What a week, huh? The news of my little blog’s anniversary sure pales next to all the bailout coverage and the VP debate last night. (Love you, Joe Biden, and the Ultimate Bridge to Nowhere.) A 5K tax credit for health insurance? AG can rack up that amount in her sleep. Literally.

2. Even easier, you can follow me on Twitter now, under the user name amyanaruk.
