Category: Open Threads

I’ve been doing chores and am now heading of for some much needed exercise.  Open Thread away!  Suggested topics: Insanity and antisemitism on Wall Street (and other places) Insanity in Europe (which those of us paying attention knew would happen one day) Insanity in the Middle East (I can’t even

My brain is so jumbled (more so than usual), that I haven’t reached the point of coherence that enables me to write things down.  I bet you guys can do better.  Open Thread away!

It’s been all family all the time here, except for time I’ve carved out to get my hair done (and, thank you for saying so, I do indeed look lovely) and to do legal work. I know that it’s a bit late to start an Open Thread, but I figured,

Who needs to blog?  The morning Drudge Report pretty much summarizes it all: I’m going to martial arts to work off my morning-news-based anxiety.  Consider this your open thread.
