I almost forgot that today this blog turned 5. Happy anniversary to me and my great blog!

2,150,000+ hits. 85,000 comments. Recipes, book reviews, discussions, photos, political commentary, link encyclopedias, funny stories, anger, and rage!
And, of course, the smartest readers of all blogs ever. I was feeling very lonely when I started this blog at the most unfriendly department in the universe. And now I have a huge group of people willing to debate, discuss, argue, disagree and analyze right in my pocket (meaning, on my iPod) wherever I go.
I don’t have a single reader here who agrees with me 100% on everything, and that must mean I’m doing something right. I suspect that even this celebratory post will cause somebody to disagree about something. Which is the whole point. There are too many blogs that promote complacency and uniformity. I want to foster disagreement. Cranky malcontents and principled dissidents are always welcome here.
So here is what I suggest: let’s spend five more years arguing and disagreeing about everything we can think of.
Well, Happy Anniversary!!
