I’ve been gone for a week from this page and I really appreciate John Forristal’s willingness to step in during my absence.  I hope he’ll consider continuing to contribute as we move forward.  Having said that, I’m back!  So let’s get down to it…

It’s interesting when you’re forced to step away from the things that interest you most (in my case politics and writing) and become consumed with something else (like work) that your original obsession becomes less of a duty and more of a passion.  I missed being here and while I recognize that because of some new professional responsibilities, I’ll be able to devote less time to this page, I realize how important it is for me (and perhaps you) that I find a way to make it work.

I will find a way, I promise…

Having said that, I’m looking forward to interacting with my friends in the blogosphere on Saturday at Bloggapalooza.  If you’re a reader of this page (or many of the others within this region, I highly recommend you come down to the Beachland Ballroom on Saturday and meet some of the folks you usually only interact with via the Al Gore medium.  I had an opportunity to spend a little while at last year’s event and I’ve scheduled myself to go wire-to wire this year (although I may need a taxi home at the end of the night - George… bring the number).  Please, please, please come down and enjoy the music and meet some new people - it’ll be a blast.  For more info go here.

That’s all for now, more later today.
