THE WEBLOG OF KEVIN C. MURPHY: CONJURING POLITICAL, CINEMATIC, AND CULTURAL ARCANA SINCE 1999

Five for Fighting.

| | Comments (19)

Ghost in the Machine is five years old today. Well, what a long, strange trip it's been...I must say, I don't think I ever envisioned this lasting half a decade when I began back in 1999, particularly when I've never been able to keep a journal-journal for longer than a year or so. And to be honest, I had been considering taking a hiatus of late...Even before the election, I'd been feeling thin and stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread, and since then -- as with many of you, I'm sure -- my frame of mind can get quite Boromir-ish at times. But, that being said, blogging's in my blood at this point, and the onset of Dubya II seems a particularly terrible time to put the keyboard down. Besides, how else am I going to find an outlet for my political antipathies and terminal fanboyisms? So y'all are just going to have to deal with a nervier, punchier GitM in the weeks, months, and years to come...five years down, and here's to many more.
