The long silence is about sadness. It’s not personal sadness. I kind of live in paradise. But watching the US political system go to ruin is depressing.
I started writing a post talking about the Administration’s plans for education — which look shrubbier than the Shrub’s — and found out when I was looking up links that it’s even worse than it sounded at first.
There’s another post in the, ahem, pipeline about the BP oil spill. Actually, no, not about the oil spill. About how the spill will be used to shill for nuclear energy the minute the lobbyists think they can get away with it. They’ll tell us it’s our only choice. We have a polluting disaster here, so the solution is obvious. Put all your money on another polluting disaster!
It goes on and on. So my heart fails me, and I go off into my own world and write instead about how government should be [1].

Q, (Hey, if ya watched Star Trek…it’s a compliment of sorts)
Well, glad I dropped by as I had been thinking about what you might be thinking about the BP spill? Ah, sorry your Ole ticker is feeling sad…Cyber Daisy for ya! Do post the post in the pipeline, as I am anxiously waiting to see what you are thinking on the matter…as the oil continues to gush out.
I might send you my thoughts about their lack of contingency plans or a plan of correction for that matter via e-mail latter.
Smile, people miss you… 😉 TGW wimmin folks said to wink at people but I don’t know why exactly. 😆
