I just noticed in the post below (http://mandis-station.blogspot.com/2009/09/garrison-keillor-nice-67-yo-male-has.html) that the link is very long. I debated on whether to shrink it down or hide it behind some words (i.e. LINK; which actually would let you see the location down in the status bar) and decided against it. Since Twitter has hit the scene, link shrinking has become the norm. The only problem is, it’s very hard to see where the link leads to and I really like to know where I’m going. So sorry if long links offend anyone, but I try to live by “do unto others”.

Garrison Keillor: Nice 67 Y.O. Male Has Brush With Mortality

Garrison Keillor, to me, is best known as the host of A Prairie Home Companion (which can be heard on NPR). There’s also been a movie made of the same name.

Keillor had a stroke on September 7, 2009. The link above is to an article he did regarding his time at the hospital following the stroke.
