Corrente is a proud recipient of a 2006 Golden Monkeyfist Award! The trophy will be prominently displayed behind the Mighty Corrente Building Wet Bar for all to admire as they sip their microbrews.

Check out the other winners. It's like the A-List of the B-list blogs. I have a theory that the A-list blogs will lose their value to readers as their swelling mass causes them to be increasingly influenced by the Beltway's gravity. The initial value of blogs was their independence and honesty. I think true info-conoisseurs will increasingly turn to the B-list for bloggy goodness.

Thanks, Monkeyfister!

Congratulations. I have no idea what that is, but I'm glad you won it and feel it was well-deserved.

Good reading! Favorite quote: What could go wrong?
Beyond war, inflation, the end of the technology/productivity wave, and financial collapse, we think the most potent and short-term threat would be societies demanding a more ‘equitable’ share of wealth.

Random term

CW

Conventional Wisdom. Usage example: The slightly stale CW, as promulgated by bigfoot "Dean" Broder. (As an abbreviation for the name of a certain C-list blog, CW may alternatively mean the opposite of "Conventional Wisdom.")

I support Americans United for Separation of Church and State.

Americans United is dedicated to preserving the constitutional principle of church-state separation as the only way to ensure religious freedom for all Americans.
