Welcome to another edition of the Sunday Smorgashboard… or is it?  This past week I have seen a wide variety of things going on.  There was everything from terrible news and love for a fellow blogger to blog vigilantism and bloggers drunk off someone else’s Kool-Aid.  This past week I was the proudest I have ever been of being able to call myself a blogger.  This past week I was the most ashamed I have ever been of being able to call myself a blogger.  Yeah, its been a rough week.

So there are two things today that will be mentioned.  The first is actually the official tagline of this blog although most of you probably don’t realize it:

“In each of us two natures are at war… the good and the evil. All our lives the fight goes on between them, but one of them must conquer. In our own hands lies the power to choose. What we want most to be we are.” - Dr. Henry Jekyll

The second is a message that is so simple you don’t even need to be literate to understand.

Don’t just listen to it.  Practice it.

So yeah… Hilly‘s post about the Snackie Peace Movement is the only post being snacked upon today.

Let’s try to have a better week this week, k?

As a reward for feeding me with my internal thirst for reading materials… I designed this simple button for those who may want to display their Snacked upon status proudly:

Additionally… because I am beyond benevolent and loving contrary to what some people believe… here is the code for you to use with a permalink directly to this post.  So if your blog was snacked upon today, all you need to do is copy and past the code:

Smorgashboard Sunday is a weekly compilation of interesting posts, pictures, and videos that I have found within the 350+ feeds of personal or personal related blogs that I currently read.  Due to the volume of blogs and the 10-12 posts I limit myself to comment on, there may be times when posts that you author do not appear.  This is not to say that you did not have a good post, or an important post, or even a post I did not read because in all likelihood I did indeed read it.  This simply means that for that week(s) that you are excluded… well… I thought other posts were better choices for the Snacking.  This does not mean I don’t like you, I don’t love you, or that I don’t read you.  It just means that for that week(s), I chose other posts but there is always the possibility of next week.  Unless.

Unless you cry, whine, send me e-mail messages begging me to feature you, send e-cards with links to the posts you want linked, tell me how I don’t love you, tell me how I don’t like you, tell me how sad you are, tell me how I don’t read you even though you know I did because I commented that week, and/or try to muscle me with threats of large “goombas” paying a visit.  If you do any of that… then hold your breathe until you see yourself on the Smorgashboard again.  While your doing that… go get a white hat and get yourself some Smurfberry Pie ‘cause you’ll be blue before you see it.
