What is a Blogger?


He’s a poet, he’s a picker


He’s a prophet, he’s a pusher

He’s a pilgrim and a preacher, and a problem when he’s stoned


He’s a walkin’ contradiction, partly truth and partly fiction,


Takin’ ev’ry wrong direction on his lonely way back home.

–  Kris Kristofferson

Robert Cox, no relation to the Wonkette, wants respect.  He wants to set up a news-beat, op-ed, broad brush personal publishing journalism effort.  he wants to follow his nose and write the copy he sniffs out.  He’s pleased that a NYT parody broadened his readership, and he wants credibility… as a journalist…to be a blogging journalist with a wide following and the respect of peers across the boundary of paid professionals and MSM writers.   At least that’s how I read him right now… this is a blog in prog as AKMA would say.

Madame Levy is a blogger.  She’s an artist and a poet and a mother and trouper.  Maybe not so much a striver…

This is still a blog in prog…

More to come, same bat blog, same bat rastard.
