'Blogs Making a Difference'

So there's a headline (not there anymore) on Bourque.org that says something to the effect of 'bloggers are increasingly replacing biased journalists' as a trusted news source. Finding that premise to be rather amusing, I clicked through on the link, only to find that it didn't lead to an article explaining why bloggers are replacing journalists. Rather, it led to a page with Bourque's list of 'Blogs Making a Difference'.

My initial reaction was 'blah, who cares?'. I mean really, does anyone consult this list to find to who the ultra-bloggers are? And do these blogs really Make a Difference? And then I saw it. I couldn't believe my eyes. There in the right-hand column, 18 down, between Rick Mercer and the Moncton-Riverview-Dieppe Blogger:
Oh. My. God. There it is. The Middle Winger. It's official. Your humble blogger is Making a Difference. You wouldn't know it from the number of posts. You wouldn't know it from the number of commenters. But there it is! No less a source than Pierre Bourque himself has declared my blog as a Difference-Maker. Of course this creates a whole new dilemma:

Now that I'm Making a Difference, am I going to have to post on a regular basis?
