Yesterday I replied to the outstanding comments after I returned home and set up the CPAP machine. I hope to return visits today, bit it’s iffy. I have work to do in preparation for a board meeting tomorrow. In addition, using the CPAP machine did not go well. Instead of my normal 4-6 hours on my early sleep shift, I got just over one.

From Deseret News: Attorney Mike Lee appears to have defeated businessman Tim Bridgewater in the Utah GOP Senate primary.
"It looks like we’re not going to pull it off," Bridgewater said shortly before 11 p.m. He said he’s run a good campaign and could hold his head up.
"We fought passionately," he said, adding he had called Lee and conceded the race.
Does anyone have the wacky-doodle-d0 on this Teabagger?
From Common Dreams: Louisiana – In the largest citizen enforcement action ever taken under the Clean Water Act, the Center for Biological Diversity is suing BP and Transocean Ltd., for illegally spilling more than 100 million gallons of oil and other pollutants into the Gulf of Mexico. The suit was filed Friday in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana…
…If the spill continues through August 1, 2010, BP’s liability will be approximately $19 billion.
And this is over and above the $20 billion Obama got. 🙂
From Politico.com: A new 527 group conceived by veteran GOP hands Karl Rove and Ed Gillespie and launched this year with predictions that it would raise $52 million to support Republican candidates has thus far failed to live up to the fundraising hype.
The group, American Crossroads, raised only $200 last month, according to a report it filed Monday with the Internal Revenue Service, bringing its total raised since launching in March to a little more than $1.25 million.
I’d like nothing better than to see Turd Blossom fall flat on his heinous face.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
You consistently beat me by at least 50 – 60 seconds, but I am getting better.
Hang in there, Jerry. I’ve been doing these for almost ten years now. The only newbie at it that beats me more often than not is Otis.
Time to take some more shorts on BP before it goes to $0.
Yeah, I do love when Turd Blossom falls on his face too.
Great cartoon.
I just hope BP doesn’t take it in the shorts… yours.
