J's Notes turns 8

Jason Kenney at 2009 RPV Convention.

Eight years ago America had a new Republican president after a long and difficult campaign ... eight years ago we were in the middle of a lazy summer ... eight years ago I was preparing lesson plans for my two home schooled children, gearing up for the new school year.
Eight years ago America was in the calm before the storm, unaware that in a few weeks tragedy would hit this nation in a way we had never experienced before, testing a new president, the American people, and the world.

And eight years ago today Jason Kenney started blogging at J's Notes which makes his one of the longer-running blogs in what has become a very crowded field of opinions and discussion. I am not sure I even knew what a blog was eight years ago, and certainly would not have had time for one. Jason is a wealth of technology information, someone many of his fellow Jeffersoniad bloggers turn to for answers to techie questions.

Gratitude goes to Jason for his conservative views and for helping to pave the way for older bloggers like myself to find a voice and join in the debate. Congratulations and happy anniversary to J's Notes.

Congratulations from fellow bloggers:
- Jim Hoeft at Bearing Drift: J's Notes is eight years old
- Doug Mataconis at Below the Beltway: Eight years of blogging
