Reading blogs seems to be such a more personal form of internet communication that you feel like you have lost a good friend when they stop blogging.  You seem to get so much more of the sense of a person through weblogs then through your average editorial or columnist.  Also thought there are more and more people blogging and this cycle of people starting and stopping will probably always continue.  Maintaining a blog seems easier from the outside then actually doing it.  I remember hearing talk show hosts mentioning people saying that they have such an easy job since they only have to work three hours of day.  This also seems true of most bloggers, especially pundits that there is more work involved then what you read.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>John Betts is back to blogging at Just Your Average Catholic Guy and Boycott CAI.
