"From this hour I ordain myself loos'd of limits and imaginary lines, going where I list, my own master total and absolute, Listening to others, considering well what they say, Pausing, searching, receiving, contemplating, Gently, but with undeniable will, divesting myself of the holds that would hold me."
Walt Whitman (1819-92)
"When I look back now over my life and call to mind what I might have had simply for taking and did not take, my heart is like to break."
Akhenaton (d. c.1354 BC)

No definitions or quotes this time, its time yet again for my Blogger Idol top five for this week!
All of the entries this week were especially interesting to me, since I was the unnamed guy that suggested the topic of "Oops." Originally, I had thought that it would generate personal stories of times when we were less than stellar, but I was, as usual, amazed at the differing ways in which it was interpreted.
So, without further ado, here's my top five in no particular order, with an extra one since my list is late:
Downtown Chick Chat » Girls Night Out I know, its just a joke, but it was a good joke.
Deneice » I'm an Oops!This is one of the ones that really caught me off guard. If you can read this and not cry, you're already dead. Deneice is still batting 1,000 on this blog.
Seasons of Violet » Lesson in how not to write a cover letter.An excellent and creative entry. Just for the record, those perks at the end don't fix a bad job; been there, done that.
