One of them, Publick Occurrences, is compiled from news sources throughout the internet by an old friend of mine, Doug. We practically grew up together. Graduated from high school together. Attended college together.Doug has been compiling this blog for a few months now. He is one of the most knowledgeable people I know, and he is often ahead of the curve on news topics.
If you're reading this in the Western Hemisphere, take a look at his blog in the mornings. Doug often uncovers his best news leads while people in this part of the world are asleep. If you wait until the afternoon to read his blog, the rest of the world may have caught up with him.
The other blog, therapy malaria, is being launched today by a friend of mine named Kyle. I've known Kyle about half as long as I've known Doug — nevertheless, Kyle and I have been friends for just about 20 years. We worked at a newspaper together while we were both pursuing our master's degrees in journalism.
Today, he lives on the East Coast. We're both out of the newspaper business — but neither of us, it seems, ever got our fill of writing.
Anyway, Kyle promises to write a lot about current events — as well as more personal topics. He's one of the most engaging writers I know, and I will be following his posts with interest.
As always, you can find links to these and other blogs on the right-hand side of my blog.
