old-wizard presents Top 10 Worst Things People Say posted at old-wizard.com.

Laura Grace Weldon presents The Beauty of Ordinary People posted at Laura Grace Weldon, saying, "Daily simple acts by wonderfully ordinary people may go unnoticed and uncelebrated, but they hold our world together."

Ordinary People is also a book in 9th Grade curriculum as well as a movie starring Donald Sutherland about a kid who tries to commit suicide. Probably not relevant here.

Peta Jinnath Andersen presents Reading YA: Are Fast-Paced Novels Engaging? posted at *Insert Literary Blog Name Here*, saying, "In recent years, there’s been a lot of chatter about attention spans. Increased television watching among preteens has been blamed for a rise in ADD/ADHD. Parents are encouraged to read to younger children, or get older kids reading as a first step in engaging their minds. But what if the books we so blithely hand around don’t engage? What if they’re too fast, too short, too thoughtless?"

Robert Terrell presents galactic dreamers ? haiku posted at the existential poet, saying, "The Existential Poet Blog contains my original haiku poetry. I maintain a strict form, the 5-7-5 syllable structure, which suits my poetic creativity very well. I write about all sorts of subjects, with an existential (human feelings) attitude. Many of my haiku have seasonal references, and many focus on inner states of being. And, I love moon haiku!"

Sarah Clark presents Sarah...Phenomenally: Life...unrequited? posted at Sarah...Phenomenally.

Yvaine presents Too Much Snow posted at My Vanilla Nook, saying, "Snow is good but you can only take so much."

Which means snow is bad, right?

cs presents Acid Attacks and Real Nightmares posted at Cold SnapDragon.

Jim Murdoch presents Poetry as self-medication posted at The Truth About Lies, saying, "Is poetry your drug of choice? Would you wonder if your doctor prescribed a course of poetry rather than a bottle of pills? There's no denying that both reading and writing poetry can make you feel better but is poetry therapy worth a second look?"

Belle presents Happy Tree Tapping and Sap Collecting! posted at Homesteaderbelle's Blog.
