Thank You, Tito Edwards!

I don't even know this man, but I want to send a big "thank you!" to him. He's had a significant effect on my short blogging life!



You may recognize his photo, or you may recognize his name: he is Tito Edwards, the editor of ThePulp.It.

Twice daily (at least) ThePulp.It publishes a "digest of the best punditry in the Catholic blogosphere". He's listed my posts there a few times, though I have no idea how he found them! I am so new to blogging, that I had barely discovered I could view my blog's "stats"; then, when I saw a huge jump in numbers, I was at a loss to explain why. I figured it out, though! It was thanks to Tito Edwards at ThePulp.It.

Also because of Tito and his work, I have discovered some great blogs out there! And in discovering those blogs, I discovered that I'm NOT ALONE! I live in Eastern Oregon, in the Diocese of Baker. Our diocese is one of the largest in geographical area and one of the smallest in terms of Catholic population. Add to that the fact that I'm sort of...well...some people would say "rabid", but I just think of myself as "orthodox"; however you describe it, it's not a popular stance in these parts. So it's easy to feel that the whole Catholic world is against me at times. (Sniff sniff...yes, I feel sorry for myself occasionally, but I have friends who don't let me do it for long!)

You should visit ThePulp.It at least once every day!

Officially, then:

Thank you, Tito Edwards!
