Links-R-Us, Vol. 22

Welcome to another Link-Friday post.  It’s been a horrendously long time since last I posted anything (thanks a lot lingering cold that makes me sooooo exhausted…) so I thought I would get back into the swing of things with a few links…  Oh, yeah…  Seeing how the voting thing seemed to be a HUGE failure I’ve abandoned it until such time as one of you wonderful readers wants to reinstitute the process.  With that being said, enjoy the following links…

First up we have an article that has pulled at my heart strings since I read the first version of it last night.  Suffice it to say I think it is one of the most beautiful, though tragic, things I have read as of late.  It’s the story of a four year old girl who helped to save her younger sister from a car accident that killed their mother.  I hope and pray that my children would take care of each other like this if the need would ever arise.  Quite an amazing little girl…

Links-R-Us, Vol. 13

Welcome to another Link-Friday.  The type of news that I like to post has been pretty tame as of late so it has taken almost three weeks to come up with my standard five links.  I know that there really has been plenty of news occurring, but all of it has been rather depressing and that’s really not the purpose of Link-Friday in my mind…  My vision for Link-Friday has always been semi-comical and thought provoking without being depressing.  So, on that note, let the clicking of links begin!

The following link is one that is sad, comical and befuddling.  The link is to a story of a 70 year old father that shoots his 50 year old son for singing a Kenny Chesney song.  It’s really confusing and sad that this happened…  But, it really makes me laugh to think that I can empathize with the father due to the son’s selection of music.  Go figure.
