Well, if it’s any consolation at ALL I’ve told all my colleagues what a wonderful time I had chatting with you, how very fun it was, and how incredibly generous you were to chat as long as you did.

I shall now slink off, tail between my legs, head hanging low, for making you miss your queue! I was thinking someone was going to come back and get us in time and didn’t even watch the clock. I wish now that I had and had gotten you over to the library myself.

I owe you one!

PS Side note here…I loved the comments about who shouldn’t blog too. For some reason my fellow TOS folk all looked at me on the anger thing. Hmmmmmmm. Point taken. *grin*

I thought that it was a terrific conference!

Blessings in Christ,

It’s funny that I have hardly blogged this week because I have spent all of my time getting ready for, travelling to and from, and participating in GodBlogCon. I don’t know, something just seems ironic about that – it’s like

I have often been surprised at the knee jerk reaction of many who assume conservative blacks are playing to an audience of whites..and still in the plantation. On the contrary, LaShawn’s blog is racially diverse, and is NOT a white cheering section….

The facts do not support the theory..

GET EMPIRICAL..NOT HYSTERICAL….

I had originally volunteered to do one of the break-outs but but Dr. Andrew Jackson thought better of it.

Let’s hope they have the next one in D.C. Even though I don’t live there anymore, it’s just a hop-n-a-skip from Raleigh — well Apex.

Then again, if they’re going to do it in August, then perhaps someplace a bit more balmy like Buffalo. This would give our Canadian peeps a chance to show up in force.

Don’t worry, I think we could take’m in a fair fight.

I’ve tired of every conservative radio host I’ve listened to except Hugh Hewitt. I think it’s because, as Evon and MJ note, he has very interesting guests and has conversations with them. I’d never know what James Lileks and Mark Steyn sound like without his show, or realize how bright and witty they are in person as well as in print.

I think the other thing that makes Hugh’s programs interesting is that he doesn’t take himself too seriously. He seems to be having a great time, joking with his callers and producer and others working with him. Call it sociability. He’s a very good debater, and has a breadth of experience that makes his ideas interesting and persuasive.

One think I really like about his show is that he reads his email during the program, which allows more than just those willing to sit and wait on hold to participate. He’s read several of my emails on the air.

I have to mention too that he single-handedly has turned me into a USC fan.

Iraqis ignore threats of terrorist attacks to cast votes in a successful constitutional referendum. This is terrible news for the Left. Andy Roth gives us a little heads-up on how the states are redistributing the money that was extorted from…

A couple of years ago my sister and I were listening to him after driving to the top of Pike’s Peak. He was dissecting an environmental study on polar bears reported in the LA Times. Since polar bears are big and dangerous and difficult to catch and tag, the study was done on brown bears and the results equated to polar bears. Hugh humorously picked apart the test results and had my sister and I laughing hysterically all the way from Colorado Springs to Denver. And, if it weren’t for Hugh, I might never have heard of the hapless toad.

My wish is that some day soon he’ll ask La Shawn to be a guest host on his show.

Everybody is live blogging at GodBlogCon. Everybody but me, that is. The session starts, laptops whip out, and the room is filled with the clatter of fingers tapping and rattling across keyboards. It’s actually pretty impressive. I sat next to LaShawn…
