Ah, I see the ground is covered with white stuff this morning. Must be April in Syracuse. The snow’s not supposed to stick around, though. They say a high of 50 today, and, since tomorrow is Monday, it’s supposed to be in the 70s. Yesterday was pretty chilly as I was out trying to get some fencing done and eventually got caught in a downpour. Now I’ve got a bit of a cough and a sore throat (plus I’m kind of sore from all the bending and pounding and stuff).
What with all the “threats” from North Korea, you folks on the West Coast have been getting all the attention lately. Not for long, though, as our esteemed Republican legislators have decided that Iran is now (or soon will be) a threat to hit the East Coast. Although the DOD doesn’t think it’s necessary, they’re pushing to spend $3.6 billion to build a missile defense system east of the Mississippi. This is what’s known as being fiscally conservative, I guess.
Well, what the hell. We could use the jobs.
Forget Anthony Weiner (too soon?). Let’s rehabilitate Elliot Spitzer and get him into some meaningful place stat. Sometimes I wish Dems had no sense of shame like the repug diaper donners, trail hikers, foot tappers, pube obsessors and the rest.
I am watching the ‘new’ UP w/ Steve Kornacki and there is no drop off in my mind. I won’t say it may even be better but having Chris Hayes on all week and this on the weekends is a definite improvement.
I agree. Kornacki does a great job. Having Hayes 5 nights a week is quite a treat, too. Now I have to hope that MSNBC doesn’t find its own Danny Goldberg to screw things up.
:nod:
If you missed it, Marc has reposted his Jonathan Winters episode on WTF.
Got the taxes done with a hitch or two. I was a little distracted by the bombings and trying to find some old and dear friends in Boston who do marathons. Finally I reached them a while ago. I feel badly for everyone who will not be so lucky.
🙁 :gate:
