President Obama doesn’t seem to be facing the angry mobs at his town hall meetings. This, according to the Washington Post is mighty bad news – for Obama. I’m sure that if he was being screamed at by the raving lunatics, that would be equally bad news for him. This is what we call “balance.”
Lanny Davis (sounds like a golfer’s name, doesn’t it?) says everybody should stop being so mean to Whole Foods. Geez, Lanny, it was only one post.
Last night, Bill Maher said that, because of all the energy and carbon emissions from raising livestock, it was more ecologically friendly to eat a salad in a Hummer, than a cheeseburger in a Prius. I’d say it’s even better to get a hummer in a golf cart.
Well, I better get myself motivated to attack the kitchen.
Problem is, after a hummer in a golf cart, I’d want to eat a cheeseburger.
Wait… IS that a problem?
Just remember to have lots of napkins.

Here is what a friend had to say about Jim Dickinson’s passing. Hope you can read it.
Ugh! I finally broke down and bought a new laptop. Nothing exciting. Just a reasonably cheap HP. Really, I don’t do a lot with the computer…a bit of word processing, email and blog reading. But, the old one is 6 years old, slower by the day and getting as quirky as I am.
First thing I tried to do was download Norton. Obviously I didn’t so so well because it keeps telling me that it has completed the download and has found an older Norton version which it is deleting and wold I please restart the damn thing to make installation complete.
Thank goodness I have a daughter who, in exchange for proofing her papers provides computer services.
I am lucky to live somewhere that I have lots of great food options. Just like Starbucks brought some decent coffee to many places where before you could see the bottom of the cup through a full cuppa joe, Whole Foods has brought some better food options to places who had few alternatives. They have driven other stores to up their game. They also have employed lots of great folks who they try to act like they treat well. I won’t shop there because they are anti-union, overpriced, and now this thing.
