It's hard to believe it's been three years, 652 posts and 53,474 page views since I was forced to start RedEye's Front Page after being booted from Left in Alabama that fateful Friday, November 13th , 2009, because of the content of my comments and other post.
It still hurts I'm no longer allowed to participate in the Informed, Involved, Progressive conversation at Left in Alabama, but I will be eternally grateful to mooncat for encouraging me to blog, and to countrycat for forcing, I mean encouraging me to get my own blog. I assumed we were equals who could agree to disagree and still remain friends. Oh well, no use crying over spilled milk. It is what it is.
RedEye request the pleasure of your company on a special a stroll down memory lane on the anniversary of RedEye's Front Page, and the fifth anniversary of my first blog post, in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday.
Those were the good old days. My very first post at Left in Alabama, Monday November 5, 2007. (Who would have thought those days could look good?) Who would have thought indeed?
Happy Birthday Martin Luther King, Jr. - Monday, January 21, 2008.

Congratulations! Keep up the great work!
Just think, had you not started your own blog, we wouldn't have met, and I would have been the lesser for it.
Remember: Keep your guard up, and protect yourself at all times.
