Every time I think I’m losing my Twitter mojo, I have a month like this that makes me think, well, not bad. April had a lot of strong lines.
And I’ve introduced a new @8days2Amish feature. It’s the “Near Daily 3.” It’s a way to blast out three, four or five old posts on one topic. Seems to be helping drive both blog and twitter numbers up.
Thanks for checking in!

• Aaron Hernandez found guilty of murder. He's a throwback Patriot from back before all they deflated were game balls.
