Another blog I read is dooce.com, which is actually very popular reading with a whole lot of people, so many that its author now supports her family off the advertising revenues. (Let me know any time you're prepared to make me a similar offer.) Heather Armstrong is kind of a blogging legend for many reasons, one of them being that she once got fired for writing about work on her blog, but it helps that she is a truly funny woman and a great writer, even when you don't agree with her. And be forewarned, you will most likely be offended by something on her blog if you read it long enough.
But this post made me laugh so hard I cried big, rolling tears and had to step away from the lap top. So I think you should read it. For background, Leta is Heather's daughter, and Jon is her husband.
