It was great to meet Ed Morrissey of the famous Captain’s Quarters Blog. I went out to diner with Ken Marrero of Blue Collar Muse and his beautiful wife you and since I arrived after they had been seated, I took Ed’s advice and ordered the skirt steak. It was a good choice, so thanks to Ed for that suggestion.
I would like to take a minute to recommend attending something like the CLC. It’s so easy to sit there at home with your computer serving as your only window to the world, but if we are to advance a conservative message we also need to network in the dreaded real world. We conservatives have a tendency to be loners, and that being the case, we always find it a bit harder to get the message out compared to the easy with which the more sociable liberals get theirs out.
On that note, I’d like to thank Ed Morrissey for coming out and participating at the CLC. It would have been easy for him to just ignore a first time event like this because it is untested. But he took the chance and came out.
You’d be amazed at how many top bloggers, politicos and pundits wouldn’t give us a hearing for the CLC. Ed was happy to lend his name to our event and we appreciate his efforts.
So thanks Ed and it was great meeting you.
Wow! Sounds awesome. Yes, I’m jealous, but hope to do something about it next year.
Well, you would be quite welcome to attend! But, coming to our blog is also a great way to stay engaged and aware.
Thanks
