From the DWT Mailbag: We answer reader questions like "Where's Howie?"

Okay, we've got a little time and space here, so why don't we dig into the DWT mailbag and answer a question or two? Okay, let's go for two. Right, here are the questions readers are asking most often at the moment.

(1) So where the heck is Howie?

(2) Man, that other guy sucks!


LET'S TAKE THEM IN REVERSE ORDER

(2) Technically this isn't actually a question, and so there isn't much we can say, except that sure, the guy sucks, but what you may not know is that he's here on scholarship, and giving him the boot would mean he'd have to be sent back where he came from, and the cable-TV offerings there are even more pathetic than than they are here.

(1) As to Howie, it so happens that he cracked a couple of ribs and collapsed a lung, and has been in a fair amount of agony while waiting for some healing to happen. It takes a lot to dislodge him from his blogging chair, which is the place where he pretty much most likes to be in the whole world.

While we wait, we're happy to have the post Noah contributed earlier this evening, "Searching for Love in All the Wrong Places," and we're delighted to have Gaius Publius pitching in big-time, not least because that guy is wicked smart.

No, this isn't Howie's actual blogging chair, so
please don't ask where you can get one like his.
