Does it seem like the rate of dropoff for smaller and mid-range traffic political blogs is increasing? I see that Rook's Rant is on indefinite hiatus... his was one of the blog sites that introduced me to many in the large liberal/progressive bloggerhood beyond Daily Kos and Eschaton. Makes me wonder...

It is one of the dumbest things ever on the Internet. The comparison of Bush to Lincoln shows a flawed, craven manipulation and simplistic revision of history during the time of Lincoln and a deep need to recast history in the time of Bush. It's very sad that our history - our American Civil War - is now part of an effort to repaint George W. Bush. That seems like more of something from the history of the Soviet Union than American.

It Was The Worst of Times.

Okay, I lied. One more post about easter eggs - actually, about easter egg blogging. Check out the Technorati trend line for blog posts on the term "easter eggs":

Imagine my luck - I get to go up against I've Made a Huge Tiny Mistake and blog heavyweight Whiskey Bar in Philly Future's Featured Blog Poll. That's right... WHISKEY BAR!!!!

My first effort to cook a new recipe from And They Cook, Too went well last night. I can't deny, as I was adding some of the ingredients, I was wondering if I was making a lot of food that we weren't going to eat... maple syrup? My wife was skeptical.

But it came together deliciously over penne. And to think that Jill Murray invented it. Give it a shot, we had seconds (and I had thirds ;)).

If you're not familiar with the And They Cook, Too cookbook, why not consider buying it? Proceeds go to a good cause - Doctors Without Borders - and you'll get some delicious recipes in the process.

Congratulations and a laurel and hearty handshake for all of the winners of the 2005 Koufax Awards. All deserve the attention and more... so read who won, and check out any that you haven't visited before!

And thanks to all that did the work of actually judging so many quality contestants, and those who tabulated those results. Wow.

Check out Citizen Hunter.
