Feed Me! Feed Me!

I’ve begged everyone to do it before, but here’s a second request. Please … pretty please … update your RSS feed to include your full blog posts. (Need more details? Read this.) Then – whether you update or not – leave me the address for your feed so I can add it to my news reader of choice, NewzCrawler.

If you’re looking for a different news reader, you can check out NewsDesk, NetNewsWire (for Macs), FeedReader, NewsGator, or AmphetaDesk. (Some links snagged from Lockergnome.)

What’s the big deal? Well, like Chris Pirillo said earlier this week – “If you don’t have a RSS file, I ain’t likely to return to your site. M’kay?” I do 85% of my blog reading in Newzcrawler, only hitting sites to leave comments. It makes things fast and easy for me, and results in more comments for you! (He also found the jackpot of RSS Feeds here, which includes news feeds like Jennifer & I were looking for recently.)

Feed me! Feed me! Come on, you know you want to. Like Veruca Salt, “I don’t care how! I want it now!“

Next, The World!

Nicole and I are going to run for office. Don’t you think it is a good idea? I mean, if the world isn’t a better place with us in power, at least it would be a lot more fun!

Plus she makes the coolest hats. Did I mention that she made me a hat? She did, it rocks, and I love it. I need to post a picture of me in the hat – it should be in the 40s in Houston tonight, so I think I shall wear the hat one more time before the heat of summer takes over!

In the News

It Passed…

Remember that resolution (H. Res. 153) that I talked about the other day? Well, it passed. I get enough humility, prayer and fasting with my own religion (the one I chose), thankyouverymuch. I don’t need the government telling me I need more.

By the way – speaking of fasting and religion – it’s Friday. If you’re Catholic, you’re not supposed to eat meat today. (Because it’s also Lent.) This is your friendly public service announcement, because I always forget.

Only Appropriate…

It’s been almost a month since one of my attorneys asked me if I had ever heard of a “blawg”, so I was amused to see my site listed on the Legal Web Site Directory: Sites of the Month list! Considering I am a paralegal, it’s somewhat fitting – even though this is the only blog on the list that isn’t full of posts about legal issues. (I should note that this site is correctly cited as bigpinkcookie.com not blahblahblog.com, although that’s an easy mistake and both domains work.)

It may be the only time that this site and Ernie the Attorney make the same list. In the next few weeks I will actually be launching a more legal-related blog at a separate domain. I will be sure to post about it here, of course. I’ve got some discovery to get through first though!

I’ve Got Stock?

Wow, I had no clue that I had stock available in my very own blog! Good thing Chris Pirillo offered to give his Blogshares away, or I would have never known!
