> Dina Mehta: A search on Google has plenty of results on "blogging addiction blog" - i ran out of steam on the first page - and its more of the A-lister posts around this that i seem to have picked up as their google rankings are higher - will spend more time later sifting out more gems on this ! As i was doing this post, i was sharing it with a friend and he asked me what about your blogging addiction ? why is it so addictive ? how addictive is it ? what are withdrawal symptoms if you could not blog ?

> Julie Powell: Julia Child was ninety-one years old when she died, late yesterday, in her sleep. It's the death that all of us want, after a life so full it would seem she was one of history's true lucky souls, if only luck had had anything to do with it. She enriched the lives of thousands — my life she quite literally turned around. She died well-loved, and I hope she died well-fed. There is no tragedy here. It's a day for remembrance, and celebration...

> Steve Kirks: I've been sitting on a Radio theme for a few days, so I thought I'd let it out. Bryan Bell's Brushed Adamant converted to Radio use by me. Enjoy.
