Been awhile! I think I’m heading toward a not-every-day schedule here – or at least, let’s say a less predictable schedule. We’ll see how it goes.
In the meantime, life goes on, the days lengthen, snow falls and melts, and who should be reappearing on the landscape but Mitt Romney! He’s starting to make the rounds, [...]
I must be doing something right, because Bob Sheridan stopped by yesterday evening, visited an ancient post, and wrote:
Sorry, but I found Wiff-n-Proof easy. I wish I could find a set now days. It would be fun showing liberal prigs what constitutes real intelligence.
Yikes … I can’t wait ’til he gets into the Sarah Palin [...]
Today I was sad to see a Google Alert re. the Breakers indicating that Jen Nobis is out for the season (torn ACL). Sounds like she had been working her butt off in the off-season, which makes this all the sadder. She had 2 goals in 11 games for a generally lackluster Breakers’ offense … [...]
First, from Alice, this absolutely amazing snippet from the UK featuring Susan Boyle … definitely worth the time it takes to watch!
I’m not up on the Idol phenomenon at all … but this? I love it!
Then this from Sarah Palin – who’s kind of the opposite of Susan Boyle, if you think about it. But [...]
It feels like Alaska here in NH this morning — and so my thoughts turn naturally to Sarah Palin. She is a busy gal, you betcha.
Everyone’s read, if they follow her at all, about how she is blaming the press for the public’s perceptions of her … and stepping up to protect her family from [...]
How refreshing to write a headline focused on the letter P and not have Sarah Palin come to mind (except as an after thought, just now — like a toothache remembered).
So these are heady, miraculous times. The Hudson River miracle jet has been fished out of the water and Obama is in DC and will [...]

This is for real. Starting in 1966 on WPIX in New York City there has been a long running broadcast of a Yule Log burning.
How relaxing … and strange.
In contrast, check out the outtakes from Sarah Palin’s notorious turkey slaughter interview. As bad as it was, there was an awful lot that got cut out!

Caroline Kennedy is beginning to articulate some of her positions, as noted in this article from the NY Times. While I like what I know of her, and am in agreement with her stated positions, I do find this run somewhat puzzling after a lifetime of pretty adamant privacy. She comes across as much more [...]
First and foremost, you need to know that Joe the Plumber was appalled by McCain, but kinda almost felt a “presence” when he was around Ms. Sarah Palin. Okay, so call me prurient or nasty or sick, or whatever, but my first question to Joe Wurzelbacher would be, “And exactly where do you feel that [...]

This time last week I was waking up at HollyCornblog’s and getting ready to drive east over Hogback to NH. This morning I am shivering at my window as a bright orange sun rises (but doesn’t yet share any warmth with this chilly planet). It’s Ethan Frome weather, for sure … gotta get me some [...]
Before I head out to the lake this morning, a fond review of some favorite spots to visit … just to see what’s up one more time. (You’d think I was going off for a month, wouldn’t ya? The way I go on and on and on …)
Oh, and before I forget, we watched a [...]
Obama is leaving the trail, as I’m sure you’ve all read by now, to be with his seriously ill grandmother in Hawaii. His sense of proportion is admirable, and I wish him and his family well.
On a more upbeat note — my e-mail brought me this great piece from the NY Times this morning — [...]

This morning a friend sent me this excellent “memo” that has been making the rounds on the Internet. You’ll have to check it out!
Dear Red States,
We’re ticked off at the way you’ve treated California , and we’ve decided we’re leaving. We intend to form our own country, and we’re taking the other Blue States with [...]

It was a good run, Red Sox … but now it’s up to the Phillies to take the devil out of those Rays, I guess. A rested Philadelphia team meets the Rays in Florida for game 1 on Wednesday night. Here’s hoping for either a good, exciting, long Series or (my personal favorite) a four [...]
