Three more years at the very least!
I just happened to notice that Talk Left had some kind words on the occasion of Glenn Reynolds' bloggiversary: Instapundit was one of the first blogs we began reading regularly, and Glenn was an especially gracious, early and frequent linker to TalkLeft. You'd be surprised at some of the important issues we agree on....but not if you knew deep down he has a libertarian heart. He's not the ultra-conservative many on the left make him out to be.....I'd like to add that I wouldn't be blogging were it not for Glenn Reynolds. And had it not been for my friend Justin I'd probably be one of those people who'd just be hearing about the blogging phenomenon now. Justin was a daily InstaPundit reader before 9/11 and I couldn't possibly count the number of times he'd call me on the phone, and say "Hey, Eric read InstaPundit right now! There's something you've got to see." I was hooked early on, but I never thought I'd be blogging daily. I guess I'm now double-hooked! I didn't begin blogging in earnest until May of last year, and Jeff Soyer (the super Alphecca) was nice enough to sponsor me as his first blogson. This makes me a legitimate grandson of Glenn Reynolds, and I'm ten years older than he is! I was super-honored to get an InstaLanche on the InstaPundit's Third Bloggiversary, and I'll never forget it. Perhaps it's because the blogosphere is so new, but I'm inclined to agree with Jeff that it seems like more than three years. Why is that? Not that I'm questioning the timing or anything.....

I don't like rudeness or personal attacks, and when people resort to that I tend to lose interest in what they're saying. But then, I really don't enjoy arguing, because I've found there's no such thing as winning. Eric Scheie · August 11, 2004 04:51 PM |

Happy Blogoversary to Instapundit.
A very interesting blogger I know (I won't say who) called him "InstaFascist" and said something funny about you and me and him. har! har! That was an extremely interesting imbroglio I was in. As interesting to me even as the Watergate imbroglio.
