there was a sea change there for the worst.

It hasn't recovered since.


Also, I don't watch TV news that much any longer...it all seems like BS in high gear.

Also, how's Alaska. I hear dry.

Not much rain this summer, but I am enjoying the sunshine.

I think CNN started going bad in the late 90s. I never even see it unless someone posts a clip on DU or some real breaking news is happening on the weekend and msnbc is busy playing Lock up Raw.

you must get a awesome amount of daylight right now.

Sorry about the fires. I hope it doesn't get too bad.

Not so hot here. Below average.

No, not really.

People in Boston are still getting over last winter. Really.

But hey, we broke snow record.

And now that the days are getting shorter I believe that the miasma will return.

Sunlight is great, and I don't want to give up one minute of it.


Best.

If he had been a woman and you called him the "C" word, you would've been banned from DU in perpetuity.
Such are the ways of the world apparently.

I could be wrong, but this seems like something they started special for Obama.
