Oh No!
Where, oh where, is Gordo? It appears that the Feds have nabbed him for too much truth-telling in his Iraq blogging. I wonder which telecom ratted you out.
G-man, if you can read this down there in Gitmo, stay strong! As a leftist academic I have a direct line to Fidel, of course, so I think I can arrange for a prison break.
Oh, on your way back to the States, pick me up some Cuban cigars. I'll pay you back, I promise.

I'm Innocent
It occurs to me after seeing again the subtitle of the Book Meme post that some might think that I had something to do with Gordo's disappearance.
I did not! It was those telecom bastards! I'm sure of it.
(As soon as I get the address of the prison to which he has been rendered, I am going to send him an iPhone baked in a cake. It won't help him escape, but at least he'll be able to blog from whatever secret prison they'll stashed him in.)
Thanks
Thanks for the concern. The site is now back up and running, and I've got a post with a complete explanation up.
And remind me not count on you to bust me out of prison if I'm captured during the coming Bourgeois Revolution Against Inherited Wealth and Lowbrow Entertainment.
