Sorry about the non-existent blogging the last couple days. There’s a few things I need to catch up on in the typical lull between Christmas and New Year’s. I may or may not expand on them as I see fit.
- Item #1 on the catchup – gift cards. I love them, and apparently so does Rep. Fred Kessler (D-Milwaukee). Only thing is, he wants 80% of the value of any gift card that is more than 1 year old to go to the state. Especially illuminating is Red Fred’s interview with the Early Spinners over on WISN. I’ll put this in a language he (and the Spotted Chris) can understand – КраÑное Fred, идет к аду! For the rest of you, that’s Russian for “Red Fred, go to Hell!” (or at least that’s what AltaVista’s BabelFish tells me).
- Speaking of Freds, a much better Fred, fresh off his victory over me in the Cheddarsphere championship game, is running for alderman down in Racine. May you have as much success there as you did against me.
- So Gerald Ford was one of the early cut-and-runners, at least according to Bob Woodward. IF that’s true (I’d take the word of a used car salesman over the one of a presstitute), I wouldn’t be shocked; after all, Ford presided over the final defeat of South Vietnam.
