The good retire young
http://thenightwriterblog.powerblogs.com/posts/1174414433.shtml


   Another of my "Night Lights" blogs has pulled the plug as [1]Port
   McClellan has gone dark after two years and two months. I never
   realized that the Port was senior to my own blog by only a month, but
   I enjoyed the excellent commentary, clarity and insights. Given these
   gifts, my presumption and hope is that the blogger, Michael Brandon
   McClellan, has merely found bigger fish to fry and has turned his
   considerable talents toward something more remunerative or
   life-advancing.
   Michael and I were "introduced" by another blog on my roll, [2]Portia
   Rediscovered, that has also been dormant but has promised to return
   from hiatus in the near future. Also on hiatus now is [3]LaShawn
   Barber's Corner, and [4]Suburban Blight is as good as gone (new babies
   are hard on blogging), while [5]The Crazy Rants of Samantha Burns are
   still crazy, but a lot less frequent.
   And so it goes, old friends move on, new friends arrive. There has
   been some darn fine writing and/or analyses lately over at [6]Scottish
   Right and [7]Uncorrelated and I've linked Away With Words so much
   lately that if I do it again I'll probably be accused of stalking (you
   can feel free to sneak over there). [8]The Llama Butchers are as
   prolific as ever, even if exclamation marks sometimes outnumber the
   words in a few posts. I've also become enchanted with the adventures
   of the ex-pat Kelleys, marvelously chronicled over at [9]Half a World
   Away. There's a book in there, trying to come out.
   The way things go in the blogosphere you should get over and enjoy
   these blogs while you can.
