Links about Hodgkins
Lymphoma Information Network This is everything a lay person could want to know about Hodgkins and quite a bit more.
The Cheerful Oncologist This is a blog by a guy on the other side of the fence. I spend six months on planet Cancer as a patient, but as an oncologist, he's the guy with the map of the land.
Remission.org Greg is a computer scientist who had Hodgkins and wrote about it. This is a pretty comprehensive site about treatment.
Wikicancer This is the place to go if you've just been diagnosed, or if you know someone who has just been diagnosed with cancer. It's got information, support, survivor and caregiver stories, and lins to places to find more.
Bomb in My Belly Truth, irony, all the good stuff. Plus the best post ever on things she hasn't learned from cancer.
Limbodacious One of my favorite blogs ever.
Blogs I Follow
Eat Our Brains The brain child of Steve Gould. Seven of us post, each of us responsible for a post on one day of the week.
Monday: Steven Gould
Tuesday: Madeleine E. Robins
Wednesday: Maureen F. McHugh
Thursday: Bradley Denton
Friday: Morgan J. Locke
Saturday: Caroline Spector
Sunday: Rory Harper
Chrononaut Log David Moles smart and funny observations. Actually, what I really love about his log is the design, which fills me with envy.
Greg van Eekhout doesn't look Dutch. You can tell when you check out his line of t-shirts. Hell, collect the whole set.
Barth Anderson was the coolest guy in his Clarion class. He had wit, he had charm, he had fashion sense, and despite being a white guy, he could dance. And now he's passing on those killer genes.
Chris Barzak's Meditations in an Emergency which is about his life after Japan right now.
The Erin O'Brien Owner's Manual for Human Beings When Erin started her blog, I realized I was a complete amateur. Erin's blog is rollicking, erotic and terrifically funny. Rated at least R. Sometimes worse.
Musing With Mud A blog on making pottery. There is something in me that is incredibly facsinated and soothed by discussions of craft. Technique will get you through times of no inspiration a helluva lot better than inspiration will get you through times of no technique.
Thumb Drives and Oven Clocks And speaking of technique, Darby was a writing student who is now just a plain writer and it turns turns out that he knows everyone I do. Plus he's funny and he used to sit in my office at John Carroll drinking Mountain Dew.
Journey to Babeland I met Sarah (virtually) through Hodgkins but anyone who lists Written On The Body as one of their favorite books is just interesting. Period.
When Artists Go Bad An artist and writer attempts to deconstruct her new role as the mayonnaise in the Sandwich Generation. That's what it says on the blog. How can you not read that?
Pen in Hand I've known Karen for years, but didn't know that in addition to being a writer and a journalist and a volunteer at the local raptor center, she is also a beautiful illustrator. The most beautiful blog I follow.
Austin Kleon It seems absurd to talk about this blog without including any images, but lets just say it's fun, sharp and graphical.
Ballast For my Gorge Friend and fellow writer Greg Feeley started a blog all his own just to say hello to me in mine which is not only thoughtful, but great because Greg writes better posts than almost anyone I know on a wide range of topics, literary and political.
withboots featuring Richard, Christopher, Gavin, Kelly, Karen, Kristen, Alan, Ted, and Gwenda. Oh my God, I had no idea so many people I knew had blogs.
Cooking Vintage A cooking blog from an excellent short story writer.
The Great Whatever Amy Bracken Sparks is one of the most acute and intense poets writing today. Which she doesn't do near enough of because she is so involved in editing and publishing Angle Magazine, a art magazine in Cleveland, and the film work she does.
Not a Journal (Except Now It Is) If this were a blog, it would be about Small Beer and Lady Churchill's Rosebud Wristlet, except it's not a blog. Except it really is.
Angel Station Walter Jon Williams has a blog and he scuba dives, takes pictures doing it, talks about cooking, and about Asian martial arts movies. Ask him to explain Chinese vampires.
A Spork in the Road Beth Adele Long looks at the intersection of technical stuff and creativitity. “Optimism is an occupational hazard of programming, feedback is the treatment.” Beth and I have worked together on some things and she knows this a lot better than I do. And I admire that.

I was sooo eager, but all I get is "not found."!!!

I know! I'm trying to fix it but it's being a pain.
Ah-hah! Fixed it!
Oh! The humanity!
Ow, my prophetic sole, my Uncle!
The hot humiliation of the dog costume is the very least Shelly should experience for inflicting such a rainbow of color upon a human foot . . .
Walter, I thought you didn't want to look!
His foot is so clean! He must have washed it specially for its closeup.
Ellen
You should also make her wear some sort of concocted version of massive amounts of condiments as punishment for that foot!
I was partial to the hair, myself, though the purple is pleasingly vivid.
We looked at the foot, but we hates it.
You sure are a crazy bunch!!

Bob is obviously not descended from hobbits.
