No really you're not serious. I leave you alone just a few days to engage in fierce filthy Capitalist feasts on the right side of the Channel and you jump on the occasion to distribute warblogger awards behind my back.The alert was launched by an ever vigilant Texas volunteer, and found its way to my attention, between a captivating
I then had the unconcealed pleasure to learn that a much impressive panel of bloggers chose to add the dissident frogman to the prestigious company of Tim Blair, Samizdata and Merde in France, in the best non-American blogs category.
