A lot of the action at Citizen Wausau happens on the personal blogs. Links to recent posts show up on the sidebar here on the front page, but we also wanted to call attention to the individual blogs by offering a handful of links to posts that caught our eye. This is something we hope to do weekly. So here are a few — and only a few– highlights of what Citizen Wausau users have been blogging about lately.
A few – and only a few – highlights from Citizen Wausau user blogs in the past week or so. CW rolls deep.
The Green Bay Packers News blog has been doing great obsessive off-season coverage and YouTube-pulling for the past month or so. His latest post includes some spirited ESPN-bashing and a passel of videos.
Alex Tallitsch of “The Search for Redemption” blog posted some lyrics to a rap song that were sort of personal and introspective, but then he took that post down for some reason. However, you can still read his first-person account of a fictional African safari:
As a journalist I had been assigned to cover this growing trend for the Centre Daily Times in State College, Pennsylvania, and one would expect that I would have been eager to document the almighty safari, a luxury usually reserved for those with considerably more wealth than me. However, having viewed any kind of hunting as nothing more than savagery, I felt my disinclination justified at the time and had remained skeptical and equally diffident right up until my ship had docked at its Kenyan port.
The “Things I Have Thought of Carefully” blog considers the manners of Wisconsinites and finds them seriously wanting.
