#5  I'm going to get my eyes looked at. I keep seeing doubles. I can put up with that but the trembling hands and drooling have got to stop.

#1  I missed the opportunity to congratulate Fred on his Rantburg's 10th anniversary, so congrats and many thanks!

I found Rantburg through Instapundit, maybe 6 years ago (? I get worse at estimating how long ago things were as time goes on). I think that I was slowly working my way through his links from A to Z, so it took me a while before I discovered Rantburg. As soon as I saw it, it was a new favorite site.

I had long hated the fact that all the wars against Islamic extremism were being covered as though they were unrelated. And I was always saying there should be a place where all these stories were gathered together every day. I had no idea that such a site already existed. And then there were so many interesting, well-informed comments and funny jokes as an added bonus! I was blown away.

I was a little intimidated to comment much at first. As a recovering liberal (9/11 - and the Democrats reaction to it - had put an end to that), I was a bit nervous about the possibility of not being accepted at "such a right-wing site" (I'm a gay guy and those were my biases at the time, silly as it seems now). When, in an early comment, I mentioned I had been with my boyfriend for 14 years, Trailing Wife responded by saying "14 years? That's a good start." It still makes me smile. And I realized that as long as a few good regulars were on my side, to hell with anyone else. Of course, I've never gotten the slightest bit of hostility from anyone here on this issue, ever. By now I've learned full well that, in general, conservatives are far more tolerant of my relationship than liberals are of my being conservative.

And that's just one of the ways that Rantburg has helped change my life for the better. I could say a lot more, but for now I'll just say thanks to Fred, all the regulars and not-so-regulars here, and even some of the trolls (for being such attractive targets for good snark).
