I was going to make the title Chowhound Sells Out, but that would be more than tendentious. I would have placed a bet that eGullet would have been the first to get snapped up - but the "big" announcement is here.

If we believe absurdities, we shall commit atrocities. (Voltaire)
One is often told that it is very wrong to attack religion because religion makes men virtuous. So I am told; I have not noticed it. (Bertrand Russell)
Believing there is no god gives me more room for belief in family, people, love, truth, beauty, sex, Jell-O, and all things I can prove and that make this life the best life I will ever have. (Penn Jillette)

Potential buyers have expressed special interest in posts related to The Sea Grill.
I think that is the danger of keeping a blog: you exaggerate everything
