Mattsapundit

I’d like to express my gratitude to everyone who’s helped me with Mattsapundit along the way.

First, thanks to Anne Linehan, who got me started at Chronically Biased way back in 2004. Thanks also to her blogHOUSTON compatriot Dr. Kevin Whited, who’s been invaluable with links, great comments and design ideas, but I still won’t let him do surgery on me.

Special thanks go out to Lone Star Times publisher David Benzion. Sure, the guy humps inflatable rhinos, but he lets me put my ideas before thousands of readers a day, and I’m very grateful.

Thanks also to my fellow bloggers at Lone Star Times — De, Jeremy Weidenhof, Owen Courrèges, Rorschach, Ree-C Murphey, Squawkbox, Songbird, Astrosmith and TexasTommy. They’re a group of the smartest, most dedicated people out there, and it’s been an absolute pleasure to work with them.

Thanks to Laurence Simon, whose generous offer of a free ad sent hundreds of readers my way.

Thanks to Rob Booth, who’s a great guy. Small business owner, veteran, Night Hawk connoisseur. Salt of the earth.

And thanks to my readers. Your links, emails and comments keep me going.
