Today is the seventh anniversary of the launch of Credit Slips. It just seemed important to note the date for the historical record. That is not bad for a blog that was started, more or less, on a lark to see if it was any fun to do. I had to use the 7-ball image this because next year an 8-ball would be cliched.

I am on a family vacation this week so I think I'll celebrate the day by playing golf. If you're in the vicinity, hard hats are recommended.
