Blogging to resume in a couple of hours

Busy, busy morning, followed by a busy mid-afternoon, to be followed by a sort of busy late afternoon — and that late afternoon is when I’ll resume blogging with a comprehensive unloading of all the stuff swirling in my brain.  Until then, keep coming at me with your comments about manly men and others.  It’s a fascinating discussion.  I’ll just throw in two other things:  (1)  the movie 300, which is about Spartans, the ultimate manly men, has been an over-the-top hit; and (2) the military officer who is in trouble for saying he thinks homosexuality is immoral is a Marine.
