My heartiest congratulations to Dr. Taylor on his fifth anniversary. He also takes note of James Joyner’s fifth anniversary as well. I started my own site largely due to the two of them, and I’ll be celebrating my own fifth anniverary at the end of April. What a ride it has been.

Dan is confirming he is considering a run for state auditor in 2010. Now, he is a Republican I would support.

There is a good piece on the success of Alabama bloggers in the Birmingham News today. Check it out.

I agree with Brian that he has a great site, but the most influential blog is without a doubt, Doc’s Political Parlor. I have included my ranking on the sidebar though, just for fun…

I am deeply sorry to hear of Ken’s death. He was doing good work and I’m sure he was a very good man. My deepest sympathies to Ken’s partner, Kathy and her family.

UPDATE: Here is the write up in the Montgomery Advertiser
I looked through all my usual sources for writing fodder and found literally nothing…it must be an EXTREMELY slow news day. Good for the world, but bad for my site.
A couple of sports notes. My Boilermakers have the biggest game in many a year in primetime next Saturday night against Ohio State. Both teams are ranked, and it should be a tough fight. My Indianapolis Colts had two of their stars go down to injury yesterday, it’s yet to be determined how serious the injuries are. I hope the best for Joseph Addai and Marvin Harrison.
Even the Daily News Digest at Doc’s Political Parlor, which normally has a wealth of good stuff, reflects how little there is in the news today.

I certainly appreciate Danny’s blogging/reporting, but the conspiracy theories that surround a legitimate news story in the Birmingham News yesterday makes me ill. What was the point of the story? The point is that the problems with two-year colleges have been ongoing for a long time and stretch further than legislators being employed and not doing any real work. It stretches to aides to Governor Siegelman an Congressman Davis being on the payroll of a two-year college. Does it have to be illegal for anybody to say it was wrong? Of course it wasn’t illegal, but was it unethical, and the fact that anybody is trying to make the assertion that this is a smear campaign is ridiculous. Bravo to the MSM in this state for continuing to expose the “dirty little secrets” of state government, and I hope they aren’t done yet.

Thanks to Dan for including me in his Top 10. He is also one of my daily reads.
