Today's Post of the Day is an excellent 2-for-the-price-of-1 journal entry from Randilicious. I especially like her description of the things one must say and do in order to get an underachieving bunch of first graders to stop sucking.

Check it out here.

Runner-up: Dan Dunford's innocent query on the subject of Fatty Arbuckle.

Today's Post of the Day is the return of Scott Jennings after a one-month disappearance.

Look at how awesome he is.

Runner-up: Dan Goldstein's notes on the capture of the sniper.

Today's Post of the Day highlights a Southern tradition: Red Velvet Cake. Lil'buttercup offers her recipe for the bright-red dessert as part of a very thematic entry in her journal, "The Kitchen." Touching on Killgore and Christian Science as well, this post is titled "Blood."

How do you feel about "Youth Focus" in the Off-Topic Forum?

Love it? Hate it? Think that rickyboy is intelligently exploring the attitudes and public faces of the youth of today? Think he's trying to settle petty high school gripes by publicly humiliating unwitting children?

Whatever you think, it's sure got people talking, and that's why the new installment of "Youth Focus" is today's Post of the Day.

Hey everyone, meet Stephanie H.

Congratulations to Sean Taylor, who ate his 31st day of pizza and documented it in today's Post of the Day.

I greatly enjoyed Sean's epic journey through the world of New York pizza. I hope in his finale he reaches grand conclusions about pizza... and life.

Runner-up status goes to the post that was certainly the most exciting for me personally today.

The "Send These Bands to Hell" thread in Off-Topic Forums has generated a lot of debate. (This includes Ross White responding to my attempt at pre-emptive peacemaking with an IM reading only, "Send Dan Kois to hell!")

Beer Can's impassioned defense of Bob Seger (and attack on many others) is today's Post of the Day.

I really enjoy sandbag's Off-Topic journal "The Army of the Republic." He's an Army officer currently on duty in former Yugoslavia. Today's entry, lessons in accountability, is another interesting look at how surprising kindness can improve even the most rigid bureaucracy. It's today's Post of the Day.

Congratulations to lil'buttercup for quitting her job and finding a new, better one! I'm curious... what law firm swallowed up her small, progressive, fun law firm? Hogan and Hartson? Humphrey and Halibut? Hogarth Hughes?

Julie's resignation letter is today's Post of the Day. If this link sends you to a different post in her journal, sorry -- the search function has been disabled.

Chris Kula details the travails of his various high school and college bands in today's very funny Post of the Day.

In high school my friend Kurt Festge and I hypothesized a hip-hop duo called the Honky Snow Tribe.

Quite a spirited discussion over in the Off-Topic boards on the subject of engagement rings. This discussion has yielded a bunch of lovely, heartfelt posts, but I think this sensible and smart post by Betsy is today's Post of the Day.
