Normally I don’t go out of my way to plug other people’s blogs, but when I stumbled upon Margaret and Helen’s Blog, I thought it was worth the trouble.  Two “charming” old ladies with their own blog.  They even sell t-shirts.  If you ever encounter someone who can’t understand the concept of blogging, why people do it, and why people read them, I would send them here.  Utterly charming.  When you reach a certain age, you just don’t have to pull punches any more.  I would also use this as an example of developing a written voice when discussing that topic in an ELA or Journalism class.  I laughed until my throat was sore.

If you enjoy the Sarah Palin article, be sure to check out Helen’s Thanksgiving letters to her family, both this year’s and last’s.
