TWO YEARS. I began this blog two years ago today. I want to thank Annalisa and Lee Bryant again for giving it to me. And thanks to all of you who have helped and encouraged me with it.

The breadth of subjects you’ve covered is amazing, as is the fact that I don’t think you’ve missed a single day!

Congratulations, Dad.

The body of work speaks for itself. Erudition, humor, and the range of human interests. Nihil humanum tibi alienum est, Pater Familias.

I’m happy beyond words that you’ve faithfully stuck to this blog and made it a priority in your life, Dad. Most of all, I’m happy that it makes you happy. I am so proud of you.

Though I comment sporadically, I’ve really enjoyed this blog.

What I didn’t realize, however, is how widely my posts get circulated. I wanted to see what was listed under my name in the google browser and found an unbelievable collection. But I think that every one of my posts in “Pater Familias” was included as this one soon will be!

I meant to add that I have some reservations about every bit of trivia I write being recorded for posterity.

Will it ever disappear? I hope so!
