Happy (slightly belated) birthday
The day passed without it being mentioned, but on August 6th Fetafilter offically turned 2 years old! Exploding onto the blogging scene, Fetafilter hit the ground running that day in 2004 with two hard-hitting posts, first by Markie:
Testing
Testing. One, two, thuhree.

Then Cass:
Mark....
...this idea is absolutely mint. You know that, right?

From that moment on, there has been no looking back. While there have been a few changes to the format over the years, the current "Old No. 7" graphic design has been the most popular and enduring. It is the work of Markie VDH a most talented artist-type from the deep south and recent transplant to Mass.

Having noticed the passing of this milestone, I just spent maybe an hour perusing the archives, starting from the first post. It is a fascinating document of the flow of people and events around and through our lives. There is everything here: political and theological commentary, weather reports, (slightly suspect) relationship advice, travels, goofy pictures, biting sarcasim, funny stories and just plain nonsense, laughing, crying, engagements, birthdays, deaths. And most everything else in-between.

What a truly wealthy guy I am.

Happy Birthday Fetafilter!
