Ah…Valentine’s Day. A day for sweethearts to express their love for one another. Sadly, like Christmas, this holiday has been so over-commercialized that too many of us feel like we have to meet some pretty high expectations to come out of this day unscathed. I have never expected much from SSG Dizzy, except for the usual flowers (red and white…our first date/wedding colors) and chocolates (it feeds my addiction). I frown on expensive gifts like jewelry and the like...
Ooh…look at the calendar. No. Not at Abe Lincoln’s Birthday! Valentine’s Day is two days away. I certainly hope you already pre-ordered those flowers for your special someone. And, trust me, today is the last day for you to get the best chocolate and not the slim pickin’s you can get on the clearance rack at your local drugstore. Besides, with the recession set to hit hard and very soon, this V-Day may be your last chance to go...
Yeah. Get your butt up! It’s Monday. I’ll wait right here while you go get your morning cuppa… Hurry up, now. I don’t want you to be late for Uncle Jay’s lesson for today: Uncle Jay Explains the News – February 11, 2008 No real predictions in today’s Ten Post Round-Up. I mean, how hard is it to predict that some colossal nonsense will come out of the mouth of some representative of GWB, or even the man, himself?...
In my Late Night Reads last night, I posted a link to Taylor Marsh’s post on David Shuster’s contemptable sexist remarks made about Chelsea Clinton. The Clinton campaign hit back hard today: Asked about Shuster’s “pimp” comment, Wolfson denounced the comment as “disgusting” and “beneath contempt,” adding: “It’s the kind of thing that should never be said on a national news network.” Then Wolsfon added: “You have to question whether or not there is a pattern here on the...
(If you are still undecided today then here’s a thought: If you want ‘change’, and we all do, then you have to have a change agent that knows the system and has the contacts to create that change. Perhaps my thoughts as I did a 180 degree turn to support Hillary Clinton will be helpful.) So how did I come to a momentous change 180 degree change? Since I am grounded in Practical Politics, my first concern in any...
Ah, Super Tuesday. The talking heads will be all atwitter watching the polls in 22 states and waiting to see which Democrat/Republican comes out on top at the end of today’s primary bonanza. There will be a news blackout in this house (as always) until after 10pm. I can’t stand play-by-plays, so watching the talking heads hold their breath and trying to “predict” who’s going to get what state is about as interesting as watching paint dry. Or maybe...
