Andrew is due back tomorrow. As always, I've had a fabulous time guest-blogging for him. Chris is right that the Dish's catbird seat makes one feel like a kitten running on a slide, but it's a great gig and I thank Andrew for trusting me with the reins. Blogging this week wouldn't have been nearly as enjoyable without readers' e-mails and tips. Many thanks to everyone who wrote in. Even greater thanks to Chris, who managed to do a remarkable amount of posting while also working his regular job at the Hotline and battling a cold.
Lastly – for the record – my natural blogging environment is much closer to this than this.
