The hottest political blog of the weekend returned to the internets today, with a rumor about former State Rep Glen Maxey being up for the UT Chancellor job. It looks like the blog will continue as Austin Political Report, despite my suggestion that recently unmasked blog owner Kelly Fero hold a contest to rename the blog something that better reflects its owner.

Meanwhile, Charlie Ray of Pink Dome penned his last post for awhile. My first encounter with the blog was in 2005, when I was working in South Carolina. The governor of my home state was still miked up when he called a reporter a "Mofo" following a satellite interview. Pink Dome put out a line of t-shirts to commemorate the incident and I checked 'em out and became a reader.

We'll miss you, Charlie! (But I think he is doing a great job over at our competing television station as its new media director. He took a lot of "bloat" out of the site. He's like a laxative for websites. That's a compliment.)
