honored, i am. . . and still on vacation -- so:

my sincere appreciation goes to
liberality for naming me as one
of her thinking blogger awardees.

i am posting from the road, so this
will include mostly the bare essentials:

(1) thanks to liberality!

(2) go visit these five very
solid -- thought-provoking blogs:

liberality liberal

talk left

the next hurrah

fire dog lake

think progress

talking points memo

ooh! -- shiny new badge at right. . .

the rules:

i, too, must display the rules about the
honor, and ao, i will do so now:

1. if, and only if, you get tagged, write a
post with links to 5 blogs that make you think.

2. link to this post so that
people can find the exact origin of the meme.

3. optional: proudly display the
thinking blogger award on your site
with a link to the post that you wrote.

check. done. over, under, and out.

off the grid -- on the road, again. . .
