TalkLeft is now three years old. How the time flies...

Many, many thanks to the readers and bloggers who have visited, commented and linked to us.

With 6.5 million visits, almost 11 million page views and three Koufax awards for Best Single Issues blog, I'm proud to say the site is still going strong. I hope you'll all stick around, the best is yet to come, as TChris and I continue to focus on the politics of crime - and the crime in politics.

Update: A special thanks to Skippy for his very flattering birthday wishes. Whenever I need to smile, Skippy's always the first place I turn.

    Hippo Birdies, TL! btw, the "Home" link is still dead for me in all but the "Category Archives." Is it just me?

    Mazel tov !! Your uncompromising defense of the rule of law is invaluable, and, more impressively, your site continues to remain of the highest quality.

    Happy Birthday, TL & J!! How many human years does a blog year equal in this accelerated era of ours? More than a dog's 7? Or is that a cat's 7? I sent my gift in cold, hard cash via soft, warm plastic. Buy yourself something nice. Peace out and keep on.

    This calls for a grand celebration...Let's close off the streets, bring in some marching bands, a few floats featuring some of the regulars (you know who you are), and throw ticket tape and balloons from the skyscrapers as the guests of honor are feted for their work with this blog. Happy birthday, TalkLeft, and thanks for having me at the party!
