Lunch Time Links

Posted By Blackfive

Heather of Angelweave gets interviewed over at Jen's place.

Send Jen questions for her interview with me.

The Bartender and owner of Madfish Willie's Cyber Bar has a tale of the Corner of the Bar Gang.

Frank J. has another Frank Answers post up - the answer that includes the use of UN summits?, hhmmmm...good idea, Frank.

Harvey links to Laughter to Fury - a post on fear and living in a big city. I can tell you that Mrs. Blackfive and I definitely did a lot of soul searching about moving out of Chicago after 9/11. We're still here...

On a lighter note, Eric at Straight White Guy has a post on the Bad Breath in Briton...

I just sent my questions to Jen. I hope you have something semi-intellegent (for a change) answers!

Although I'd *love* to take credit for the "laughter to fury" post, I didn't write it. I'm just trying to promote the blogger who did it:
