Michael and Friedrich Blowhard beg to differ with Terry Teachout's claim to be "Oldest Known Arts Blogger in Captivity" at age 48. While I gladly defer to the Blowhards' self-effacing claims to seniority, let it be noted that even I beat Terry to age 48, by a full two months. Heck, I was even heard to complain about it just this past October.

Happy Birthday in any case, Terry.
