Perhaps it's because we're nearing the start of a new school year, perhaps not. Either way, it appears to be time for bloggers to move into new digs. Hot on the heels of Paul's relocation comes Chrisafer's. Please make the necessary adjustments. [Said adjustments have already been made to the blogroll for your convenience.]
Oh, and while he didn't move, he was on vacation for a week. But Matthew's back now, and has reclaimed his asylum from the lunatics which had threatened to overrun it for the past 7 days (and yes, I include myself in that number).
It's time for a new blog of the week, as well, and time to bestow the designation (I feel like Gary Collins at the Miss America pageant) for only the second time on a - gasp! - hetero blogger. [It's also the second time a Maine blogger has been named as such.] He used to have two blogs, but combined them, which was a good idea. His entries are full of even better ideas, about politics, music, and other topics important to the development of any growing boy or girl. He also has a rockin' sepia-toned photo from his wedding on his bio page, and yesterday introduced us all to the highly disturbing nipple scarf. He's no 50 Cent fan, but he loves him some Yo La Tengo, so it all balances out, I s'pose. And I'd be remiss not to mention that he named his blog after a classic Sonic Youth song from Daydream Nation. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Erik's Trip.
But wait, there's more. In why-the-fuck-haven't-I-blogrolled-him-before? news, he's a scholar and a gentleman, and (most importantly) a fellow 'mo Prefab Sprout fan. He's akafrankgreen.
No, I'm not done yet. In today's multicultural blog corner, if you read Portuguese and love the Smiths and Belle and Sebastian, you might like Xobineski Patruska. If you read Spanish and love many of the music blogs mentioned here, you might like No Es Solo Rock n Roll.
Now I'm done. For now.
