Case of the Mondays? Life around here completely failed to grind to a halt for the three-day weekend. If you have a life, here's what you missed:

• Martha Snead has organized an impressive amount of information on Charles Taylor into a few handy blog posts; start here.
• Rory Blake, the man who plans to send Howard Coble packing in November, stopped by for an interview.
• YT posted a series on the House subcommittee healthcare recommendations that we'll be hearing so much about in the coming legislative session.
• BlueNC unleashed a new feature—NC News Wire—that will let bloggers place a feed of NC news on their own websites.
• Finally, we had a family feud over Cindy Sheehan, proving that we are not message-obsessed automatons.
