Today is a football day, but I’m up to date with comment and have some good material for you. despite this lingering illness.  Unlike most of America, we’re having a warm spell.  It’s 72° in my apartment even though they have not turned on heat in the building since Wednesday night.  I have a lot of volunteer work to catch up, but it won’t be today.  I just don’t have the strength for it.

Jig Zone Puzzle:

Today it took me 3:53 (average 4:22).  To do it, click here.  How did you do?

Short Takes:

From News Hounds: Here’s Sean Hannity with Republican foreign policy.

Iraq should thank us for destroying their country?  We should invade Kuwait?  I wish he’d stop bogarting whatever he’s smoking!

From ABC: A Walgreens in Tuscon, Ariz. turned over to police racy photos of gunman Jared Loughner with a Glock and a G-string that were taken to the store to be developed the night before the shooting rampage that left six people dead and 14 wounded.

Who else do we know that think guns are sexy?

From Politico: Members of the Republican National Committee sent a clear message Friday to the rest of the GOP when tahey elected Reince Priebus as their new chairman: There’s at least one corner of the Republican Party that’s beyond House Speaker John Boehner’s reach.

:I’m going to miss Michael Steele.  We’re losing a great source of entertainment now that Republicans no longer feel the need to say, “We have one too.”

Get ready for Congress next week!

  1. My comment seems to have disappeared…or I screwed up in posting it. Take you pick.

    Anyway, {drum roll} my time 3.52. I am now 4 out of 15 and on a streak of one.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
