphere. Leave a comment or e-mail me if you have an announcement or link you’d like to share. This post will be updated throughout the day.
- Jeff Harrell of Shape of Days interviews author Steven Vincent, who’s written about his trips to Iraq. Also see Chrenkoff’s interview.
- Buck comes up with a creative way to confront the war on Christmas.
- I never got to know Steven Den Beste of USS Clueless fame, but I can relate to his reaction to not-so-nice e-mails and other pitfalls of being a blogger.
- BLOGGERS WANTED!
- Are you HaloScan users having trouble trackbacking to my posts? Word Press and HaloScan seem to be incompatible. Try Simpletracks instead.
- The Watcher’s Council is looking for a watcher.
- Michelle Malkin on Christians in the crossfire.
- Every time I visit fellow Conservative Brotherhood pal Avery Tooley’s blog, it’s looks different. I wish I had those skills. I actually have to pay someone to design my site.
- Blogsister Ambra Nykol is amassing a fine body of work with her column in Seaspot magazine.
- Carnival of the Vanities is up at Ravenwood’s Universe.
- Daddypundit on the true meaning of Christmas.
- Interesting article about bloggers. Not bad.
- Stacy Harp has left Blog*Spot. Check out her new place, MediaSoul
Update: Two readers trying to comment have been redirected to the FBI’s web site. Has this happened to others? I don’t know what’s going on!
The lastest announcement:
From Rick: “Some might call this announcement a tad trite in the grand scheme of things but I’d like to honor my little brother by announcing how proud we are that he was promoted to E5 in the Coast Guard Reserve and by having some fun at his expense in this post on my own blog.”

I don’t have anything to add, other than a THANK YOU to you for doing what you do. : ) Merry Christmas. God has blessed me through your work.
What version of Wordpress are you using? I have never had that problem with other wordpress blogs, but the only one I have tried recently is using the 1.2.1 version.
Is Ambra’s site up? I keep getting 404s when I try to go there. Going to nykola.com gets me something that leads me to believe she forgot to renew her domain name. I don’t have her email unfortunately.
Merry Christmas La.
La Shawn,
I just set up a new blog account. Can you please check it out and let others know about it?
Thanks.
La Shawn,
Regarding your question about the redirect to the FBI site when attempting to post a comment on your blog, that happened to me too the other day. It was really very odd. I thought you had done it on purpose, so I didn’t contact you about it. Now that you’ve asked about it, I’m letting you know.
Merry Christmas and God bless you
Hi Lashawn..Merry Christmas from Cincinnati..the land of the white death..My wife is in an absolute 24/7 weather watching frensy. This is probably chauvanistic but what is it about woman who obsess over watching low person on the totem pole stick rulers in the ground..or do interviews standing by dwindling piles of rock salt?? hee hee.
I wanted to thank you for opening up a new world to me. Despite some of the seriousness of your essays your words give me hope. Your blog attracts some of the most intelligent and interesting people. God bless you.
As far as the fbi.org link I’ve been directed to on several occassions..I did a scan disk..deleted all temp files and was finally able to post the other night. Truthfully..it’s comforting to know that Frank and others had the same thing happen. Isn’t that weird? Like Frank I thought you might have done something..that perhaps I posted something inappropiate and you decided to use some devious computer skill as punishment. Thanks for taking the time to send me the reassuring email. Please take care and may God continue to use you and guide you. Love Ray..
Are you going to apply as a blogger at CPAC? It sounds interesting.
Already applied!
La Shawn – In regard to having to PAY someone to design your site, have you ever heard of Homestead.com? I’m a homeschooling mother of five and use it to design/maintain the kids’ swimteam website. No coding necessary, it’s all drop and drag. VERY easy to use – you could modify your color scheme or any other aspect of your site daily with very little effort. Just thought I’d mention it although I like your site just the way it is!
