HELLO, INSTAPUNDIT READERS. Hello, Michael. Yes, things will be different here this week. Not only are we not Glenn, but there are three of us. The same three of us co-blogged last fall during the final run-up to Election Day, so, in one way, we’re practiced in the art of Instapundit guest-blogging, but, in another way, it’s going to be completely different, because there is no obvious topic to preoccupy us. It’s a slow week in August, and, with luck, it will stay that way. That makes it more likely that the idiosyncratic interests of us three bloggers will be on full display. You might think that, getting the chance to write on Instapundit, a blogger would have a set of opinions ready to promote, but in fact, I’m coming to this task this morning without a single subject planned — except this one: Thanks, Glenn, for letting me play Instapundit for a week.
