Happy Birthday. 7 years in the blogosphere is ancient!
The best local online media place thing-y
Thanks for giving us this home, you two. Other popular and "social media" sites don't come close for fun discussions and KV is a useful tool for us political junkies. I hope we're all online right here, 7 years from now.
Thanks
