Thanks guys, it’s great to be back!

After getting an email or two about this, I have to point something out here about the “Blackie” story that I didn’t mention specifically in the podcast or blog entry.

There’s a certain amount of controversy about whether the “Blackie” who swam the Golden Gate is actually the same horse who ended up in the Tiburon pasture, or just a lookalike.

After perusing the various sources of info (linked in the blog post), I decided that it was certainly plausible, and that it made a nicer story!

That said, feel free to make up your own minds …

Richard,

Welcome back I just noticed that there were new podcasts in your feed, YYYYAAAAAHHHHHH!

As usual the best podcast on everyone’s favorite city, is also the best podcast and blog on the ‘net.

Thanks…

That horse story is OUTRAGEOUS. Seriously. Couldn’t swim, hanging on by the tail of a horse, across the Golden Gate. Insane. I love it. Never a dull moment in that city … or in your casting of pod, for that matter.

I wish more people did blogs like this. I am tired of reading “schoolbook” history.
