Great article all about a blogger turned book author in the Montreal Gazette.  Talk about a refreshing perspective. This article takes off like a rocket even from the healine: Blogger thumbs nose at athletes, media. The article highlights the web site, gets into history, tells stories and reviews the book. The blogger’s savvy and vision was revealed. He saved the best for the book and didn’t put everything on his blog.  The review is excellent and makes one want to get the book. Quite a cudo for the author.Â
