Go somewhere else (but come back tomorrow)
Sadly, I can’t muster the concentration required for a cogent post this evening. I could set the alarm an hour earlier for tomorrow, but unless I stumble upon some really interesting election coverage, let’s face it, you’re not going to be interested.
Besides the election (which happily seems to be floating along quite non-violently), nothing I could write would have a chance of getting much attention this post-election day. There is something about a new puppy; soggy piles of leaves in the back yard; The Lion King. Any of these would make a perfect sacrifice to the election news cycle. But so would a blank page. Even better would be a post about not writing a post, which is what this thing appears to be turning into.
So I leave you to ponder Dan Rather’s incoherencies. My favorite was when he said something about how Missouri would “swing count Bassie.” Just try to imagine what it’s like inside his head. Must be like standing on the half-line of a dodge ball game that’s being played with wet kittens.
See you tomorrow.
