Half A Decade Of Monkeyfishing

James Taranto is celebrating the fifth anniversary of his “Best of the Web” column with the first of a three-part history, which runs from the column’s debut in 2000, through 9/11. Taranto’s column isn’t really a blog per se, but it definitely serves as a great guide to the events of the day–with (as a colleague of Taranto’s put it) “a whole sui generis arch style thing” going on, to boot.
