Fool's April: the blog by kwugirl
...where nothing is sufficiently foolproof for the sufficiently talented fool
Links of interest
The Links List
This used to be how I would access all my daily (or almost daily) reads but now through the magic of Bloglines I don't really need it anymore. It's still interesting though, and I'll update it once in awhile with the blogs or sites that I really like. You can see my Bloglines blogroll here. The categories I put things into aren't always very accurate, but they make sense enough to me. Each section is in alphabetical order by the author's name.
