If I might, I’d like to note the passing of the person responsible for the likely inspiration for Friday Squid Blogging, Kevin Drum, aka Calpundit, who since 2002 blogged and brought us Friday Cat Blogging.

I didn’t personally know Kevin, though I followed him for years as he moved from his own site to the Washington Monthly to Mother Jones and back to his own site, though we did correspond a few times as I had the temerity to gently chide him on some of his uses of regression curves and he was kind enough to politely respond.
