Calling all bloggers

The next meeting of the Saturday OT Committee and Operatic Society is scheduled for this Saturday 4PM at Marks Pub 1287 N Washington St, Wilkes-Barre (map it). Pope George Ringo has extended an invitation to all bloggers, commenters and readers to join us.

Michael G. Rennie the Unofficial Social Secretary of the Northeast Blogging Council informs me that he's received many definate maybes from area bloggers that are intending to attend. Our last meetup in May was a runaway success resulting in no hospitalizations or arrests. We even had a state rep candidate show up and this time we may have a few past and future candidates for public office. So clear your schedules and join us.

Mark of Wilkes-Barre Online put together a slideshow of our local madmen.

Sidebar updated at last

I finally managed to update the sidebar with all the nifty sites Gort has listed in the previous few posts. I also included three that were mentioned in an e-mail I just received from writer, artist, photographer, and blogger Kelly Gibbons. Check out Kelly Gibbons (her main site), Not Quite Grown-Up (her blog), and Dallas, Pennsylvania (The Other Dallas), which is about...well, I'll let you figure that out on your own.

Now, please keep in mind that a listing here on NEPA Blogs does not indicate any sort of endorsement of or agreement with any of the opinions being expressed on a particular site. The goal of this site is the same as it has been since day one: to serve as "A clearinghouse providing links to blogs and other sites about Northeastern Pennsylvania or by people from Northeastern Pennsylvania". If you know of any blogs that should be linked from this site, please let us know!

Strong opinions

I have an interest in rhetorical bomb throwers and rabble rousers. In that tradition a few local sites have popped up.

Welcome to Trail Creek Properties, Inc.Luzerne, PA

Luzerne Borough is looking for an apology from us before they will help with state assistance.Susan and I are being hostages of small town politics and unethical political practices. All we want is to reclaim our property and make it better than ever. But in small towns we end up dealing with personal agendas and roadblocks.

UnAmerican Luzerne County

Who am I? I am T. G.: citizen of the Earth, Wilkes-Barre resident, student, sometimes photographer, registered voter, US Army and Pennsylvania Army National Guard veteran and all-around okay guy (so I am told).

What happened to Michelle?

Whenever I click on Michelle's Weblog the screen come up blank. I don't have her email address so I can't ask. If your out there let us know what's up.
