Vodkapundit

Vodkapundit and the Weblog of Tomorrow, is a weblog created by Stephen Green on January 10, 2002. Green, self described as a "gourmand, sybarite, and raconteur," operates a blog focuses on issues of politics, food, adult beverages, Green's own hobbies and personal pursuits, and general culture. Green, a libertarian, credits Ayn Rand as one of his inspirations. Green’s blog is one of the more widely-read political journals on the Internet, receiving thousands of visits daily from readers around the world. James Lileks has commented that Green has "mordant wit and stylish cynicism." Green and Vodkapundit are part of Pajamas Media. Green lives in Colorado Springs with his wife, Melissa, and their son.
On December 16, 2006 Mr. Green reported that he had been diagnosed with hyperthyroid condition that caused him to severely lose weight and to suspend the frequency of his blogging. That condition is being treated.
Drunkblogging
One of Green's signature blogging styles is to live blog a political event--such as a debate--while consuming a large number of vodka martinis. It has not yet been determined whether the vodka supposedly lends insight to Green's writing, or whether there is, instead, an element of machismo involved: "how drunk can I get and sort-of cover this event, semi-coherently?"
