Particularly apt for a return to blogging after what’s been in some ways a rough couple of weeks:  one favorite blogger who made me want to weep, followed immediately by another who made me laugh out loud.

Condolences to Dave at LG&M on the loss of a family member.  Props to Tbogg for finding the humor in the unfunniest of spectacles.  And thanks to both of you for blogging in the first place; in the unrelenting catastrophe that is life during the Bush maladministration, you guys are two reasons to get up in the morning.
