The Junco is is sparrow, not a finch, Mr. Sibley. Funny, if you are a birder. It's "inside" humor.
Trees worsen global warming. Interesting. nb: We do not care one bit about global warming. We do enjoy chain saws, however, with beer.

Hey, Al Gore. It is below freezing in New England in the morning, and we have yet more snow predicted for this weekend. Please leave the weather alone, Al. We got 10 inches yesterday, and the daffodils are buried.
Sweden: Slackers find it more rewarding not to work. Brussels Journal. Pathetic. Or is it sour grapes? Would I rather spend my day smoking pot, drinking beer, getting stupid, and chasing Stockholm flickas? A monkey on welfare? Hmmmm. Let me think...
Dr. Bob, a quote from a piece on socialized medicine:
Now, my intent is not to beat up the poor fellow; he is, after all, a liberal, and therefore possessed of a profoundly misguided understanding of human nature and motivation, and a strong inherent (and incoherent) proclivity for finding in government the solution to every imaginable problem. He is more to be pitied than censured. But his comment prompted me to begin thinking about some of the more common medical myths; those axiomatic convictions which seem to drive every discussion about healthcare policy, and show up in virtually every comment section on a health policy-related post. This particular gentleman’s comment mentions at least two such myths, and therefore provides lush green fodder for a rambling rumination on my part.
