Thanks

By tfk on November 22, 2007.

While I'll be doling out particular thanks to individuals today, I want to take a moment while the turkey roasts to thank you, dear readers.

When I started this blog, it was basically a way to stop clogging the email boxes of family and friends with my frustration at political events in the world. Pretty soon, you all came along, and so did the peculiar focus and voice that TfK has today.

It's been a crazy 3 years, and I look forward to many more. Thanks to this blog, and to you readers, I was able to see and to follow a career path I never would have imagined. The free books and interviews with famous people have been cool, but at the end of the day, I keep doing this for you all. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart, and here's to many more years of happiness.
