Thinking Blogger Award

A while ago I was very graciously awarded a "thinking blogger award" by the blog Nobody Important.

Here's how it works:

1.If, and only if, you get tagged, write a post with links to 5 blogs that make you think.
2.Link to this post so that people can easily find the exact origin of the meme
3.Optional: Proudly display the 'Thinking Blogger Award' with a link to the post that you wrote (here is an alternative silver version if gold doesn't fit your blog).

Here's my list:
1.WorldChanging written by numerous authors
2.Aetiology by Tara C. Smith
3.Global Health Report & The Health Media Watch by Christine Gorman
4.DB's Medical Rants by Dr. Robert M. Centor
5.Your Health by Keshav Chander MD

I know, I know, technically that's 6 blogs. I have also been tagged in the "8 random things about me" meme. I will post on that later.

Karmen at Chaotic Utopia has honored/saddled me with the Thinking Blogger Award/meme. I rarely ever participate in memes. But since this one is disguised as a compliment I'll make an exception. Since this comes from Karmen, I do take it as a compliment - thank you, Karmen! It was nice to…

Hi Karen,
I see you finally took this up. I wasn't sure that you would and that would have been OK. I look forward to checking out these other bloggers. And to reading the 8 random things post when it comes up

I definitely appreciate being tagged by you in this meme! There are so many blogs I like so it took me a while to put the list together. These 5 authors are among my favorites, though.
