My fingers have hardly recovered, so until tomorrow,  ‘Love, Luck, and Lollipops.’

I have serious editing and writing to do tonight on Love and Loyalty so I may not get to my Sunday Night Movie feature until tomorrow.

I fully support the rights to peoples across the world to overthrow their dictators and live in freedom. I hope that the events from Tunsia and Egypt are the pebbles at the start of a landslide.

I;’ve heard commenters here in the US framing this both as indicative of the success and failure of Bush 41 policies. I will not sully the courage of democratic protesters by suggesting that every event in the world is about our liberal/conservative squabbles.

Recovering nicely from my time in the dentist’s chair. (It was safe.) Planning on Board and Card gaming tonight for friends.

the less about today the better

I was feeling quite poorly yesterday. A nasty headache and really I just retreated to my bedroom and napped the afternoon away trying to lose the pain.

(That didn’t work.)

Today is better, but not by much.

For all my friends, and occasional readers, if you are of a Christian belief, Merry Christmas, and for everyone else, Happy Holidays.

I would not have cried a river of tears f the tax rates had gone back to the level that they were at during the 90s, not am I going to get mad if the tax rates remain where they have been for the last ten years.

My personal preference is a flat tax, the same percentage on all persons and all sources of income. Anything else is by definition treat people unequally and that I detest.

Still we have seen what happen when the republicans are faced with a choise of raising taxes on the upper brackets or spending money that they do not have to keep those taxes at the current level. They spend money that they do not have.

Fiscally responsible my eye.
