Watcher’s Council winners for September 5, 2014
My blogging this morning may be interrupted again. My computer has been acting up lately, not in a big way, bit in myriad small ways. It freezes here and deletes things there. Fortunately, my go-to computer guy is in the area, and he said he can stop by and take a look. I’m certainly not going to turn down an offer like that but it does mean that, starting in about 45 minutes, I’ll be barred from my computer for a while.
Never fear, though, that you won’t have recommended reading material to pass the time this morning. The Watcher’s Council voted last night and I cannot recommend highly enough the winners, as well as the placers and show-ers, as well as the other posts, which may still tickle your fancy:
