This is my blog-away-from-blog, as it were, as I am interning at Townhall.com this summer. I also blog at
Jokers to the Right, and will continue to use both during my stay here. I haven't decided if there will be any content division between here and JttR, though I will strive to keep cross-posting to a minimum.
It seems I cannot help but express my love for music when deciding on naming blogs. This blog's title is directly lifted from the title of the 1980 release by prog-rock trio Rush,
Permanent Waves. However, for me it is also an oblique reference to Russell Kirk's concept of the Permanent Things. My recent exposure to Kirk has deepened my understanding of what it means to be conservative, and I hope this blog reflects that.
