National Eurphoria interruption
I have been invovled with euphoria moment after euphoria moment, friends wanting to take in and savor how we feel this week as tough times are ahead. So I didn't write as much or as often as I'd like on the writing challenge. But I have 4 days to catchup and move forward. Ideas filled my mind in each empty moment, e.g. a training class on Wed and Thursday. Now to add the liquid and watch ...

Like all comas, we get into them not by ...
Caroline Kennedy as UN Ambassador?...
I saw on one of the news channels this morning that there is talk that Obama is considering the nomination of Caroline Kennedy as our UN Ambassador? It made me think about what possible qualifications she might have to lead this important post. According to wikipedia I can’t find any. It states that she is an attorney, writer, and editor. If it is true that she is being considered, is ...
