Scavenger Hunt
Saturday, June 11th, 2011 09:50 amThis one's a little different, and for those who have serious time on their hands.
LiveJournal tells me that Eagles Over the Kennebec -- that's this blog, right here -- has been online since March 17, 2004. Which counts as a Good Long While, during which it has amassed a prodigious archive. Now, most of those archived entries are going to be cat-blogging, or lists of books read, or PSAs, notes about the weather and the day-job. But. Some few of them were actual essays of possible continuing informational and/or amusement value.
I need pointers/links to those examples of Deathless Prose.
I realize that I'm asking for subjective choices, and that one woman's entertainment is another's OhPLEASE! -- but that's OK; the field's wide open. Find and link as many entries as you like, be it writing rant, funny story, or slice-of-life.
Easy enough, eh?
Go for it.

best sentence ever

This piece of writing tickles me and I think of it often and grin. Best commentary ever on dealing with back brain.
Regards.

This one's so funny I keep it as the opening screen for Eagles over the Kennebec. Must be a flashback to the classroom!

There were others, but they have disappeared into the misty depths of time . . . .
