After a last fling with summertime weather (during which the citizens of Riverdale Park ran naked through the town center), Riverdaliens are spending more time engendering cabin fever amongst their families. Nothing like 30 degree temperatures to bring a family together. Someone check in on the riverdaleparkette if she posts an entry like "All blog and no whiskey makes a bjournalist lick the floor." Thanks.

There's not much to do in wintertime except to plan on what to do when it's warm again. You're so stuck in the now that the future is the only thing pulling you across. I think the riverdaleparkette will do some planning on bjournal entries that will take her months actually to get around to.

So while I'm sitting here procrastin languid coziness by the fireplace, I suggest you check out two other bjournals by my neighbors:

The Riverdale Oberserver - Written by perhaps the most critical political thinker in Ward 1, yet alone the town, I can forgive this blog for the lack of "Park" for its abundance of repect for classical thinkers. (I keep rereading that sentence. It's got great rhythm.)

The Green Dragon Inn - Similar to the above in tone, this bjounal contains some of the best writing in Ward 1, yet alone the town. At times it seems the bjournalist is stuck in the 19th century, but, hey, that's cool. I can dig. Word booty, castironskillet.

This is the part where I don't point out the obvious similarity between the two blogs.
