Their blog doesn't have comments! I think that's a big selling point for you. They could learn about comments from you! Comments are so progressive and democratic. I'm sure that Katrina Van Editor would have them if she knew about them.
P. S. Sorry you missed lunch with Michael Moore (still he knows already about Iraq War being WRONG [and SO much more]}
Also, they could use Yggy trick -- put kid's picture on blog. People love children (other people's).
P.P.S. My yoga teacher says hi and thank you (BIG IWWWB fan).
Now I'm off to the chiropractor (always need chiropractor after yoga [and vice versa])

This could really be IT! It seems tailor-made and your application mail was terrific. Also, your "p.s" shows u mean business and also how natural it would be for you two to tie the knot. I'm really excited!!
And even if you (somehow) don't get it, you still have the satisfaction of knowing you're the best one for the job!
Crossing fingers,

p.s:
Do you want us to provide them with references?
I imagine that if they find themselves receiving a few emails from your readers, they might be surprised and impressed!!!
You can also provide us with some specific catchwords and phrases to (subtly) weave into our mails.

I am sure that iraqwarwrong has done an excellent job of demonstrating his qualifications. I am sure references will be less than necessary.
