Defending People started five years ago today. In that five years, I’ve written some 700,000 words in 1,700+ posts and been told 643 times that people don’t understand me.
In commemoration of the day, the traditional fish-related video:
I remember the day Defending People was born. It was such a beautiful baby, and learned to walk and talk so quickly. Really, it was quite the prodigy, and quickly grew into such a handsome young blawg. Over the past five years, it has aged gracefully and become a mainstay of the blawgosphere, and (if my humble opinion is allowed) the finest criminal defense blawg around.
Happy anniversary, Mark.
Congratulations and happy anniversary!
Doubtless, your video answers the oft-asked question about the other, lesser-known origin of the scales of justice . . .
It is a great service you do. Give it at least another five.
I couldn’t imagine the world without the Internet, Mark and fish.
Congratulations on making five years, Mark. Your blog inspired me to create my own.
I remember distinctly thinking: “Well, hell, if people will actually log on to read what Mark Bennett has to say, then surely an anonymous prosecutor’s rantings could be a tremendous hit.”
Can you be more specific about the word statistics? How many “thes”, “Harris County”, etc. I was looking forward to a breakdown.
Now I understand you.
Is that you in the corset and wig, Mark?
Congrats on 5 years, Mark! You’re doing a “Good Work”. Ric
p/s I have yet to find the fish.
Hey Other Mark, congratulations on five good years of blogging. You’re always on my reading list, even if I haven’t got a clue about Harris County politics.
Only 643 times? So you’re saying I’m the only one that has ever told you that?
