Rainy Days & Mondays

With apologies to the 2A Roundup, if you've come here looking for the video, I took it down. No one left any comments, and I suspect no one wanted to see it that badly. If you do, you can find it at here at Theo Spark's place.

It has been grey and cloudy all day, and rained steadily for a good portion of the afternoon. The temp is near normal, though, at 62, so no one is complaining much.

Well, maybe a little, but it could be a LOT worse. It could be icy rain with snow in the mountains, like last July. No, thanks.

The media reps are wiping the spittle off their collective chins, with Sarah Palin fading (temporarily) into yesterday's news. I'm sure the frenzied mob insanity will resurface as soon as she does, but for now ... it's kind of nice. Various comments today have been cautiously optimistic that perhaps things will remain a bit more settled, with a new Governor in place.

The manic reporting of all things Sarah was embarrassing and unbecoming a profession that used to be respectable, but it's obvious the so-called "reporters" are going to have to go back to their respective holes & find something to talk about. I'm sure it won't take long.

Edward R. Murrow must be spinning in his grave.

I didn't get to the range over the weekend to play with the new rifle, but I can always go after work during the week; perhaps Wednesday.

There's not much else going on, so I'll stop. Thanks for coming by.
