Well, ok, he hasn't posted anything yet, but Michael Bérubé will be joining Crooked Timber. This is good news indeed for the academic blogging community. I didn't read his blog as regularly as it deserved the first time around, but he was one of the sharper writers out there, and it's good to see him returning to blogging.
What's really weird is that he announced his return with a 2-word fax to the Chicago Bulls' practice facility.
We can but live in hope that this means a return of "ABF Friday".
He is also weekending on Pandagon (or is that going to end now?).
Yay! He is indeed a God of Academic Blogging. And a God with the virtue of Hilaritas as well as Gravitas. I'd say more, but it would be Theophysics. I know that not all your readers like Much Tenser Equations.
