Thinking blogger award


Mad Zionist just tagged me as one of his thinking bloggers. It's definitely an honor. I have a ton of respect for Mad Z because he has the guts to tell it like it is.


I'm supposed to tag 5 bloggers that make me think. Well shits fire. That is a tall order because all of you fine folks make me think and laugh on a daily basis. I read 100 blogs regularly and choosing is going to be tough.




JAM Because he talks about life, his family and his past in a sentimental yet honest way. He also backs up his stories with expert photography.


Infinitesimal: A thoughtful, irreverent and insightful person who manages to tell great stories and teach us things at the same time.


Jeannie: She doesn't accept compliments readily but I have to say each one of her posts draws me in and speaks to my own life, problems and insecurites. She's funny too.


Jarhead John A truely honorable man who serves his country and takes the time to get behind good causes. The topics he chooses reflect the changes that need to be made in our society and I find myself getting educated whenever I visit his blog.


Tweety29: A recent addition to my blogroll. She has a lot of good things to say. I think she sets a high standard for positive thinking. Gives me something to aspire to.


I could name lots more.


Here are the rules for those I tagged.
1. Write a post naming 5 bloggers that make you think.
2. Refer back to this post so the previous taggers can read what you wrote.
3. put the thinking blog icon on your post.. optional...

Congrats! Your blog makes me think, too. I'd say more but I'm still on my first cup o' coffee and my brain is still in first gear.

well done :-)
Sadly i think my 5th year school report said it all , "Master Beast would do well to disengage mouth and engage brain".
It hasn't happened yet :-(

I try to get people to think also, but it's too much for them to accept that they are God in evolution. They just don't want that responsibility.

They want excuses, and to fuck around like a bunch of monkeys. You are one monkey that is kind of interesting though.

Even though sometimes your thinking is off. :-)

I of course am not always funny, and it seems that the monkeys like lots of funny so that they don't have to take anything to serious.

Congratulations Hammer!

I definitely think when reading your posts, and remember back when, and laugh, and wonder, and nod my head in agreement, and get melancholy, and... well you get the picture. :)

Definitely a well deserved award!

Well done Hammer. I'd have to say you're a thinking blogger too.

Congrats and a happy Wednesday to you, Hammer. Hope things are better -- or at least there are options that are reasonable in sight --

Congrats, Hammer! I like this meme because it keeps directing my attention to blogs I wouldn't read otherwise.

aww shucks....

and i was toying with the notion of deleting my blog too.

hey, the "Let's learn about vagina's" blogpost is probably never going to resurface i get over 100 google hits a day from that one still and it is only a draft!

oh, well, maybe, it is very informative isn't it?

anyway, thanks for the award, not sure i deserve it, i could do much better in the thinking department... but I'll take it!!

thanks

Thanks all, I appreciate the kind comments. Tweety it's just a cut and paste, nothing fancy.

I try not to think it is better that way...

I would have tagged you too. Most of my male readers tell great stories and are very interesting. Not that my girls aren't, it is just different.

Sadly making you think is not something I can aspire to just yet...

Thank you Hammer. I'll post about it in a couple of days. It's all I can do to keep up with all the mess since MIL passed away. I just hate to choose five, though.

One thing I know, there's a lot of good people and good writers out there. And it has been a lot of fun for this introvert.

Aw shucks Hammer - you shouldn't have!

But thanks cuz I had nothing today again.

BTW - I might be blind or maybe forgotten who I was but I don't think I'm linked on your sidebar...;)

I MUST find time to read those 5 people's blogs......man, go away for 2 days and I can hardly keep up with YOUR posts, let alone any others....or my OWN!!!!!!! =)
