A Thousand Hits!

I just wanted to thank everyone who comes to The Red Stater. Even though there was a noticable drop during my recent hiatus, things have picked back up again. As the hits continue to rise, I hope to make many improvements to this blog. As it is, I have finally broken down and added a Flickr! account, so you can expect some pictures in future posts (as well as the new icon on the sidebar, a red Virginia). I also hope to delve deeper into some issues, though my hope is that this blog remains accessible to anyone; there are some great blogs out there, but I have to admit that some of them can go over my head.

Again, thanks to all (and don't worry, I won't be posting every five hundred hits I get).
