Second of all, her other recommendations (<a href=\"http:\/\/selfstyledsiren.blogspot.com\/\">The Self-Styled Siren<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/finalgirl.blogspot.com\/\">Final Girl<\/a>) are daily pitstops of mine as well and it is thrilling to be in their company.<\/p>\n<p>However, I am a tiny bit mortified that today of all days, when I might have new people stopping by, I have a giant Ku Klux Klan member as the main image on my site.
