You will notice, down and to the right, in the list of blogs, that South Knox Bubba is the first one listed. He is there for a reason, because, day in and day out, he was one of the very best. Sadly, SKB has decided to stop blogging. As he was the first Southern blogger that I could find that leaned our way, he was an inspiration to me, and a lot of us, and he will be missed.
You can find out more information about SKB's departure at KNS reporter Michael Silence's blog. He had run-ins recently with the editor of Knoxville's alt-weekly Metro Pulse, and I am afraid this may have had something to do with his decision. I hope that this is only temporary, and that after some time away he will be back, because his writing was dead on most of the time.
Bubba, thank you and Mrs. Bubba for all you have done. I am leaving you at the top of the list in the hope you might return. Besides, that's where you belong.

A quibble: SKB didn't have an employer, he is self-employed. But assuming this is authentic, SKB seems to have taken the advice.
