Peggy just called. She's landed in Sacramento, will be home in about
2-1/2 hours. Woo hoo! She's very much a mimic, so I'll be living with
a Southern Belle for a couple of days.

Reading the transcript of the President's speech...
"... millions of lives were changed in a day by a cruel and wasteful
storm."
Must be a Democratic storm. A Republican storm would not have been
wasteful. He should have recovery-meister Karl Rove look into that.
"We've also witnessed the kind of desperation no citizen of this
great and generous nation should ever have to know..."
... Such as the most powerful and self-sufficient government on earth
sitting on its hands for five days while ...
"fellow Americans calling out for food and water, vulnerable people
left at the mercy of criminals who had no mercy, and the bodies of
the dead lying uncovered and untended in the street."
I have to stop before I start shouting. Now I'm glad I didn't watch
