Thanks

I went surfing over to Michael Berube's weblog and was surprised and pleased to see that he included me in his list of folks he thanked as being "the very best on the web." I don't know if I deserve it--there are some damned fine folks out there--but i thank him in return. Love your style, Michael. The medicine is so much easier to take when one has one's mouth open in laughter.

And thanks, too, to corrente, Tom, tresy, lambert, Xan, RDF, eloquent Leah, and the irrepressible farmer for putting me on your blogroll and putting up with my link-imbedded comments. Your community is tight. And right.

Thanks, also to those few brave souls, granny, Rob, poputonian and Walter Sobchak, who encouraged me with their comments, and to those who visited and just read.

I'm really enjoying this blogging thing. I hope I'll be at it for awhile, and be able to introduce graphics eventually (I was a graphic artist for 15 years), and for the sake of those who stop by, getting better and wiser.
