One more for the daily blog roll.  James Lileks is a columnist, locally for the Mineapolis Star-Tribune, and also has a national syndicated column.  He also posts to the web daily.  His Bleat (blog) spends about a third of the time doting on his pre-school daughter who he loving refers to as Gnat.  Another third is photo essays of the best kind.  And the rest is dedicated to spot-on screeds about the state of the world.  Mark him down as one of those who was deeply affected by the events of September 11, 2001.
