Or Better Yet, Try to Fix It
We’re back! I hope everyone had a pleasant Independence Day, despite the shenanigans going on in the Capitol. Speaking of such, how about the mess Dear Leader has gotten himself into over this last week? Despite anything his apologists might … Continue reading

Government Showdown
As I write this, on Wednesday afternoon, things on Capitol Hill have gotten a bit testy. (Well, okay, testier than usual.) The White House is refusing to comply with Congressional subpoenas, which is pretty much unheard of. The House is … Continue reading

Not Much Going On
I apologize, folks, but I’ve been absolutely too busy to think much about what to write, this week. I’m in the middle of an inter-office shift in my day job, and at home–well, it’s springtime. It’s the “springtime” stuff that … Continue reading
Learned it in Kindergarten
As I started to talk about last time, I’d like to explore the idea of what, when, and how much to share with others. I don’t think there’s a one-size-fits-all “right” answer to the question; at the end of the … Continue reading

“In like a lion…” A deranged, manic-depressive lion, perhaps. We’ve had days of phenomenal weather, followed by rain, sleet, and snow. Closer to the latter, as I write this. The various “spring” plants are coming up, though, and things are … Continue reading
A Little Taste of Summer
The weather right now is being uncooperative. After a couple of warm days last week, we had an inch and a half of snow on Saturday, followed by low 60’s on Sunday. As I write this on Wednesday evening, we’re … Continue reading
Yeah, About That
Did I really say “no current events”? The problem with that is that they’re so… current. Sometimes, they’re even relevant. The recent U.S. Government shutdown was–well, not surprising. Not eye-opening. Not even an epiphany. More, I guess, of an additional … Continue reading

Almost There
At least, in the Northern Hemisphere. “Almost where?” Well, really, pick your place. (“Hell in a handbasket?” Why, yes…) Fall is also almost here, with all that entails–we had our first delivery of firewood this week, which means that 1) … Continue reading →
