Today's Entries: Almost Too Bizarre For Words...
Today, let's skip quickly past the blog-heavy political discussions and get right to the meat of Wednesday's blog results: namely, the BIZARRE factor. Yes, indeedy, welcome to the world of drunken bears, a bunny movie version of Jaws, blog pets, a gay wedding with White House impact, HWJV, and questionable costumes for Halloween kids this year. And a back-to-school blog to get everyone in the mood. So let's get right to it, shall we?
First up, the schnockered bear, which came to attention when Lisa Broxson and Sgt. Bill Heinck emerged among Wednesday's top 10 burstiest blog personalities. Seems a thirsty bear at Baker Lake resort prefers Rainier brewskies (and quite a few of them!) over Busch. Maybe that bear will be Rainier's next celebrity commercial spokes-animal?
For today's quickie movie, check out Jaws in 30 Seconds for Bunnies." (Cue the "doo-doop, doo-doop" background music, please).

This accepted wedding invitation will stand without commentary, but let's just assume there's some interesting parent-child discussion going on between the Prez and First Lady and their First Daughters.
Last week, while browsing a local gift boutique, I saw a political button that tonque-in-cheekly asked, "Who Would Jesus Bomb?" This week comes a follow-up question discussed at a Texas Faith Network conference: How Would Jesus Vote? (I'm just guessing here, but he'd probably vote absentee this year, just to make sure his vote is officially counted).
And if you're an upstanding, honorable parent who likes to plan ahead for holidays like Halloween, you probably shouldn't shop here for this year's costumes. Which marketing brainiac thought THIS would be a good, child-friendly idea?
And who says teachers sometimes balk at new technology? The industrious Ms. Ellen Foster of Spring Branch, TX, made it to No. 2 position among Wednesday's key phrases for the blog she hosts for her high school literature classes.
TREND GRAPH OF THE DAY: "Back to school" buzz is definitely beating out vacation-related buzz.
