Cool and Collected

Collecting pop culture toys, comics, and collectibles collections

February 11, 2013 By 20 Comments

This week’s assignment from the League: I Love…

I love pop culture

Love is in the air. Valentine’s Day is just a few days away, so it only makes sense that this week’s topic relates to items we hold close to our hearts.  This week’s assignment from the League of Extraordinary Bloggers:

–

Write a stream of conscious post listing the things you love and hold dear.  

—

Need some inspiration? Just look up Crash Davis’ speech (NSFW) in Bull Durham about things he believes in–that’s what we’re going for this week!

league logo Once you put up a post on your site add a comment below with the URL. Next Monday, I will put up a post here on Cool & Collected with a list of all the contributing blogs. Once that list is posted, if you haven’t already done so, try to incorporate at least three of your fellow League members’ links (but more would be great!) into the article you wrote on your site.

By cross-posting like this, we will help each other out by sending new readers to each other’s sites. Have fun!

(Wondering what the heck this is all about? We’re recruiting for this loose-knit, rag tag crew! Here are the details for contributing to The League.)

      I love that you mention “Sweet Freedom”. My husband and I were dancing in the kitchen to it while making breakfast on Saturday. That’s such a great song.

        Thanks! It’s literally the anthem of my summer. I play it on my ride home on repeat on the last day of school every year. I’m a teacher =)

    I’ve finally returned to The League roundtable. My sword is extra sharp. I’ve been sharpening it for a year. 😉
