About This Web Site
I've got a few posts bouncing around in my head, but I haven't had time to blurt them out coherently. What's on your minds, readers?
Hi Ruby,
This may be an old discussion, but it is becoming more important to me. I think we should not allow anonymous posts or posts from people who fabricate names to hide their identifies. I for one will not answer anyone who won't provide his/her identity. Compared to other local blogs, OP is more civil and less insulting, but the attacks that we do have seem to come from people who chose not to identify themselves. Any thoughts?
Last year there was some interest in having a tournament pool here on OrangePolitics. Since all of the online pools require registration, I figured we might was well use Facebook, where many of us already have accounts. (I also couldn't find a site that includes the women's tournament, please send me links if you know of one.)
So without further ado, I give you: The Official OrangePolitics B-ball Pool! You have to pick your teams before the first game starts on Thursday, so don't delay. To join, send me a message via Facebook and you will get an invitation.
Congratulations to Patrick McDonough for posting the 30,000th comment on OrangePolitics! He has earned a free drink at OP's spring happy hour on March 26th. I hope to see many of you there.
And what an informative comment it was:
It's time for our quarterly gathering, folks! This one will focus on the upcoming primaries. (local, state, and national) It will also serve as the monthly BlogTogether meet-up, so this is a great chance to meet some local bloggers.
This will be our last Happy Hour before the May primary so let's see if we can get some candidates to join us. Any suggestions for location?
