So, per rule 2 up there, I'm not supposed to do this. But I think I can manage to write enough to make it not so one-liner-like.

I have a single mom friend, Jill, in Austin TX, who has her own blog. And damn, she writes really well! I know she's smart and all, but I didn't know she had such a knack for analyzing things so well. She draws cool metaphors and paralells and all that.
