From a casual observation of your blog, very well deserved. I must admit that I am actually responsible for this award. I ran across your blog while idly checking in on what has happened to the meme since the cat got out of the bag. If you are curious about it's origin, you'll find it <a href="http://westanddivided.blogspot.com/2007/08/announcing-partisan-reflections-on.html" rel="nofollow">here.</a>. As commander suggests, this is not at all what I expected. But its more fun this way. Tim,

again, thanks very, very much for doing what you do.
