Thanksgiving Wishes and Steaming Dishes!
Yon turkey roasting in the pan
we simmer greens for Uncle Stan
got Aunt Belinda’s mac’n'cheese
and pumpkin pie that’s sure to please
sweet yellow corn is on the cob
those yams are bubbling on the hob
i got a chance and had to say
y’all have a fab Thanksgiving Day!

It must be star power, baby! But what if, just once, they threw a Grand Old Party and no one came?
Well, as TV’s Craig Ferguson aptly put it earlier tonight: as soon as she figures out where Georgia is, she’ll be right down.
And as Charlie Daniels once sang, ‘The Devil Went Down to Georgia.’ Then maybe they can pal around together.

Here’s a good resource for Georgia Politics if you can stand the heat of the Thirteenth Colony:
or go to the radio magazine I’m currently listening to here:
Derivatives must be tamed
Woven through the tapestry of our modern financial system are derivatives, once thought to be golden, now lost their polish and shine.
And all the King Midasses and all the king’s men couldn’t put confidence back together again – until and unless they resolve the basic issues resulting from their self-created pyramid scheme and stop throwing what amounts to trillions in counterfeit money at it:
