Berube's Back and There's Gonna Be Some Trouble (Hey La, Hey La)
Was it only 21 months ago (or so) that Michael Berube retired from blogging? That I wrote this tribute to his unauthorized mock-political party? That I instituted BerubeWatch to track his inevitable return?
Well, hang onto your hats, true believers. Berube's back!
For those who might be tempted to dig through the Mostly Harmless archives and figure out when this pop culture blog became a golf blog, I'll save you some time. You see, the seeds of MH's golfaramamania were, uh, seeded in comments over at Berube's old place. Whenever he'd take a break from his hockey blogging and golf blog, I'd always ask him, "what about the LPGA?" Eventually I figured I'd better fill that void myself. Might have been that time my prediction turned out to be right--and his? Well, not so much.
So, yeah, Michael Berube is to blame for the golf blogging I inflict on less than a hundred people a day. Putting aside the fact that that's a bigger and more regular readership than I ever got for obscure in-jokes and political satires, the only fitting punishment for him is for you to become a regular at his blog and leave him many many comments.
[Update 1 (10/3/08, 12:12 am): Yeesh, not only am I way late with this "news," now I find out I'm not even original with my title.]
[Update 2 (4:24 am): Aaargh, and I forgot to mention that Berube's bloggy return means that Annika Sorenstam will be back on the LPGA in 2011.]

From the Archives
[In response to a comment by some foreign guy on this thread at Pandagon.
Michael Bérubé: And I want to know if the new Pandagon will feature Schrödinger’s Cat blogging.
I am afraid you had to have been coming to Mostly Harmless back in the day for that. - JPS]
Jan 3, 1961 5:30 PM - Schrödinger’s Cat
Starting tomorrow I will be bringing a unique cat’s eye view of the world to cyberspace. And I am not just any old cat! I am the pet of a world famous physicist!
But right now, it is dinner time. Is the food out yet? It may or may not be, if I go into the kitchen and check, I will know for certain, but for now it is much more “delicious” to just sit here tasting it in my mind - which I can do regardless of the actual state of food-outedness.
Is There Anybody Out There?
Jan 4, 1961 7:00 PM - Schrödinger’s Cat, ... Maybe
Dang! Just checked Sitemeter, and so far no one else has read this humble blog. Well, write it and they will come … I hope.
I have had the strangest feeling all day, very dream-like. It is like I am both here and not here, all at the same time. It makes me somewhat apprehensive, as if some important event were about to transp
