Recent visitors to this paragon of online opprobrium were no doubt confronted with digital equivalent of skulls and crossbones when trying to access our site. I’ve been assured that the supposed “malware” lurking in the code has been excised (if it was ever there at all), and The Contrarian is no longer being blacklisted by The Great All-Seeing Google.

Which means it’s business as usual. Sort of. I’m incredibly busy at the moment, but I will return this evening with a scalding post about how President Obama totally screwed the pooch on meaningful health care reform.

So there’s something to look forward to. And who knows? Maybe one of our contributors will chime in about what they did on summer vacation.
