    Welcome back. Think of loss of internet as enforced reflection opportunity, works for me better than seeing my life as dependent on energy I don’t produce.

    Happy planting, here in NW PA have just done that, and I brought four o’clock seeds which we’ll watch to see how they like it here.

    Visiting my Kid, who works as a govie, and really is happy at the change in attitude and abilities of people in the Obama admin., it was hard working with the frat boys before.

    Wish I were. These are the men in dresses and red beanies who want to tell us all about having babies.

    Oil transplants sound like cosmetology of the future, anyway.

    Giddy is what I get watching the de-factualization of our government. Realized visiting D.C. that I no longer see the capitol as beautiful, I see it as cracked and listing to the right, going under.

    As Pakistan collects the big bucks as our ally, he’s not supposed to be an enemy spy, and the shocker is that they are totally betraying their own line about being the loyal ally by this prosecution.

    New pedophilia standard under review; ‘A senior church official on Thursday defended his response to a child abuse victim who was told that a predator priest could not be punished because he had sex with women too and therefore was “not a pure pedophile.”‘

    Not sure we actually know what happened to those coins that got spilt. Betcha the priests scurried about scooping them up before the paeons could get a hand on them.

    Thanks, SD. Nationalizing the bank means making it impossible to use depositors’ money for proprietary profit and that’s the only way to keep depositors from pulling out their funds.

    ‘tribe to which they want to belong’

    Wanting to belong really assumes that you choose that tribe, and in my experience you don’t get a choice, you have to struggle to be part of what you were thrown into

    Sorry that happened, and it’s a shame that healthy and solid ideas aren’t entertaining enough even for very bright people as they get older. The effect of listening to a line of crap struck me when my son in all seriousness repeated to me something he’d picked up from winger friends, that L.A. pollution was due to wood smoke and restaurant grease, not fossil fuel fumes. So I searched out some facts. Did you know L.A. has about 12 days of winter when wood is burned in fireplaces? Amazing what folks swallow.

    You’ve seen the KochInc.’s? $$ produce dulling of the normal senses.

    Taxes? What is this trash talk? Endow a chair in economic war for the walled community at U.MO., more likely.

    Ideology or cult? Rush shows absolutely no signs of actually practicing the wingnut ideals other than the part about getting filthy rich at all cost.

    Darwin’s findings are slightly different. Self-correcting nature just isn’t very fast.

    Monumental proportions being honored without regard to merit, maybe it’s a new sensitivity program.

    Thumbnail A lot of you know I was offline last weekend because I had a great chance to go visit the American Native museum the Smithsonian has located on the Mall in Washington, D.C.   Most of you also know I’m an archaeology nut/addict/enthusiast.  My heritage is fascinating to me, and I adopt all the heritage [...]
