Shake the Magic 8-Ball and…all signs point to yes! The other day I hoped aloud that the US would, once again, act as a beacon for freedom, and send a message to the rest of the world:  we shall not, as a nation, cave to the demands of the Islamists. And we have not—even if our “tolerant” press and academic elite argue that it is our multicultural duty to do

…To all you moms out there!  Posting will be light today, naturally. In its place?  A fancy lunch, and then maybe a few drinks.  Seems that because I take care of my son and work from home, I’m eligible for certain perks of motherhood—and without all that inconvenient monthly bleeding!  So.  How you like me now, T?

A number of regulars have noted that, as a way to help me finish this fundraiser with a flourish, they’ll match any donations from the left-leaning commenters who post here daily. So far, the sum total they have to meet?  $0.00. I know, I know.  Hardly shocking, is it?  But in the unlikely event anything changes, I’ll let you know.

At any rate, before I head out shopping and to Wash Park, I’d like

—Ooh, sorry.  No can do.  At least, not this week.  Seems the little guy heard me talking about the exciting field of retail POS the other day and got so jazzed that he ran right off and signed himself up for some night courses at Foothills Community College.  He starts this evening.

With my mother-in-law arriving in town in just a few hours, I’ve decided that in lieu of doing a lengthy and substantive post, I’m just going to put up something short.  Like this. That way, I’ll have time to vaccuum up the Cheez-It crumbs, keep you all flush with new pw content, and find myself some pants.
