it’s hard to blog on an iPhone…

…so this is the third open thread of the week. (Just FYI, I’ll be back home Friday afternoon and hope to catch up then.). As before, I am tired and ill-informed. While the latter might qualify me to be an MSM reporter, the two together definitely disqualify me from being a blogger.

I can tell you, though, that if you like to ski, Steamboat Springs, in Colorado, is delightful. I feel a bit decadent being here during a rescession, but we got lucky: a friend gave us room in her timeshare and frequent flier miles paid for half the tickets. The only expense is the skiing itself — and, boy, is that expensive. I didn’t ski as a child because my parents said they couldn’t afford it, and I now understand why.

Thumbs worn out. Must stop. You take over.
