The weekly collection of interesting reads from around the blogosphere.
Want to display your pride in making the roundup? Click here.
First some serious stuff. The tornado that hit Windsor, Colorado yesterday may have completely destroyed the home of the sister of one of my best friends. The Red Cross is there helping the community and they are asking for help. If you would like to give a little, click here. I gave a little yesterday. Or as one of the Monkeys said, “Ahhh, I guess cancer makes you generous.” You have no idea.
First up, the New York Times has a blog going with four different musicians, three of which I love. Here is the latest from Rosanne Cash about the development of a song she, Elvis Costello and Kris Kristofferson are writing.
Who would think that a “Match Game” spoof would still be funny after 30 years? Big Daddy over at Bon Jour, Pee Wee posted it.
Have a video camera and love The Weepies? You could win $10,000.
Dazevilla posted this hilarious little picture.
Jami had me tearing up with this story of rescuing a dog that meant more than the world to a young vet.
And finally, Craig created this hilarious picture story of that guy in high school that you hated to like because he was so terrifically popular.
Have a safe Memorial Day Weekend everyone!

Tornadoes are crazy. They’ll destroy one house and leave the next one completely unharmed. Sorry to hear about your sister and friend.

Yeah, I got to see my share while growing up in SC. Watched go through our trailer park (Yeah, I’m trailer trash from way back). No word yet on how damaged the house is, but I’ll be seeing my friends today so hopefully I’ll have some sort of update.
