My blog titles are really great draws for readers, aint they? This has actually been a dreary day--overcast and windy and drizzly. The local weatherman on TV says we will get rain all week.
Some doofus in eastern Iowa shot all five members of his family over the weekend, but he was picked up in Quincy Illinois this morning. The Des Moines Marathon was held today and screwed up traffic all over the north half of town all morning and half the afternoon. I spent a lot of the day at home. I should be inspired by the idea of a mob of runners fit enough to do the big run, but my leg and back have been sore all weekend and so I have been snitty at anyone doing anything. Whine and whine. Clinton was quietly slipped into town last night to speak at the big Democrat banquet held at the local auditorium. I do not like the guy at all, so I was not thirsting for him to be just a few blocks from my hootch, and the Fox News shows all this morning were full of Dems, including Kerry, griping that W should have had more talks with Dear Leader Kim. They never explained what you talk about to convince KJIl not to build a nuke. I have a thought that no pundits or American "leaders" have much idea of Korean history or culture. Maybe a reading of how the Panmunjom talks were done in '53 would be helpful for how to talk to Koreans.
Back to work in the morning, as usual. I would like to retire, but need to keep cash coming in to live on, so I do not end up living in a tent on the riverbank. Lots of things I would like to do if I could retire, but need money for even these dream projects.
Including the family shot in Bonaparte, ten people were murdered in Iowa this weekend, most in little farm towns. One guy in Des Moines was stabbed to death.
With all this happy stuff on this blog tonight, I am going to depart now. You all find some happiness, and I will try to find some too. Di di mau!
