A quiet moment in the blogosphere

Wednesday, 16th July 2008

So there I was, sitting at my laptop, feeling short of inspiration and thinking that my photo of the mighty Dome looked a lot less interesting on the blog than it did on my camera screen, when I decided to see what was happening elsewhere in this enormous democratic talking shop of ours. My first stop was one of the big wheels, InstaPundit, which I haven't visited in quite some time. And here's the first item on the page:

IN THE MAIL: "An Edge in the Kitchen: The Ultimate Guide to Kitchen Knives -- How to Buy Them, Keep Them Razor Sharp, and Use Them Like a Pro", by Chad Ward. I looked inside and it's not only got advice on buying and caring for knives, but a lot of clear and helpful photos on how to use them, sharpen them, etc. Since knifeblogging has been a staple at InstaPundit for quite a while, some readers may find it useful.

In other words, we all have off days...
