Yesterday I co-facilitated a therapy group for former prisoners and ran errands afterwards, so I was not here to reply to comments or return visits. Today looks pretty busy, but I hope to start catching up.

Jig Zone Puzzle:

Today it took me 4:21 To do it, click here. How did you do?

Short Takes:

From Bloomberg: More than $21 million into her campaign for a U.S. Senate seat in Connecticut, Republican Linda McMahon outspent Democrat Richard Blumenthal 16-to-1 through the year’s first half and narrowed his lead to 6 percentage points in a new poll.

This is why we need publicly financed elections.

From LA Times: Smashing the record for the most money ever donated by a candidate in a political election, Republican Meg Whitman has written her gubernatorial campaign a $15-million check that brings her personal stake in the race to $119 million.

This is why we need publicly financed elections.

I hope old Meg loses her shirt.

Bleacthe – It was bad enough when Lady Gaga did it; I don’t want to see any picks of Newt, clothed or otherwise. What a sellout.
