I hope you will forgive me but I am going against my better judgment today and sound like one of those inch-wide, inch-deep political pundits and blah-blah bloggers who can be more boring than a tree stump. If I don't provide some meaningful commentary on national events from time-to-time, I am afraid the editors will think I am not relevant and will replace me with some pseudo-know-it-all, like that guy on MSNBC who looks like the Pillsbury Doughboy and whose fanny Zell Miller once threatened to whip on national television, shocking the 11 people who regularly watch MSNBC. I'm walking a fine line here. The editors are already cranky with me because I don't know where commas go.
Some observations on the national scene and then its back to broccoli
