Arrrgh!!!

Dawn, over at Altered Perception was stuck in traffic this week. She asked her readers for suggestions on what to do while you spend several hours stopped on the expressway. Go read "Traffic Report" Sept 15, and "Traffic Ideas," Sept. 16.

Dawn, I've seen women putting on makeup and doing manicures, guys reading magazines, books and newspapers,and watching TV. I'd do crossword puzzles or plan my menus for the week. Or, you could plan your next trip.

I know there are isometrics you could do, in addition to the Kegel exercises. I suspect that bicep curls could get you into trouble, expecially if the guy next to you takes it wrong. I hope it will be a long time before the next gridlock, hon.

Your rant on "Budgets," Sept. 17 was VERY enlightening!

Allison, at Ain't That a Kick in the Head, has been reminiscing about school days, and writing about a trip through Oklahoma. Go visit for a nostalgic view of a time most of us remember with great pleasure.

PJ over at BrambleRambles hasn't posted this week, but if you haven't been to his blog, do go. He has absolutely WONDERFUL pictures in several photo journals at the bottom right of his blog. I think most, if not all, of the pictures have been taken while he's rambled with his boys. I learned a LOT about cotton from him. Go visit.

Jim, of Parkway Rest Stop fame, has posted about peanut butter. A little history, a little rhapsodizing, a schmeer here and there, and you can't stop reading. I may not agree with his opinion of Jimmy Carter, but I can't fault him for his taste in peanut butter.

Visit StupidAngryCanajun and see what Essay has written this week. In particular, read "Bullies and Bloggies" on Sept. 16. Scroll down to the comments about Dave's Drivil and click on the link for some GREAT comments heard at the proctologist's.

I was entertained by her description of a day at the office with Jimbolina, under "Brownout" on Sept. 17th It makes me glad I work alone....VERY glad!

Bogie, it seems that traffic isn't any better in Ehduhmonton than it is in New Hampshire. You might enjoy comiserating with her, if you haven't already.

Be sure to update your links, StupidAngryCanajun has moved to Typepad recently.

There's a whole lot of you I still need to visit. Be patient. There's at least one more entry in the "Going Visiting" series. I'm hoping for time to surf and find new blogs to share, too. Until then......enjoy the Fall weather, stay healthy and play nice.
