I have washed up on the shores of Brooklyn for a minute, and barring a last minute trip to Burning Man, will indeed be around on Labor Day. Let's meet up. (If the weather don't change, you will regret leaving the chilly climes of gopherdom--although I am at present within a stone's throw of the home of my yout' (Fort Greene) I had forgotten why I once made a mighty oath never to be found in NYC between May and October).

Always fun to read you

Maybe not the Repugnants per se, but the teabaggers are capable of a berserker frolic with a potentially dramatic outcome

*Naomi Klein proposes that the deliberate precipitation of crises is part of a strategy for the ongoing hypnosis by dint of which the proletariat is rendered lumpen. No less a sober thinker than Paul Krugman has referenced the hollowing of our public education system as a purposeful undertaking the goal of which is the production of stupid voters.

It appears to be working.

*Parenthetically, what a fox!

Well, I guess the good news is that I am only 90 miles from the border of one of the Big Four!

I still cannot imagine the repubs just turning their backs on Wall Street.

That aint gonna happen.

While they were building their countries up, we USA citizens was dreaming about "Morning in America" and not paying attention to who we were voting for. In the mean time Koch brothers with the help of ALEC and Grover Norquist hired enough of our representatives to represent the very rich that we voted for to do only their bidding. For the life of me I can't figure out how the rich thinks crashing the economy is smart.

I was talking to a missionary couple on the light rail. They were in town for a religious conference, but live in Thailand. He was raving about the cheap cost of living there, and that they have all the trappings of America (KFC, McDs, etc) you could want. My coworker vacationed there recently and said Thailand is practically infested with 7-Elevens. His stories of eating dog at parties was less attractive. He said dog tastes pretty much like dogs smell, but you get used to it.
