Good (news) Friday: This Journal is two years old!
Yesterday, I celebrated the two-year anniversary of The iPINIONS Journal, which is quite a feat considering I did not think it would survive two months.
Therefore, I would like to celebrate the occasion by thanking all readers, especially the few who have supported it from day one.
I launched this journal after being persuaded that it would be a convenient way to share thoughts about current events amongst my small circle of friends. Indeed, I suspect many of you can relate to having such busy lives that you communicate primarily by emails and debate issues more often on blogs than in personal gatherings.
I was too ignorant about the pervasive nature of the blogosphere, however, to appreciate its potential for disseminating my daily musings to every corner of the earth. And I’ve been humbled and honoured by the interest so many people outside my inner-circle have shown in them.
So, here’s to what I hope will be another year of my dutiful rendering and your faithful reading of my daily iPinions.

NOTE: On Tuesday the host of the annual conference of Caribbean Heads of Government, St Vincent and Grenadines Prime Minister Dr Ralph Gonsalves, decided to ape black Americans by calling on Caribbean governments to demand a full apology and reparations from Europeans for African slavery.
But click here to read my article - published today at CNN - detailing why this is such a hopelessly misguided idea.
Here is another link for you Anthony.

Don’t know why the previous link didn’t work.
Thanks to all of you for your very kind wishes. I appreciate them very much indeed.
And to all 137 of you who sent congratulatory emails yesterday, please accept this as my reply.
Happy Anniversary Ipinions. I am a Caribbean student in the UK and I fell in love with your columns from the first time I read one. You are both entertaining and informative. Keep up the good work.
Congratualtions Anthony.
It is no small feat to keep these blogs going.
Here’s to your continued success.
