We don't need no stinkin' E


If you look closely, you can see on the right side of this image that ERICtalk is one of the cited sites (in the green!). Now, I'm not one to toot my own horn, so I won't. I figure one of two things happened. Either I wrote a great summary of the event (it wasn't terrible), or someone at the Citizen's League went to google and searched "Policy and a Pint Goetz Minnesota." I'm betting on the latter. In fact:


However, I'm not letting that possibility bother me. I'm still happy and proud that it was put up. My blog obviously looks legitimate enough that they felt it acceptable to put up (unless they really didn't look at it... which is possible). Furthermore, my friend Nic last night pointed out that there isn't much of a difference between myself and other bloggers. Well, maybe those for major news organizations... but that's not a fair comparison because let's face it, that's their job.

That's it for today. Tomorrow, expect a smart-ass post about humans and how much trash we produce.

they're probably trying to get more people to attend events like "policy and a pint" and your plugging of the two beers in your post will help.

I'm the person from the Citizens League that put up your blog. To answer your question, it was all of the above. I love seeing what people say about the events afterward, so we have Google Alerts set to let us know when someone mentions Policy and a Pint. See you at the next one (when we get it scheduled, that is)?
