It’s time to take and give.
My blogroll needs to be minimized and advanced. I evidently have a different take on blogrolls than other blogs I’ve visited. Most blogs contain massive lists of blogs that no one would remotely have the time to visit. I predicate my blogroll on the apparently unique theory that their content intrigues me and/or I visit them with regularity. I place and introduce every blog to my roll personally.
Revka’s Take existed in honor of her fabulous blog but I must needs take this room. This costs me the greatest amount of emotion because I found her site not only refreshing but one of the first to support me completely. Life just got in the way of her ability to blog consistently.
I have likewise liberated CC Christian and Quid Novi, due to a dearth of activity.
The Usual Suspects list must needs be expanded and it is beyond high time for this.
I would like to add and introduce:
1. Wordsmith:
His blog, Sparks From the Anvil, at:
2. Shoprat:
His blog, The Educated Shoprat, at:
3. Nightcrawler:
His blog, America Under Attack at:
4. Gunny John:
His blog, Jarhead’s Firing Range, at:
You must directly go now to their sites and bask in the glory that is their illumination. It is indeed an honor to sport them on my blogroll for inclusion to the Usual Suspects list.

Hey, thanks for the plug! Also, I upped my font on Haloscan so hopefully it’ll be easier to read. I never gave it much thought before but after I increased the size, I discovered you were on to something! Comments I don’t have to squint to read… who’d have thunk it?
Oh, and I’m off to peruse the other blogs you’ve plugged (I already visit Wordsmith).

Hey BZ:
Thanks for providing these links! Blogging is a strange thing because sometimes you are really ON and other times, it takes so much energy…I look forward to visiting these sites because I need to expand my horizons. If I didn’t visit you and Patrick and Dee, I would be even more out of touch than I am right now!
I have seen Shoprat and Wordsmith comment on other blogs so I am sure we will be in for a treat.
I thought of you this weekend because I am in Nevada, seeing the snow and sage brush:) Hope all is well with you and your family:)
Nightcrawler: my eyes thank you, sir, and it is my honor to blogroll you indeed!
Mahndisa: hope you’re feeling better!! Cool, where in Nevada? I’m guess they don’t have much snow except on the western slope.

I’ll have to check some of these out… thanks for the heads up on these… I’ve also answered your questions… feel free to hit me with any other info you might need if you choose that route…
My wife mysteriously stopped limping.
Thanks for the addition. I’ve long had you on my blogroll, visiting from time to time, since we have mutual blogbuddies in common.
I too use my personal blogroll to simply keep track of my personal favorites. Granted, my list of favorites has grown tremendously, but I still visit them all regularly (some more regularly than others).
Thanks for the plug BZ, I enjoy reading your insight as well.
I can testify that both Wordsmith and Shoprat are awesome guys. I visit their blogs often.

BZ: Mendin, Carson City and Tahoe, but mostly Mendin Genoa area:)
BWH: I know, I was holding her back. Wordsmith: thank you most kindly indeed! It’s an honor. Gunny: it’s an honor to have you here and have you serve for our nation as well! LMC: you’re absolutely correct, their blogs are outstanding and it was high time I feature them here! Mahndisa: ah, gotcha! I see! Don’t know if you or your husband like this kind of stuff, but in Reno there is this huge place called “Sportsman’s Warehouse” that has TONS of cool outdoor stuff and, if you didn’t know, Cabela’s is slated to have a west coast store just west of Reno on I-80.

Thanks for linking to me and letting your readers know. I need to do something similar over the next couple of days.
Shoprat: it was my pleasure entirely, sir!
