coldmarble—ColdMarblePhoto

coldmarble (User #8458) is a photographer who lives in Baltimore. Precisely the kind of serendipitous find that I was hoping for. His website is predominantly pictures of the cemeteries of Charm City, which is just fine with me. I've run a lot through the Baltimore Cemetery, and I love the William Tell statue there. In the nature of these things, his IR photos of the Druid Ridge cemetery (which, unfortunately, does not seem to be the cemetery I run past in Druid Hill Park), are pretty goth. The blog hasn't been updated in a while, but scrolling down produces a nice list of Baltimore bloggers.

jasonlatshaw—the Look Machine

jasonlatshaw's (User #26695) site is for the band for which he is the lead singer, The Look Machine. There are links to merchandise and an mp3 version of their new album. There are several songs available for download. They're all very earnest and heartfelt.

punkrockrat -- fed-up.com

punkrockrat (User #3008) shut down fed-up.com after ten years, just this month. Seems he's no longer fed up. You can still look at some kitten pictures ripe for lolcatting and a photo of him with G.G. Allin. He's got some great photos of the Buffalo Central Terminal up on Flickr.

YoBananaBoy--patrick

YoBananaBoy (User #42191) has a website that claims that "every bit is fiction". It's split into categories that make this seem true: reading, memorize, fiveminutequickhit &c, but the presence of the people in the writing is so real, so true-seeming, that I was sure it was a personal blog until I got to the tagline.

"Don’t tell someone to fuck off if you can’t live with the consequences," it tells me, and that seems pretty true to me.

Gideon - MythicCulture

Gideon (User #45056) has a very 2.0-ish looking site at religionism.net about religious topics generaly, but more about how people search for meaning. It's a deep site, covering topics ranging from Wittgenstein to the philosophy of intelligent design and even some GTD stuff like 5 steps to exercising your academic brains…. He's also a new contrinbutor to BlogCritics. His first post A Theistic Dfense of Atheism, deserves a close read.

geekyguy -- drunkenass

geekyguy (User #14813) Olen Sanders is in China. His main website is a portal to other smaller part of his site, but his blog talking about being in China is elsewhere. His Naked in China photos are elsewhere still, but this photo of his is my favorite.
