Always love reading your work at Urbane Blog (Disclosure -- I blog there too! and know Dominique). You've added so much to the blog and clearly appreciate the "craft" of writing.

Brandon-Thanks for stopping by!
I especially enjoy it when we get a nice variety of original material and voices at Urbane. I was originally led to Urbane because I met you elsewhere online...it's been an interesting ride since :)
I've always admired your ability to write about sometimes controversial issues in a succinct way and your always thoughtful, well reasoned, and respectful way of discussing those issues. I'm glad to be able to consider you a friend.
