Ezzie's Blog Roundup, 4/28: Great Day for Reading

Wow. There are an incredible amount of great posts out there today, and I only read from A through E on my blogroll. It has been and will be quite busy here, as my parents flew in today to see their newest granddaughter for the first time and we started making stuff for the kiddush. I spent a couple of hours shopping and bringing the boxes of stuff in from the car - do you have any idea how hard it is to carry about 15 bottles of soda and assorted other groceries in a flimsy cardboard box for a few hundred feet? And then carry a few more boxes about that are just as heavy if not worse? Hard enough that I needed to sit down and take a blogging break, that's how hard.

Hey, after walking to a friend to borrow his car, driving to Wasserman's, spending over an hour there - on the phone almost the entire time; spending a few minutes checking out and getting the stuff into the car [which ironically used to be my in-laws - my friend bought it off them]; driving to another friend to get a crockpot, then another to get a couple chairs, and walking to 7/11 to buy a few more things; going back to Wasserman's to get something I forgot; driving around to a few different places trying to find shredded coconut and failing; then finally coming home, having to park half a block away, and shlepping everything in - and putting the perishables away - I deserve a break!

Anyways, the posts today are really top-notch. People were sharp today...

*Post of the Day*

Michael Totten's "You Just Can't Believe Anyone Can Hate You That Much". I first saw this on Instapundit, then again on Daled Amos. It's engrossing. And if you're able to, support Totten in his project.

What Are You?

Gavriel points to one of the most entertaining posts I've read... and I only read about 20% of it. He also has some other great links in there.

Feuds

DovBear has a sharp post that discusses Satmar's inner turmoil. Lunacy.

Osama bin Laden

Basil has the exclusive "interview" between Osama and both Instapundit and the InstaWife. Hilarious.

Human Psyche

ADDeRabbi has an excellent post on why people will follow some less important halachos while completely ignoring serious ones.

Fun

Cruisin' Mom recalls how she met her husband - who knew mucous could be so entertaining?! Heh. :)

Wonderous

Elie finds his son Aaron's wallet, missing since he passed away... at an opportune time. Spooky.

Quizzes

Ayelet has one that asks some basic questions... which you won't know the answers to most of. Ouch.

Enjoy!!
