Thinking Bloggers Award

The little badge above has now been placed on my sidebar, because I have been honored by three different bloggers with the Thinking Bloggers Award. This is something that has recently been passed around from blogger to blogger honoring those that make you think. Having said that, I'm honored that Seth at Hard-A-Starboard, Raven at And Rightly So and AOW at Always on Watch think enough of my efforts to add me to this august group. I was also mentioned by Mustang at Social Sense, not as an honoree, but as his blogfather. Mustang, thanks my friend, you are indeed one of the truly nice guys!

Participation in the Thinking Bloggers Award is dictated by three simple rules:

For those nominees who wish to participate, pass the rules to the blogs you are tagging They include:

1. Write a post with links to five (5) blogs that make you think.

2. Link to this post so that others can locate the origin of the meme – the blogger who holds you in high regard.

3. Optional: Display the ‘Thinking Blogger Award’ with a link to the post that you wrote.

One of the reasons I got into blogging in the first place was to be able to express my thoughts on psychology, humor and of course politics. I love politics, all day, all night, rain or shine. But that is not all that I love, I also love reading interesting posts from others, and the more they make me think, the better I like it. Now, I'm picking about 30 or so bloggers that make me think, and I highly respect all of them, but I'm limited to posting on five. So, with no thought of denegrating those I can't list because of the rules, I name:

Rick Calvert who writes The Real Ugly American

Oyster who writes Soy Como Soy

Avman who writes Louisiana Conservative

Chrys who writes at Pettifog Jots and Tittles

Jeremayakovka who writes at what else but Jeremayakovka

And there you have it. All of these are good reads and they will make you think. Please give them a look, and make sure that you bookmark the sites.
