Five Star Friday's Edition #63

If you don't allow yourself the possibility of writing something very, very bad, it would be hard to write something very good.

    Wow, I'm honored! And if you're trying to guilt me into blogging more often? It may be working.

    Also, kisses to Miss Banshee.

    Just getting around to reading this week's FSF, and the link to the Rwanda one won't work. I'm not sure if that means the link's broken, or if it means the author has taken the post down, but I thought you'd want to know.
