What Digby says. We wish he would have put more of Tamara Baker's letter in his post because the link is bloggered - but this is easily the best set of posts we have had the pleasure of seeing of late. Plus, he led us to this gem from soon-to-be Links Zone denizen the Rude Pundit* and a very kewl discourse about life in the Red States (among many other things...)..
Now, where is that frelling Koufax Awards site again? Oh, yeah - you can get to it right over there in the links zone, as well as check back in on the Koufax hosts as the tension builds and the excitement mounts for awarding prizes to a bountiful crop of writings over the last twelve months. As are many others, we are longing to hear the screams emanating from certain quarters sometime in the next few weeks. Until then, we're sure you can get your fill of mind candy over somewhere in the Links Zone if you're interested...
Update early Fryday morning: Also most definitely what Q says as well. A must-see posting on the Fashionable Left Bank of Blogistan!
* - Warning! some sites in the Funny Farm Links Zone may contain offensive language, linkage, allusions and/or graphical images which may be unsuitable for underage glazzies to viddy**. Your mileage may vary.

First non friend-or-family*** to email us**** with the name of the work and the name of the creator of that work wins a deck of vintage Repugnicant chickenhawk cards. Hell, the first three who manage to get it right can have a deck. It's still Christmas over here at the Funny Farm!*****
*** - who can always get an extra deck if they're not playing with a full one now by merely requesting it through the proper channels. And you know who you are...
**** - by using the Talk To Me gadget over on the LHS above the links zone. Offer void in households where it may be deemed offensive. Earliest date / timestamp from emails received will determine winners in case of a tie.
***** - Those who know us all too well are aware of the awesome reality embodied in this statement.
