I've finally gotten around to using the static content system I created a while back to create a link to Ventura County News Sources.
The primary impetus was a desire to move my links online, but I was further spurred in that direction because of a blurb on L.A. Observed about La Conchita which pointed to an article in the Ventura County Reporter, which I'd never heard of (despite it's long term presence).
Unfortunately, the Ventura County Reporter doesn't use long lived links. I'm sure they've had many great articles, but what caught my eye was One soldier’s story. Patrick Campbell is a young man from Camarillo, a Cal grad who dropped out of law school (and gave up a position on the staff of Senator Patrick Leahy) to join the Army as a medic. His (mis)adventures are chronicled on his site: Campbell Watch and (and his mailing list) and were summarized in the Reporter article.
If you have additions or corrections to the list, please let me know.

P.S. What is your story Dave?
Posted by: Patrick Campbell on January 24, 2005 11:18 PM commLinkThanks for dropping by Patrick, I'm glad that you appreciate the link. I appreciate your insights and service.
As for my story, every time I get going I wind up with thirty boring pages before I lose my virginity. It's something I want to describe for my children (and myself), but I've only got lots and lots of fragments.
