I didn’t say thank you loud enough last night after crossing the 100,000 visit mark. Frankly, as early as 10:38 pm may be for some of you that’s typically my fall asleep on the couch time. You don’t stay up to midnight much when you get up at 4:30.

Some bloggers need thanks that aren’t even actively blogging anymore: Chad Evans and The MaryHunter come to mind. Both were frequent commenters here and both helped me greatly in the early days of bRight & Early.

Ed Morrissey and Michelle Malkin also helped keep me going in the beginning. My first big traffic day came from a link at Michelle’s blog. If I had been a little smarter and had sitemeter on individual pages I would have reached 100,000 a couple of days earlier.

In the present the list gets even longer. To long to list in the short time I have left before work this morning. I’ll add to this later, but let me thank those who stuck around and left comments last night: USA Admiral, Steveegg, Stix, Wyatt, Snigs, RT, and any others who may have stopped by without commenting.

And thanks to whoever it was that stopped in from Sikeston, Mo.

Now, on with the show.
