Blowed Up Real Good

Pete:

There are days when it is difficult in the extreme to find the motivation to park in front of this machine and begin my daily sojourn into the belly of the political beast. There was a time a couple years ago when there was a lot of discussion and back and forth on this blog but I suspect most have gotten bored or just lost interest and moved on. Many days it is only through a sense of indebtedness to what this has meant to me keeps me doing it.

Well, sheesh! What a curmudgeon.

I know I've been a lot less active on here, for many reasons, including that I keep falling behind and then don't want to comment too often on days-old posts. Others may have cut back on commenting likewise for "offine life" distractions -- we have just passed that Thanksgiving-to-New Years' busy season, with special added election. Anyway, Pete, don't count the comments & presume you're not being read and appreciated. I look forward to reading every post, news or humor, one-item post or your broader reports.

When we're tired of hearing from you, we'll let you know in no uncertain terms, awrite? :D

That said, I appreciate your collecting these items so I can get the quick gist, and have the option to view the videos if I want to!

Might as well stick this here: Once upon a time there was an excellent and very silly ensemble comedy show out of Canada. Here's an example:
