BillHobbs.com Going on Hiatus

It looks like Bill Hobbs is going the way of South Knox Bubba and Mr. Roboto...for now at least.

Bill Hobbs is taking a hiatus away from BillHobbs.com and he isn't sure when/if he will return to blogging at that address. Read his farewell post here.

(Before any rumour gets started...no, he is not being bought out by AOL...heh).

Having blogged for almost four years now (an old timer by blog standards), he's considered by many to be the "blogfather" of the Middle Tennessee political blogosphere. He has definitely been a strong force in setting a high bar for other local blogs when it comes to quality...a bar that is extremely hard to reach.

As of now, BillHobbs.com will only be there only for the archives. This won't be the last we see of Bill Hobbs. He'll be around in some form or another. He's too blogworthy to disappear forever.

Have fun, relax and enjoy some time off, Bill.

I like being mentioned in the same breath as the greats. I wish Bill would have taken a page from the TNF book, though, and had a pretty girl take over his blog in his absence.

Maybe amanda could take over in his absence!

And Bill and Amanda see eye to eye on so, so many issues that BillHobbs.com readers would hardly even notice the change.

BWAHAHAHA!
