First off, Alice was in a bit of a rush this morning – else I’m sure she would not have taken the avoidance tack.  (She was also clearly disturbed by McCain’s snub of Obama – although her interpretation is probably spot on.)  Anyway, here’s her response to my question mark question (lifted from the “Comments”):

“Oh, [...]

I can’t believe that I am doing this … but I feel moved to add the White House website to the links here in the JordanCornblog sidebar.  I feel moved to explore the site, read the blog, check it all out periodically.  What is happening?  As someone who grew up in the sixties and came [...]

Here’s hoping you had a nice holiday … as the sun rises on December 26, 2008.  I thought I’d share a couple of photos that HollyCornblog sent along from Cape May, New Jersey.  Here’s sunrise on the beach (yesterday).  Check out the gulls silhouetted against the waves.
It sounded like it was a gorgeous day for [...]

Power outages here … and running late … so this’ll be quick.
Thank goodness CB sent me a rather amazing (and seasonal) video or there’s be just about nothing here.  But check this out … Bailey the Unknown Reindeer.  (Be prepared to be exhausted watching it.)
Anyone see Rachel Maddow last night?  She was quite eloquent on [...]

I’m thinking that title doesn’t even make sense.  But that aside, it went well today, going back to work.  Nice to get back, actually.  That’s not to say I wouldn’t love a few more hours free each day – or a bit more sleep.  But complaining would be beyond unseemly in the current economic climate, [...]

Thanks to CB — here’s the real deal!  This is the Robert Knight version … and turns out it was 1967.

First and foremost, it’s the 25th anniversary of the New Hampshire Community Loan Fund – an amazing organization that has had a huge impact on the lives of people in NH.  (It is also one of the few investments that hasn’t tanked in recent months … so you might want to think about investing your [...]

Cindy McCain and Laura Bush appeared together at the Republican convention yesterday and offered uplifting fare to the 17 delegates in attendance.  In a surprisingly bold move, Cindy offered the following bit of wardrobe advice:  “This is a time when we take off our Republican hats and put on our American hats.”  Brave and inspiring [...]

It’s “hump day” and I’m heading back to work tomorrow after a LONG vacation.  This morning I’m celebrating the Phillies’ amazing come from behind win over the Mets.  (Can you say first place?)  Seven runs down and they come back and win it in the 13th.  Go Phillies!  That … and the Red Sox pummeled [...]

I’m back from my quick road trip … which was very successful and included a drive through the Delaware Water Gap region – an area I haven’t visited in years. It was quite beautiful – more so than I remembered (from driving through in my childhood). Much of it has been reclaimed as park land [...]

Cincinnati’s own Heather Mitts is recovering well from her last injury, and looks to be on track for an Olympic Roster slot. The recently-turned-30 defender has had some PTSD, according to her hometown paper The Enquirer, as USWNT mates Leslie Osborne and Cat Whitehill have gone down with similar injuries in recent weeks.
While we’re talking [...]

Hmmmm, how about Jim Webb and Obama as the ticket in November? (And I don’t mean Mr. MacArthur Park … although back in the ’70’s I’d have loved the idea … I admit … with eyes slightly downcast.) Anyway, it’s fascinating, this VP dance that we’re all watching now.
I was listening to some very interesting [...]

Wow – lots of hits on JordanCornblog today! Seems like folks are having a hard time getting back into the swing of things at work, huh?  Well, it’s a beautiful Monday and I’m indoors noodling around with Microsoft Frontpage … and looking out at the gorgeous new spring-green leaves.
I’m adding another link to the soccer [...]

Hey – it’s a beautiful morning in New York and I’m relaxing while HollyCornblog and CharlieHopbrew take one very nervous cat and a slightly-less-nervous dog to the vet’s. I’ve been learning all about single hop beers (amazing differences, depending on what hops you use!), and malts and yeasts and dry hopping and how you grow [...]

When I posted that table earlier today (the one I was so proud of because it listed Australia), it raised an interesting question (thanks, CB) that I had been just glossing over in my admitted obsesson with web stats.
