Thursday December 1, 2005

Canadiana: With an election looming here in Canada, Ian points the way to some good political blogs for those interested in the campaigns. Like me, Ian is “very happy to see the Canadian Liberal Party fall on its face.” Like me he probably expects them to be promptly re-elected.

Blogspotting: Warren at View From The Pew has joined the discussion about swearing and profanity. “We need to prepare ourselves for the fact that we aren’t always going to like the language that people use around us, but that doesn’t mean that we have to use it ourselves.”

Medicine: French doctors have performed the world’s first partial face transplant. So far it is considered a success.

Blogosphere: My brother-in-law Rick has joined the blogosphere, though only barely. He is declaring his emancipation from the Republican Party.
