The Weekly Town Crier

April 8, 2011 at 7:55 am

Welcome. Thanks for stopping by. This is a little post I like to call The Weekly Town Crier; a place where I collect links I found interesting, I post them for you, you click on them, read them, think about them and then we all become enriched and the better for it. Really, it’s a way to change the world, to pull ourselves up by our collective bootstraps. What’s that they say, “Knowledge will win the day?!” Not really. I mean, come on, let’s not make more of this than it is: a bunch of links. Enjoy.
