The blogspot exodus continues as Christopher Johnson has moved his excellent Midwest Conservative Journal to a brand new home. MCJ was one of the very first blogs I read daily and one of the first that I ever linked to (and received a return link). Drop by and say hello.
Bizarro World
I never thought I would say this, but thank goodness Atrios is back from vacation. Whatever you think of his politics (the word odious comes to my mind), he is a HELLUVA lot better than the Atriettes that were substituting for him. Welcome back.
Talk About A Bad Day
This has to suck:
Thieves did more than just break into B.J. Miller’s tiny 10-by-20-foot rural home and make off with a few precious items. They took the whole house.
Authorities say it probably took thieves at least a day to take apart Miller’s small prefabricated home outside San Francisco. Its well pump and generator also vanished.
Miller lives in Berkeley, and the retired engineer was setting up the home over the past few months as a small vacation getaway place for his family.
He has put up a few posters with photos of the home, hoping someone will tip him off if the thieves try to sell the goods.

Am I the only one who gets a bunch of code when I visit Oliver Willis?
Congo
A remarkably balanced piece on the Congo from Mac Diva is an interesting read.
