badgers.com… it is a “vanity” email address that forwards to my google account. I don’t keep a website or blog these days. I like the WSJ editorial page as a starting point, I also like Power Line and Michelle Malkin for blog commentary. I like the WSJ editorials not only because I agree with many of its policy preferences, but also there’s a bit of a personal connection.
The current WSJ editor, Paul Gigot, went to the same small midwestern elementary and high school as I did, and my folks know his folks. I’ve dated the niece of his predecessor, Robert Bartley, for the last few years, and had the pleasure of spending last New Years with his widow Edi and daughters in Brooklyn Heights. I like Bob’s writing better than Paul’s, but Bob did have 30 yrs in the saddle to draw from. The OpinionJournal website was Bob’s idea and makes availible the articles and letters to the editor from the page for free, plus some additional exclusive content.
