No one provokes me with impunity

If this is the law of the land...why in a republic (little r) and as republicans, do we allow mere POLITICIANS to the right to use a "title of office" for the rest of their lives as if it were de facto a patent of nobility. Because, as republicans, this should NOT be the case...just saying...

Blogger Assistance Needed...

Zilla of the Resistance needs help. I hope that you can help her. Having been on the receiving end of someone else's generosity, I hope that you, out there in the interwebs, will hit her tip jar as hard as you can.

Concussion

On Monday morning, at work, I was accidentally bashed in the head...and suffered a  fairly serious concussion.  I was litterally "knocked silly."  It took about 10 minutes to figure just what happened.  Since then, I've been sitting at home with some fairly serious problems...a high grade migrain (8-9 out 10 on the pain scale) and issues with connecting coherent thoughts.

It's been more than 30 years since I've had a concussion injury, and it's been daunting to say the least.  Keeping thoughts running has been difficult to say the least.  I hope to be back blogging more in the next few days.

Blog Hiatus...

I'm very sorry that I've not posted anything in 2 weeks.  I've been rather down lately. Mostly, I've been watching what's going on in Washington, and trying to keep the top of my head from  exploding.  I'll have something posted on the bullshit debt ceiling deals tonight.
