My doc says Guiness is good for you.
I can’t wait till Winter hits. (Global warming and all)
Another reason is people tend to see their generation or time as more significant than actually it is. That's why people like Tom Cruise and Julia Roberts win the “Best Actors of the 20th Century” contest and other such nonsense. The majority voting never heard of Sir Lawrence Olivier or Richard Burton, for example. I call this Chronoism or Temporism. Bias to ones’ own time.
Anyway, people have always enjoyed a good conspiracy or disaster story. The threat makes them feel more significant than they are.
Morning AB, weather finally cleared up in north central Florida. It has been dreary for most of last week. Looks like Health Care is on the menu, but senators are ready to talk about anything. Did you get any Irish lace?
What's a DBM - - Damn biased media?
Had swordfish and stone crab yesterday! Yummy time of year!

Thanks AB
Glad you’re back with the Home team.
Back to read & lurk

DBM - commonly applied to Drive By Media, although your explanation of the acronym works just as well.
My buddys/radio partners went 11 for 17 on wahoo to 62 lbs. on Wed. quite a trip.
That news report about Obamaville was more concerned about the audacity of an unknown somebody putting up that sign than in the condition and causes for the tent city.
Good morning, Alas! You have returned.
most need serious attitude adjustments, even the ones purported to be of a ‘conservative bent’.....
....attitude adjustments can consist of placing offending pundits in a burlap sack and whacking them with 2X4s...........figuratively speaking of course...I would never condone violence (snicker)
I see Christian Roemer (or as I like to call her, Little Lotta) will be on today with her inappropriate giggling and non-informative comments.
LOL. I knew that was you before I got to the bottom of the post.
Sunday Morning Talk Shows - That amazing time of the week when people go on television to speak authoritatively and at length regarding subjects about which they know absolutely nothing.
