Thanks to all who cared about the condition of my cracked olecranon (aka elbow). It's less sore today, and I have had a bandage on it - mainly so I remember not to bump it into anything. I've survived worse!
French winemakers hope for global warming.

Even our friend at The Moderate Voice gets irrational when it comes to the Dark Lord Rove:
From the sliming of John McCain in the 2000 primaries to the outing of Valerie Plame and the firing of the U.S. Attorneys for not being political enough, Rove’s fingerprints have been all over every unethical, immoral and illegal move of the Bush Administration.
