Friends of the Abstract
This is more of an informational post than anything else. Many of you who read my blog do so through some of the RSS features I have available on my site. Because of this, you may not have the benefit to see the new section of my site called Friends of the Abstract. From time to time, I will add a link to another blog which I find very fun, compelling, or informative to this section. Because many of you only subscribe to my blog via RSS, you wont have the chance to see when I add a new friend, so I am duty bound to help you all. Whenever I add a friend, I will also make a quick post letting you all know about my new friend and why I think it is worth you time to check out.
Now I know you are wondering why all of a sudden I am posting this, and it is because I have added the first "Friend of the Abstract". The blog I have added is that of Yankee John. Those of you out there that know Yankee John is a family man, so you will see posts about his better half and his kids, but you will also find some other hidden gems with Yankee. His tongue-in-cheek humor comes through with grace and a well advanced vocabulary (think Dennis Miller if he knew anything and everything about British Maritime History). Yankee is quick witted, and is blog has many moments of great fun. I encourage all of my readers, expand your mind and check out Yankee John.
