How does one become an "official" blogger for the Dixie Chicks?

It's a nihil obstat® stack thus far.

You can find lots of information about this contestant and his two years on the road with the Dixie Chicks as their "embedded blogger," which he started immediately after he got married. He had never met any of the Dixie Chicks at the time. I haven't yet seen any explanation of how he got the gig. Here's a place to start, if you're interested:

Here's the main blog with a final entry on 1/2/2008:

One bad trivia omen can be seen in photo #2. He refers to $20 bills as depicting Alexander Hamilton.

On today's show, his PAF was a 5-time Jeopardy winner named Tom. Jeopardy fanatics probably know who that is.

There have been a few 5-time J! winners named Tom over the years: Tom Halpern, Tom Nichols, and Tom Nosek.

(EDIT: Tom Walsh was a 7-time winner.)

so far so good

I'm bringing my question database up to date. Choice D on the second question should read "Baseball cap".
