Happy Birthday to us (and an announcement)

Anne Linehan reminded me a few days ago that the blog's third birthday was approaching.

Sure enough, our first posts here were on September 19, 2004. So, Happy Birthday to us!

We weren't quite sure how our city-specific, LA Examiner-like follow-up to the successful Chronically Biased project would fare, but we at least had in mind a web project that we thought would be fun and different.

It's definitely been fun! That it continues to generate interest among the city's pols, journalists, bloggers, and our wonderful commenters is even more gratifying. Whether you agree with our posts or not, we're pleased when Houstonians take more of an interest in our great city. That's sort of the point of it all.

That and having a drink with our net friends! We'll definitely be planning a birthday celebration in the near future.

But (now for the announcement part)... it will have to wait a couple of weeks. On Friday, Callie and I are off on a long-planned excursion to Greece (and Turkey, if I get my way) for a couple of weeks. We may check our email if we find suitable internet cafes, but we intend mostly to be unplugged. So, starting Friday, no posts from me until sometime in early October. Please play nice while I'm away (and keep an eye on those crafty pols). Opa! :)
