In case you missed it, the Alliance held a meeting on Saturday (reported by Mitch, Hugh, the Fraters and Captain Ed). It was one of those moments in my life where I realize what a lucky man I really am. I'm not even sure how I got into this -- though I clearly have PowerLine's Big Trunk and Hindrocket to thank for that -- but I was amazed to sit in a room of people I barely knew and feel so at home. And Hugh's gracefulness in discussing local issues with us and the presidential pick 'em poll -- I'll have more on this later this week -- was beyond cool.

I am now working on getting Hugh on local talk radio here. Just look at the lineup we have and you can see why. And they should listen to me now, for I am now Santana.

And for the record, to reassure the Elder, I only go commando when blogging at home.
