A Note to Our Readers

Hey --
Sunday, we're hitting sleep time. DC, hope you were there. Hope you were doing something if you weren't.

We have new content and the following participated:


The Third Estate Sunday Review's Dona, Jess, Ty, Ava and Jim:
Rebecca of Sex and Politics and Screeds and Attitude;
Betty who was on the verge of starting Thomas Friedman Is a Great Man;
C.I. of The Common Ills and The Third Estate Sunday Review,
Kat of Kat's Korner (of The Common Ills),
Cedric of Cedric's Big Mix,
Mike of Mikey Likes It!,
Elaine of Like Maria Said Paz,
Ruth of Ruth's Report and her grandchildren Tracey and Jayson,
Wally of The Daily Jot,
and Trina of Trina's Kitchen

We thank all for their work. In addition Dallas helped as sounding board, link lacator and a lot more. And we thank Rebecca for photoshopping new illustrations.

New content?

Show Me What Democracy Looks Like (1-27-07) -- DC report -- not on what happened in Congress, on what happened among the people. This was done by all listed above. Everything else is your weekly gang except the TV review.

Run, Olson! Run! -- As Rebecca and Kat have both noted, "You make me sick. Always waiting for some Batman to rescue you."

Dear Darrell -- return to a topic from last week.

Now The Nation wants to reach the country? Now? -- Nation mag is putting out a new book at the end of the year. Who do they think will buy it.

"Occupation" or "war" -- noting a desire by some at the rally to drop "war" and start using "occupation."

A message from Sanford Levinson (humor) -- humor people, humor! It's funny. It's funny and it's true.

The Nation Stats -- How low can you go? Everybody, "How low can your go?" Women continue to be second-class citizens at The Nation.

Highlights -- credited in the feature and didn't they turn that into a mini-essay. Great job.

Editorial: Whose War Is It Anyway? -- if you do nothing, you're voting for the war. This was worked on by the usual plus Ruth and Trina.

TV: No Class in The Class -- Ava and C.I.'s TV review. We complimented them on it and they were both like, "Eh, leave me alone, I'm tired."

And we all are. But pretty good time and if it weren't for the new image program taking so much time (2 hours) we'd have been done much sooner.

See you next week.
