Hi Folks…
Don’t be glum – winter will ‘officially be over next month – which begins next week… The signs of Spring are coming… the daffodils are putting on an early cold weather show for us to let us know Spring really is around the corner. We’ve had a mild but dry winter… and while there’s a still a relative shortage of water – there’s no shortage of political hot air in the offing. Why I wouldn’t be surprised to have someone formally announce their presidential aspirations before Easter. Really –yes.. really – stranger things have happened in this period of reported global warming.
Someone’s even said Al Gore has been having new suits made for possible campaign appearances. With that Nobel prize under his ample belt he should be ready for almost anything.
That’s what they’re saying over at EARL ‘N’ LESTER’S BAIT SHOP AND SUSHI BAR where everyone’s waitin’ fer you ta' jine them. The natives are getting restless… Having been accustomed to continuous campaigning for the past two years… and having blogs galore – plus the icing on the electronics communications cake of Twerps and Twittering (remember only 184 characters permitted) info is flying back and forth faster than the Kremlin can communicate with Khadafy.
The world is too much with us late and soon – says William Wordsworth – And so it seems all the “chattering classes” – according to the Hon. Senator Schumer – Senior Senator and notable limelight seeker from New Yawk.

Mencken – Baltimore Editor used to call those of the ‘middle class.’
Frankly, I’m growing more and more tired and impatient with the omniscient attitude of “Now that we are in the majority your duty is simply to listen and to obey your betters.” It was precisely that attitude that brought the greatest Army and Navy in the world of 1776 crashing down around its ankles in an eight year war they thought would be wrapped up in a matter of months.
Well… that’s what forums (Forii just doesn’t look right … what is the plural of forum?) are for – to have debates and express opinions. But opinions are of no value unless they have a nexus with fact and reality. I feel we’re floating in an ‘unreal’ bubble of euphoria surrounding the current White House resident. He had a hand in generating it – but a large portion of
May the Lord bless us all –
Cordially, IN HIM
