2001 - a Blog Odyssey

With my last post, I've reached a bit of a milestone here at the Ranch, one that I didn't really see coming - that was my 2000th post. It's hard to believe that I've been at this going on four years! As someone who occasionally popped off online in the old pre-blog days, I would never figured that I could keep up the daily pace I have. I don't always try to be profound, or insightful, or even funny. But I hope it's a least interesting most of the time.

Just like any media anniversary, I feel the need to reminisce. Here are a few of my favorites of the first 2000 posts:

• Three bits of flash fiction, my first forays into trying to be a "writer"
• A series of posts about the Blakely and Booker Supreme Court cases, which have caused great uncertainty at work for the past few years
• Dog pictures - gotta love those!
• An early movie post, about The Battle of Algiers
• My mano-a-mano with US National Team coach Bruce Arena after last year's World Cup
  

Right about now I really wish I had switched over to the tag format that so many other blogs use. Oh well.

Thanks to everyone who's been reading and commenting. I'll try to keep going for another 2k!
