My profile is up at the Pajamas Media site. While I was sweating it earlier to see what the folks at PJ's (Hi Hillary!) would make of our interview, I can't complain at all with the result (right?).
So welcome to PJ Media watchers!
My sort of "best of" collection in the right side-bar is months out of date, but let me highlight one group of posts that first-time visitors may be interested in -- my interview with and guest posts by one of the principles behind The Second Draft (which should be posting previously unreleased Muhammed al Dura footage soon), Richard Landes:
Solomonia Interview: Richard Landes
Black Hearts and Red Spades: The Media Gets the "Intifada" Wrong by Richard Landes
Richard Landes: The Alternative to Realistic Fear is not Dumb Hope
You'll find a mix of material and postings here. I may go through a period of relatively uninspired raw linkage, then, "essay envy" taking hold, I'll get something stuck in my craw I can only pry out with a longer piece. I don't hesitate to post things that have already appeared on the "big blogs" -- not everyone who comes here is a blog addict, after all -- but I do tend to keep an eye out for stuff that hasn't already appeared elsewhere.
It's all about having my little nudge at the common sense.
Welcome.
P.S. By the way, the banners at the top of the page are random, so if you don't like the one you see, hit refresh.
P.P.S. For the record, I should mention that my "business degree" from BU is strictly undergrad (BS. BA.) and strictly undistinguished.

Comment Info and Policy:
1) You must have Javascript enabled in your browser in order to comment (blame the spammers). If you don't know what that is, you're probably fine.
2) HTML is on, so basic html should work. Raw links will be made auto-clickable, too, so even if you don't know html you can just paste in the link and it should work fine. Keep the "http://" in it.
3) Comments are generally unmoderated, which means I don't necessarily agree with the tone and tenor of everything posted. In fact, sometimes people post things they don't really mean just to make other people look bad. The internet is an anonymous place for the most part. That said...
4) I welcome you to post here. I'd love to have your input, agree, disagree or just offer a different data point, really. If I didn't want any participation, I'd turn off comments. Be aware, however, that this blog and the comments section exist for my entertainment. Therefore, I reserve ALL RIGHTS here, including the right to remove any or all comments on nothing more than a whim. Please don't even bother complaining. I'm the one providing the space and the free news and thought buffet. I don't owe anyone anything.
Anyone who posts here will be treated as my guest. That means I'm happy to be polite as a default, but if anyone is rude to the host they'll be unceremoniously shown the door.
It may pay to recall a famous line from the Tom Selleck magnum opus, Mr. Baseball: "Jack-san, you want Yoji's advice about the babes, you come to Yoji with respect."
5) Enjoy your stay!
Congratulations on the profile and on the lizardlanche from LGF. That's how I surfed in.
Congrats on the profile! You have an excellent blog, and merit the kind words.
P.S. You got some good p.r. from Charles Johnson of www.littlegreenfootballs.com in one of his posts on Sunday.
When yer all rich and famous and stuff and doing guest sit-ins for Ted Koppel can I use your Jaguar when you're outta town?
You have some "previously unreleased footage"? When was additional footage released? I thought he already showed what he had in the film he already released?
Glad to see the recognition from the other Bloggers. The LGF link was well deserved. Stay the course.
