Elizabeth Edwards was diagnosed with breast cancer yesterday. (Link) Ladies of the audience, have you scheduled your mammogram?... or am I going to have to make the call for you?
Thanks to Cone, Eakes, Lex, and The Shu for raising awareness about Jinni. And to HowDoYouLikeMeNow? for the question of the day. Many other bloggers, strangers, acquaintances and friends have checked in through back channels and everyone's support is much appreciated.
I guess this is why it is called the blogging community, emphasis on community. Pretty damn amazing.
