    Just wanted thank you for the comment over at my blog, and to tell you that I was really returning the favour on the link to here since you linked to me earlier on your Ken Krayeske post… And I figured that was a most appropriate post to link to you on with you moving to the east soon an’ all. I try and return the favour of a link anytime I can.

    BTW… Nice Blog you have here. And you will enjoy CT since we are pretty pro-active in the Blogosphere and politically. Two sites you might want to check into before you get here:

    My Left Nutmeg (Progressive community Blog)

    Connecticut Local Politics (Group Blog of right, left, and center Bloggers)

    Looking forward to your east coast arrival…
    Stephen :)
