Double standard

I don't get it.

HP's CEO and/or other members of the board of directors could face charges related to spying.

But George Bush has impunity to spy on all of us?

I call bullsh*t.

Yeah, you gotta wonder. I was all hepped on HP because I saw a lot of very sensible improvements and thought, it's all those women they have there! But no, that all seems to have blown up and I am once again reminded that males don't have the corner on stupid.

BTW, I have started a blog meself, it is by way of being a test-bed so we can figger out how the durn things work. Den (he is, among other things, Mr. Hotflash) wants to help the candidate in MI-10, Robert Dennison, who has no campaign to speak of that we can see. Doubt if anything will come of it, but it would be so good to see the back of Candace Miller, so to speak.

And I have taken the liberty of linking to Rayne Today, if that is not OK I will de-link.

I am at "www.hotflash-hotflash.blogspot.com" www.hotflash-hotflash.blogspot.com, pls drop in if you have a mind. The place is a bit barren still, haven't decorated much yet. I love your little weatherpixie!

yours truly,

I'm going to try to document them here, a kind of not-so-secret decoder ring. If there's something you'd like to see added, leave me a comment and I'll cover it here. NOTE: in the event of a server crash at FireDogLake.com, check Windcatpond for announcements, as well as DailyKos for alternative live blogging posts. Complete list of FireDogLake's Libby trial live blog and related posts her e.

The quality of mercy

The long goodbye has been longer than we ever thought it would be; instead of days or weeks, it's now been over a year since my mother-in-law was admitted to a nursing home. In hindsight it was naive to think that the suffering would be so short in duration. It was also not apparent at the time that the nursing home into which she'd first been admitted was integral to the condition she was in when I first wrote about her long goodbye .

A passing thought

It's been awfully quiet here in this new blog. I miss my Salon peeps stopping by whenever I posted in my old blog. Had a passing thought, though, while contemplating this new-found quietude: maybe the trolls won't find me here. [Sigh] There are tradeoffs for everything.
