A to Z Blog Challenge: The Letter S

April 22, 2014 By C. Lee McKenzie


The Write Game’s Theme 
AtoZ Blog Challenge
2014
Stuff I Learned or Laughed at from Bloggers in the 2013 A to Z Challenge .
All you gots to do is identify the Mystery Blogger each day. I’ll give you hints when I can. I’ll post the answers and the winner each Monday.
Okay we’re down to the last two weeks, well week+. 
Week 4) an ebook of The Princess of Las Pulgas 
Week 5, almost) a signed copy of The Princess of Las Pulgas 

BY
1) identifying the most bloggers correctly=2 points.  
2) leaving witty comments=1 point or more depending on glibness
3) adding to the information and making it more valuable=2 points 

TIES WILL BE BROKEN BY MY CAT. SHE’S FAIR AND IMPARTIAL.UNLESS CATNIP IS INVOLVED, THEN SHE GOES WITH THE BEST SUPPLIER.

Mystery Blogger S’s 2013 theme: All about science. 

S is for “Seismologists and Scientist Convicted of Manslaugher.” 

Seismology is a branch of earth science that studies earthquakes. It’s a relatively new field due to the fact scientists have only been capable of truly measuring the entire scope of earthquakes for around 100 years, though different societies have had their methods of detecting shifts in the ground for far longer that that-the first seismograph was built in 132 CE in China.”

fWho is it? HINT: This blogger is soars high as an eagle.

    Excellent blog! Do you have any recommendations for aspiring writers?

    I’m hoping to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
    Would you advise starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option?
    There are so many options out there that I’m completely confused ..
    Any suggestions? Thanks a lot!

    I miss Golden Eagle too. And I thought that manslaughter case was so bizarre!

    I saw everyone's comments and visited Golden Eagle's site. I wish she were actively blogging now.

    I haven't a clue, as usual. 🙂 Earthquakes are scary though.

    That might be Golden Eagle, but I'm not sure what his real name is. Or maybe his name really IS Golden Eagle. With the plethora of names like Blue Ivy, Apple, Bronx Mowgli, Diezel Ky, and Kal-El (kid you not, Nicholas Cage named his son Kal-El from Superman fame).

    Golden Eagle sounds pretty cool. Sounds like she's not blogging much. Hope to connect with her in the future.

  8. Yvonne Ventresca says

    You give good hints, but I don't know!

    Hey Lee and no, not Mr. Alphabet dude,

    One time, The Golden Eagle asked a question in one of her posts. "What's your favourite (favorite) Eagle?" To which I replied, "Don Henley."

    This post made the earth move.

    As per usual n' stuff, your starstruckest fan,

    Penny's fictional human,

    Ann Tagonist.

    Your map is cracking up, Lee… 😉 I had no idea a version of the seismograph had been around for that long!

    Thanks for visiting the UR blog today!

    I'd never heard of this particular blogger, but she sounds fascinating.

  14. Susan Gourley/Kelley says

    April 22, 2014 at 8:34 pm

    I have to think it's The Eagle's Aerial Perspective though I haven't been to her blog for a while.

  15. Pk Hrezo says

    April 22, 2014 at 8:21 pm

    What a great theme for A to Z, Lee! How fun.

  16. Michelle Wallace says

    April 22, 2014 at 7:39 pm

    It's Golden Eagle! She seems to be on an extended hiatus…

  17. Angela Brown says

    April 22, 2014 at 6:01 pm

    The blogger for The Eagle's Aerial Perspective. The hint really hit home.

  18. S.K. Anthony says

    April 22, 2014 at 5:59 pm

    Well I cheated…but I didn't know Golden Eagle, so I *had* to cheat lol That was really cool to learn though, Seismology, I've never heard the term before.

    Ya got me, although now I've got R. Kelly's "I believe I can fly" flapping around in my head:)

    I don't know Golden Eagle, but it's too bad she's not blogging at the moment.

    That's interesting that the seismograph was created in China so long ago.

  21. Bish Denham says

    April 22, 2014 at 3:14 pm

    Even I know Golden Eagle!

  22. Michael Di Gesu says

    April 22, 2014 at 3:00 pm

    Of course, it's Golden Eagle… She hash't posted in ages. But was very much part of the blogosphere for quite some time…

    Hopefully she will fly back to her nest and start posting regularly again.

  23. Tyrean Martinson says

    April 22, 2014 at 2:50 pm

    The Golden Eagle - I miss her posts. She has a great heart for fiction, science, and beauty.

  24. Julie Flanders says

    April 22, 2014 at 2:46 pm

    I was doing so well for a while and now you've stumped me every day lately. I had no clue on this one.

  25. Sandy says

    April 22, 2014 at 2:31 pm

    No clue x 2. If I hit the science one I probably wouldn't have read it as it's not a topic I tend to understand or enjoy. But, I thought of Arlee…the bird connection anyway, lol.

    Didn't know the blogger, but looks like it's been figured out already, anyways! I did know about seismology, although I had no idea it unofficially dates back so far.

  27. Hilary Melton-Butcher says

    April 22, 2014 at 1:30 pm

    Hi Lee - yes Golden Eagle - I guess her soaring studies have kept her very involved for now … she is one bright lass, with an incredible blog .. cheers Hilary

  28. Arlee Bird says

    April 22, 2014 at 12:26 pm

    I can see that it's tough for me to get here before the folks on the East Coast, but I was close! I knew who the blogger was but couldn't think of the exact name of the blog. Alex and Nick reminded me. She did a lot of science posts.

    That would be the lovely Golden Eagle. Is she away from the blog at the moment?

  30. Alex J. Cavanaugh says

    April 22, 2014 at 12:00 pm

    Golden Eagle! I miss her.
