This is my little version of blogrolling, something I vowed to never do, but I've been reading so many good blogs lately that I'd like to share some links. Some of these are on our blogroll, some aren't.
EpiWonk: An epidemiology blog.
Archeoporn: one of the best names on the web.
Submitted to a Candid World: progressive politics, but not a rant.
Evangelical Realism: this ain't your grandma's Old Time Religion
The field negro: stuff you didn't know you needed to know, but you need to know it
The Bad Idea Blog, apparently written by Jabba the Hut.
Historiann: written by a, well, historian, and yet mysteriously not boring.
Happy Jihad's House of Pancakes: another great blog with a great name

Thanks Pal! I'm not a rant :-)

Thanks, Pal--you're not so boring yourself.

I follow a number of the other bloggers you mention and I can say that I am not worthy of the honor of being flushed down their toilets. I follow this site as well, and I take your opinion as high praise! Thanks very much. It made my night.

Actually HJ, I do have a bit of a limescale problem down there...

Jabba? Nah: it's a sad little angler fish, in a world he never made.

Maybe "Archaeporn" is a good name, but because of it I cant reach it through my company proxy...

Ah, this explains the sudden bump in my web stats. Thanks for the link. :)

Alas, I have the same problem JP does.

A belated thanks. Now I have to live up to your recommendation.
Stay tuned for my dissection of the DeSoto and Hitlan (2007) paper, which I hope to post in the next couple of days. I've completely analyzed the original data. The results are interesting.

Well I *am* a complete rant, but I still think I can compete with the big guns in terms of blog names.
