Local Anchorages

While the title of this post might evoke thoughts of Galveston Bay's finer points on the chart, it's really the title of a New Category over on my blogroll.

In the scant few months that Smoke on the Water has sailed the 'net, I've met a fair number of the other bloggers who are on my blogroll. Yet, distance, logistics and sheer practicality makes it all but impossible to meet everyone of them.

And that's a shame, as I consider more than a few of them to be friends of the first order.

Now though, via my referer logs and a bit of sleuthing of the Houston blogworld, I'm proud to add two superb local blogs, under the category Local Anchorages.

Welcome aboard, Publius, TX and Houston's Clear Thinkers.

Both of these are excellent places, giving a concentrated view of events ranging from local to global. And if you want some truly insightful commentary on Houston's sports teams, these are the go-to guys, believe me.

Frankly, I'm a bit humbled that these guys have me on their respective blogrolls. These are both, truly Men of Letters, and that in the best meaning of the term. There once was a time when true educational accomplishments were beheld in respectful awe and appreciation. Both of these gentlemen merit such, and that in no small measure.

I'm looking forward to quaffing a brew or three with these guys.

For now, I'm going to leave the other local bloggers in their respective places in the main blogroll. I'll give some thought to a more comprehensive re-arrangement later on. But if you're wondering who's in the Greater Houston area, perhaps you'll enjoy a visit to Doc Russia and It's All About De.

Now then, let's get on with the day. You'll notice there was no new post from me yesterday.

Suffice to say it was a Monday, and we'll just leave it at that, m'kay?

Thanks for the linky love and kind words!

I've been feeling the pull of Galveston lately, so that brew may happen sooner than later! And of course if you ever decide to come inland there are plenty of cold brews to knock down at a certain neighborhood icehouse.
