Well hardly seems possible but we’re drawing on to the end of January.
The debate in Jacksonville coming *after* the State of the Nation speech and *before* Florida with that big Hispanic contingent in it’s delegation – is a hefty player as Al Gore and George Bush (43) can tell you without blinking – maybe tearing up a little but they’re big boys now.
I’m finally getting the hang of doing things with my desk-top computer… I’ve only had it about a year and a half (L) … by now I would be thinking about a replacement *except* for two things: I don’t have the money -- & 2 -- I don’t want to be having to learn something new about a new machine.
That’s what’s bugged me all along about computer things. You hardly get one to the point where you know what you want to do and how to do it – and next thing it’s time to re-up for another expensive machine with new programs etc. etc.
My view of my memory system is it’s like your “too small” attic or storage room. When you want to put something new in… you’ve got to throw something that’s in there out… or away… or give it to someone who wants it. A garage sale is more work than generally it is worth… but no sense griping about all that.
The night (I’m typing after midnight) draws on apace… when I get to this stage I always make errors – like not *sending* the stuff I’ve prepared for the radio. That’s not helpful for today… or in this case the NEXT day – which it turns out is *already* today… Argh!
Well… enough griping about today… or this week…. See you next week. Have a great weekend!
Cordially, IN HIM

“JUST A MINUTE”
THE PLAY TAKES A SURGICAL TWIST
Just a Minute: Are you good at solving mysteries?
At eight last night four candidates stood on a Jacksonville stage queried by CNN’s white-bearded Wolf Blitzer, and tried to deliver -- if not a knockout punch at least a win by a TKO.
Dr. Ron Paul got the most laugh lines with his short answers and succinct delivery – but he’s not really playing for the grand prize. The win he will carry away will be a slot on the nominating conference program – and keeping his ‘libertarian’ campaign alive.
Sen. Rick Santorum – youngest of the bunch seemed trying hard but lacks the seasoned and courteous gravitas to pull it off. Newt tried his ‘argument with the moderator’ act – but struck out. Thus leaving Mitt Romney having still a steep hill to climb to the National Convention, but finally achieving a degree of the necessary determination and ‘fire in the belly’ observers say he must master. So the battle will probably continue until they return to
Can’t be too soon for me. <> I’m Jack Buttram. (END)
