For more than a year now, I have brought you uninterrupted daily commentary on the happenings of our world, from environmental concerns to LGBT rights to raw presidential politics. I’m honored and humbled that so many readers have logged on to DavidMixner.com, and I have enjoyed each of your thoughtful comments. I will continue to work hard to provide fresh and interesting content in the New Year. Guy430

Unfortunately, I have to take a break from blogging for the next two weeks. On Monday, I will have intensive surgery on my throat to remove a massive tumor, which is thankfully benign but troublesome nonetheless. Since this procedure will be more invasive, I have been ordered to rest completely for two weeks afterwards.

We all expect a full recovery and no complications. Everyone should have such good news!

With sadness, I feel that the best approach is to give you all a two week holiday while I recover. So, please know that I’ll be back online on January 2 to greet you on your first day back to work in 2008. More importantly, rest assured that I will be back in time to provide my unvarnished thoughts on the Iowa caucuses on January 3.

There is no way that I can thank you enough for all your support during this past year. Our readership continues to grow by leaps and bounds and for that I am very grateful.

Now is also a good time for me to personally thank all those who have helped bring this blog to you everyday, including Jim Baker, Steven Guy, Jonathan Stoller, Brian Gratwicke, Patrica Annison, Rhys Gerholdt, Attila and all those contributors who stimulated our mind and touched our soul.

Much love and peace.

David Mixner
