Agreed and agreed. You are right. The local stuff here was discouraging, though. As you said, it was not entirely surprising, but I'm deeply disappointed in how many good people got uprooted (and how many suck people's roots grew deeper still). And I was also responding to some hard core folks in my life who are/were Obama bashing. Still and all, it looks like this will bring us four more years, and hopefully better turnover in the future. I read a nice piece today about how the centrists rather than the "liberals" were the ousted. I'm not sure I entirely agree that it was centrism that got them (because how were they supposed to run against nutjobbers with support), but it is something to consider.

Unrelated - if I knew you were from PA, I forgot. Good stuff! I'm hoping to end up there in the fall, but no idea if that will materialize.

They really do have giant brass balls.

Scrolling up is a good thing. How is life in your world? I hope you are feeling better in all matters not house related, as well as house related.

Glad to hear it! Wishing you continued good.

Thank you muchly, sir. I hope all is well in your world!!

You just gave me a much needed laugh. xoxo

Indeed. Kali may just have your tongue.

Perhaps I should submit a column? Actually, you have gotten me hooked on that strip. It is fabulous. I've actually used it as a teaching tool and shared it with others!

About Lindsay Lohan: is it not completely obvious that the only way that poor sod will get her life together is if people leave her alone? That kid is tragic. The freakshow is alive and well, although under the name of E! entertainment television. My father got out of rehab not too long ago and he said there are so many kids like her who are just lost. One was 23 and in something like his 12th rehab. My heart hurts for folks who suffer so much with that kind of addiction. Bad stuff.

As great as it was and as much of a masterpiece it is, the best film I've seen this year was Io sono l'amore.

Sir, you are a gentleman and a scholar.

I've always loved that song and will throw the cd in my car stereo now and then.

Shooting things would make me feel better

You are writing, and I'm writing too, slowly. Very slowly.

Yeah, I haven't been too active on here in a while. I'm not sure who would hang out at prom with me, besides you. See you IRL, hopefully.

Thanks for the wisdom! You are right. I just need to (and am) let(ting) it all go. Whoosh.

We decided to move, so that will help alot. I am going to go out and do activities I like to do. That will result in meeting people over time. This town just IS transient scholarly folk, so time to move it along.
