True Stories Can Be Stranger Than Fiction [Extra Extra ]
Our favorite local posts for the week:
- Wednesday was Livestrong Day.
- UrbanGrounds takes on people who illegally use handicapped parking placards.
- Scott at Grits for Breakfast enjoyed hearing Suzan Lori Parks. Reading his post reminds us to move The Topdog Diaries to the top of our Netflix list.
- In the Pink Texas posts on the idea that women should consider themselves "pre-pregnant."
- Richard Lawrence Cohen is in Oia watching the sunset.
Random Favorite Blog of the Week: We just happened on to the LJ Austin community, which is a blog of sorts. There are all sorts of posts there about local happenings and other such topics.
