Every month, many EntreCard droppers list the people who have dropped the most cards on them during the preceding month. Two months ago, I simply cut and pasted the list from my statistics page. However, people who are very concerned about Page Rank, and there are a lot of people like that on EntreCard said it would be much nicer if I linked directly to their blogs, especially since as of this writing, I’m listed as having a Page Rank of 5.

I can see the reason for that, but I tend not to worry too much about Page Rank, or other rankings. I’m much more interested in content. So, instead of providing a list of top droppers, I thought I would approach things in more of a narrative. Last month, I highlighted one blog that I’ve found via EntreCard that has been a top dropper, that I’ve really enjoyed reading.

This month, I’m going to do things a little differently. First, I want to highlight Wisdom Hypnosis. Old Wall Street friends of mine are flipping out when they look at the financial crisis our country and the world is currently facing. I’ve offered some of my thoughts on this here and other places. (For more on this, you might want to read the interview I did with Cecilia from a Cleveland Real Estate Blog. Cecilia is another person that I’ve met through EntreCard, although she wasn’t a top dropper on me this month.) With all my Wall Street friends so stressed, it is great to see Debbie writing posts about Coping with Fear and Worry, as well as Playfulness and Silliness.

Another way of dealing with stress is eating, and if there is a city in the United States that seems like it would be stressful, it seems like it should be New Orleans, although it doesn’t make it to the top ten in the list that Cecelia has on her blog. Perhaps some of that is because besides thinking about the aftermath of Katrina, when I think about New Orleans, I also think about great food, great music, or to go back to what Debbie was writing about Playfulness and Silliness when Coping with Fear and Worry. So, I was pleased to see that New Orleans Food was another top dropper. Their most recent post is about an Easy Shrimp Pasta Recipe With Basil, Orzo and Feta Cheese. Unfortunately, I’m allergic to shrimp, so I’ll have to pass on that. However, I can easily see putting on a few extra pounds from all the wonderful food they describe on that blog, so for people concerned about that, let me highlight another top dropper, Paul’s Health Blog.

Another way of dealing with stress is to have pets. There are many wonderful pet blogs out there, and one of my top droppers this month was about a beautiful white cat named Luxor.

There were other blogs that dropped a lot of cards on my this month, but I especially wanted to highlight these blogs, as fitting into a bigger picture about what is going on in the lives of people across this country and around the world.

Thanks, everyone.
