Hey --
Another Sunday. Can you believe how early we are? Especially for us?
First up, we thank all who participated this edition which includes Dallas and the following:
The Third Estate Sunday Review's Jim, Dona, Ty, Jess and Ava,
Rebecca of Sex and Politics and Screeds and Attitude,
Betty of 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,
Wally of The Daily Jot,
Trina of Trina's Kitchen,
Marcia of SICKOFITRDLZ,
Stan of Oh Boy It Never Ends,
Isaiah of The World Today Just Nuts,
and Ann of Ann's Mega Dub.
And what did we come up with:
Justin Raimondo. An obvious choice.
David Walsh made it an easy week to pick truests.
Say no to the crazy. We'll all be a lot better off. And "grandma"? I (Jim) just typed -- and then deleted -- a sentence. Dona asked me, "What are you writing about your grandmother for?" I have no idea but that's how tired I am.
Ava and C.I. had a piece on alternative or community radio they were going to write. They put it on hold to tackle the safety net and the silence on the safety net.
A wide ranging roundtable. I hope everyone got to speak.
Dona cried "Short feature!" I replied, "What?" She had no idea but pointed out we could do a short feature and then go to sleep. We all jumped at the idea and Jess surfed over to the White House where he found the picture we use in this.
I think we said what was needed in the article but I especially enjoy the illustration.
ETAN repost.
Workers World repost.
Great Britian Scocialist Worker reprint.
Mike and the gang wrote this and we thank them for it.
That's it, we'll see you next week.
Peace.
-- Jim, Dona, Ty, Jess, Ava and C.I.
