COOK’S CHOICE

Editorial note: At my school growing up, “Cook’s Choice” was the code word on the lunch menu for “We don’t have the foggiest idea what you’re going to get.” It usually wound up being some sort of patty-shaped meat object on a bun, some overcooked vegetables, maybe a scoop of instant potatoes, and one of these, which were so good just the thought of them makes my mouth water, and I only finished dinner ten minutes ago. Anyway, here’s my choices for the best of the blogroll right now:

• On the culinary theme, Bryan from Arguing With Signposts is trying to incur the wrath of both Carolinas.
• Seldom Sober is calling on artists to get over their fear of suburbia.
• Mythusmage has found the best candidate for the 51st state.
• Kate has more to say about the travails of Canadians seeking health care.
• Zygote is pondering the difference between living and making a living.
• Real Live Preacher has a scary and sad tale to tell. Be well, brother.
• At The Trailing Edge, Steve has become a Don Henley apologist.
• Harry has become a worldwide expert on the explosive potential of BreatheRight strips.
• Dave Fried is staying ahead of the curve by complaining about the NCAA brackets now.
• Beast of Sound was way ahead of me on the whole “Cook’s Choice” thing.
• Rev. Mike is documenting the horrible persecution some people must endure for their beliefs. I applaud him for taking up the cause of these prisoners of conscience.

And that’s about it for tonight.
