that drecky 'Brother's Grimm' ...which it is.

[although mainly just really unersious fun]

And came into the next room to have the BBC announce his passing.

And I missed him, unwonted for me, saddened.

I found that curious...that I might.

RIP.

and export the crown.

Or with the price of gold...melt the sucker.

Or going potty..

Part of the draw of RU-486 is also the promise of discretion, which in itself belies the sense that abortion is "normal."

A simple kiss might be something one might wish to be a bit private.

You wrote what you wrote.

And if whiners venture into parsing any of that into

advocacy in any direction at all..

That's their own grief.

[Must say I never went all intuit as to whom you supported.

Just good commentary...but them I'm slow. So...]

A recent piece, dunno where...allowed as how good nutrition was contingent on three external factors.

These were:

1)income...poor people definitionally don't have much of that.

2)time...they may /or more probably*not?/ have more leisure available for the shopping and food preparation experience

3)education..largely withheld from the entire demographic.

It was given that with all three in hand,

one was golden,

with two in a quite nice place but with only one...screwed -

As to proper nutrition and everything that accompanies that feature in a life.

So the interconnections are well established; it simply is that they are made persistent in the poisonous AEI atmosphere steadily gassing us

by a truly dastardly crew of crooks and ....us. Yes, us.

These are critters enabled mainly by...us.

[*many poor spend a lot of their free time...surviving.

Been there, done that. It is a true thing]

When I saw the image lede for this piece...

I thought, - I really do kinda like Barack -

Well! There's one for the Brown 'Bamer.

I swear. I'm old or I wouldna even thought. Sorry.

But it was pretty impressive, wasn't?

Glenn..all of us... will be thrilled to have you bringing

a little more class to the marginal?Politico effort.

I'm sure you'll shine.

[Have a bit of fun while you're about it..

if you've a mind.]

All sorts of confounding variables.

Just associations or actually causal?

And DO not trust to truth telling if self-image

gets ever/at all involved.

on whether we both have ovaries

..if you both have both overies.

SO-o many variables

[How IS a girl to choose?]

Who told us that had women been given their head,

absent more manly contribution, so to speak

we'd still be living on beaches, drinking out of coconut husks and

beating our clothing clean on rocks convenient to the water?

sometimes referred with an irritating wink as "baby brain" -

'Chemo brain'...same sorta dynamic.

Similar mechanisms?

I wonder if --

But my own stereotypical view is that Latino culture is matriarchal and machismo is less a confident strut than a reflection of male insecurity. Which Latino voter had not met her type before -- the strong mother, the persevering wife,

-- the black demographic is not also largely engined by the moms.

Energized by lots of strong women.

[An longish stay in Africa certainly left me with that impression for my small experience there, at least.]

..lovely story.

Now I gotta wonder why I can't make gnocchi

and why I'm so lame that I never even thought to.

And maybe even find....love.

Let's not get too cocky...

Lest these as*holes don't just kinda allow something dreadful to sneak 'round all the terrific defenses that Dear Leader has -otherwise -enacted/erected and established.

Y'know just now like kind of an object lesson for those ever objectionable Democrat nasties running the house.

And, well yes, "I do think 9/11 was awfully convenient ....If you must know".

Belonged in Glenn's post just above.

But thanks for having it....anyway.

I was very distressed that A. Leonard had been inundated in a Countrywide fiscal meltdown or immolated in an islamofascist credit crunch.

But you know, he DID leave without so much as a word, a backwards glance or...

[actually did wonder if you'd been run over on the bike, so there's a relief.]

BEST ECONOMICS BLOGS?

CurrencyTrading.net has published their list of the Top 100 economics blogs. It's a bit odd. The main categories include Greg Mankiw, Tim Worstall, Cafe Hayek, and the Club For Growth. Aside from the Club for Growth, all those sites feature fine economic thinkers, but they're resolute conservatives, ad they bring those assumptions to their economics. Their liberal counterparts like Brad DeLong and the Angry Bear, however, are ghettoized into a "liberals" category, which also includes, inexplicably, The Wall Street Journal blog. And Megan McArdle escapes both the "conservative" and "libertarian" and is just "economic policy." It's all a bit odd. My understanding of the economics profession is that it's much less tilted to the right than the public face of the economics profession, but I've never really gotten a good explanation as to why liberal economists have let their discipline be painted as an adjunct of the Wall Street Journal editorial page.

All mixed, on the male side at least, with man-sized doses of

anxious masculinity.

Pathetic fluffs, actually. All poufs.

Gotta love those scandahoovian socialist types.
