God I Hate Snowmobile Users

This notion that humans on snowmobiles are more important than lynx is just infuriating. & yes, it's true that I have boycotted ice fishing for several years now because Mrs. coldH2Owi has cruelly refused to add a snowmobile or 4-wheeler to our list of insurable possessions.


In Deference To The Young Of The Drummond School

No baloney sausage, Dick Tracey. If these right-wingers would just stop & think for a moment, wouldn't they suddenly understand what freedom really meant?  I understand "right-wingers" & "think" are not compatible, but come on.

Good

The state of Maine does the right thing. Now it's time for Maine's two ReThug senators to switch to the Democratic Party. Hopefully, the next election will toss one out if she doesn't change.


The Corps Of Engineers Not Telling The Complete Truth?

I'm schocked, I tell you. Aw hell, who needs peer review?

Blind Justice?

Not so much.

AG: Justice Department Committed to “Core GOP Principles”

5/5/09 - As the only major state office who is Republican, Attorney General JB Van Hollen says the justice department remains committed to "core Republican principles." He points to areas like fiscal responsibility, which includes going after people and businesses that rip off the government. He says they've collected tens of millions of dollars more in fraudulent restitution each year than his predecessor. Van Hollen says the DOJ was the only state agency during his first two-year budget to return money – 1-point-2 million dollars. The AG says it's due in large part to productivity and efficiency at the state crime lab, which is about to be the first in over 20 years to rid the backlog of DNA evidence.

Sorry, Pete

Pete Seeger is 90 years old. Yesterday was his birthday. Back when I was a sallow youth, I went to see Pete Seeger at the Ag Hall. It was, of course, wonderful. & we did hear this song:



Pete Seeger: Waist Deep in the Big Muddy


I love this song & it's meant a lot to me over the years.  & Pete Seeger's 90 years old,wow - I hope you had a great one you radical, you.  He would be a great role model for anybody.


Bad Plants

Two more reasons why non-indigenous plants are so successful. & silver maples are the suckiest of the invaders.

Souter Goes Home To New Hampshire

Justice Souter is retiring. He was a good guy & apparently a smart guy as well, since he is retiring at a relatively young age. I am so glad that he actually did the right thing(s) while serving as a Supreme Court Justice. It was also a lot of fun watching him poke a stick in the Bu$hCo family's eye over & over again. He'll be missed.

1st

After all these years we get Carol Ann Duffy.
