Scrambling

Tuesday Blurbs
Summer is over. The kids start school today, and things return to normal. Thing
is, I kinda like it when things aren't normal, especially when it means my days
aren't sandwiched between getting the kids to school and getting home in time

The Labor Day Eudemon
Not much today. After writing on Saturday morning that I was going to relax,

but I don't have time right now to straighten them out.

Out Again
I took the family to Cedar Point [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cedar_Point],
America's best amusement park, yesterday. The kids had a great time (rode 14
rollercoasters, some more than once), but we didn't get home until midnight. I'm
dragging, and I have
The Light Eudemon
I'm beckoned out of town, so I have no time to blog. I will mention, though,
that Drudge cracked me up with this Idaho Senator headline: Terror in the
