The wonderful irrepressible irreverent joy that is Ron of ’VENT … a series of takes’ has interviewed me.
I hope you’ll take a moment to go over and check it out.
Ron asked some interesting, thought provoking questions. I hope I made him proud with my responses.
I adore Ron. He is exceptionally funny and has a wickedly quick mind. He manages to combine snark and sarcasm with kindness and grace. Not an easy feat.
When Ron leaves you a comment you know you’ve been commented on. He is one of the most genuine and exuberant people I have ever known.
Thanks Ron for making me feel like a star.
I’d also like to take this opportunity to welcome a new blogger to this crazy series of tubes we call the Internet.
My friend Lisa started a blog called ’TWO MILE HIGH’. Her photography is stunning and her knowledge of and dedication to nature is admirable.
She may not post that often at times but whenever she does it will be worth seeing. Right now she has a photo posted that celebrates autumn in a blaze of glorious color.
So stop by and welcome Lisa to the fold.

That was a great interview Dianne! We agree on everything it seems; from organized religion, to the angry white men, to Sarah Palin, to Obama. People need to step back from the polarity of religion and find a spirituality that will unite, not divide. The US has gone fucking crazy, as evidenced by our prison population, acts of random violence, and idiocy. The 24-hour news networks are so much to blame, spewing vitriolic hatred for anyone that’s different in any way from them. Somewhere along the line the majority of people turned into lemmings following each other off the edge of a steep cliff.
I’m going to have to learn this ‘blogging without obligation’ thing of yours. I love commenting and responding to my own comments (it’s funnier and funnier than the blog itself in many cases) but sometimes if I don’t feel like it, it would be nice to just say screw it. It probably doesn’t help that I have an obsessive nature.
That was an awesome interview, and a very good idea!! Great job by all!
Hey Dianne,
Just said hello over at Ron's and wanted to stop by here. Isn't he the best? I so look forward to his responses....he always seems to know just how to make his comments hit the mark and make me smile!
Great reading!
Take care,
Kathryn
Great interview. You are wonderful in my eyes and I love the way you think, I love that you speak directly to my soul when you share your thoughts, opinions and beliefs. Hugs and kisses.
Off to visit both places.
scott - I wonder if there is a way to move the lemmings over, perhaps a Pied Piper of the Left? Something has to happen, this current situation is a freakin' mess
kathryn - he is absolutely the best! ;)
he's going to hate all this love LOL
thanks so much for stopping by
rob - thank you sweet kiddo :)
you know how much I care about you - and FOH and the kitties
nessa - thanks!! I think you'll like them both
Hey Dianne, I commented over on Rons site but it's not there. So WHAT I got to do it all over again?
The only surprise I got from that great interview was that you don't feel as tough as you used too. I get it, I'm over 50 too.
hey Mick! - ron moderates comments, it'll be there when he posts them ;)
I picture you as ageless builder man :)
I enjoyed the interview and left a comment over at Ron's place.
Will check them both out. Thanks.
You ARE a star, my friend!
X ya!

SMOOCH
We already knew you were a star.
I shall try to both read your interview and get to know Ron a bit this weekend.
Now waiiiiit just a second...I read the interview and he said that you are, "diplomatic". Was he drunk? Cheers Sexy!!
I love Ron and your interview was a great read Dianne. I particularly liked the photos :)
Great interview, DIanne. You're a pleasure to know. Thanks also for introducing your friend's blog. You're a gem.
So good to see you highlighted so well and in your own words, which I love to read as often as you choose to write.
betty - Ron is so entertaining, I know you'll enjoy his posts

hilary - Lisa has an eye much like yours in work - flawless

Congrats on the great interview by you! And many thanks for introducing the exciting photoblog. :)
Great interview. We are in agreement about many things. And I concur about blogging without obligation. I don't do tags, memes or awards either, unless I have something anyway that just fits. I really like to read personal postings, to learn about other people and how they think or what they do. I do think comments are important, especially if I want anyone to read my postings, which I do.
Love ya', cussing and all.
Sorry It has taking me so long to get over... I am such a loser.... anyways You do have a wonderful blog and I will start following you! I can deal with a proud grandma... Just not the bragging mommy blogs about how wonderful I am and look at all this free stuff and awesome things we do crap......
"Thanks also for introducing your friend's blog. You're a gem."
Many, many thanks from me, too, Dianne.
And you're right, Hilary, Dianne is a gem--and a diamond among gems at that. :) Love ya, Di!
Congratulations on being interviewed. I will head over and check it out!
I hope you have a wonderful week!
*zipping through to say hi*
Hi!
...but you ARE a star!
I'll check it out Dianne. Have a good morning! :) I agree with Quiet Rage: You are already a Star!
Finally got myself over to read your interview. Pure Diane and wonderful as always! Well done. Nana would (is) proud.
What a wonderful interview at Ron's blog. You are a hoot!
I missed you, Ms. Witty :o)
