Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

Weekend

Hope y'all will be on a salt-water beach or on a boat this weekend. Stupid not to be.


I'll do both. Such delights are hard-earned. See ya out there on Block Island. I'll be the youngish guy near the dock with the Coors Light. I'll raise a can for Industrial Labor, but not for government labor unions. So the unions drive the auto industry to Mexico - we still have Unemployment and Disability. Mexico loves our Labor Day! Viva Mexico!


On the other hand, a great weekend to bang around NYC too. Nobody there, so it's all yours.


Real life resumes next week for better or worse.


Obama headlines three fundraising events on Friday, including two in Westchester County and a third in Newport, Rhode Island. Busy guy.
