Speaking of Wallowing

Friday, November 16, 2012

(See Previous post) The Groton Democrats will be holding a victory party at which we non-traditional Americans will celebrate our deliverance from the specter of a Romney presidency, never mind the almost equally frightening specter of a Senator McMahon. If you hate America too, come join us at the Groton Motor Inn at 3:00 PM […]

Closed for repairs

Monday, October 22, 2012

Our Internet service has been cutting out periodically. We’ll get five, maybe ten minutes of service, and then it’s down for half an hour or more. A service person is coming Wednesday, so until then, no posts. I’m just hoping I can get this up before it cuts out again.

A short hiatus

Tuesday, October 2, 2012

It could be a while before I further pollute the Internet. Civic duty tonight, debate tomorrow, and Drinking Liberally on Thursday. Speaking of Drinking Liberally, we’ve been trying to get the word out to all that we’re moving back to the Bulkeley House, 111 Bank Street in New London at 6:30 PM. If you like […]

Register

Saturday, September 1, 2012

The Obama campaign and the Democrats are doing something you won’t find on any Republican site: making it easy (or as easy as they can, considering the Republican’s ongoing voter suppression) to vote. They are distributing open source code that anyone can use to register. For reasons I can’t fathom, I can’t seem to make […]

New Blog Theme

Tuesday, August 28, 2012

For some reason the Blog’s title was ascending out of the title bar of the old theme, and I could figure no way of fixing the problem other than changing themes. Also, for some reason, the typeface has changed. Still working on that.  If the typeface on this looks odd, that’s why. As I do […]

Lon Seidman hits the big time

Saturday, January 21, 2012

Lon Seidman, who I’ve kidded here on occasion for his technophilia, has been invited to the White House to tweet the State of the Union address. You can follow Lon at @lonpaul.

A Message from On High

Thursday, January 19, 2012

Hi. God here, with an important announcement.   You may be wondering why I have chosen to issue this pronouncement on this backwater blog. Well, as Randy Newman had me say, “My ways are mysterious, sometimes even to myself”.   But I’m not here to talk about Randy. I mean, I love the guy, but […]

Michael Moore coming to Jorgenson Hall

Wednesday, November 16, 2011

I was flattered to receive an email from the Mark Twain House asking that I plug Michael Moore’s upcoming appearance at UConn. The person who wrote to me must be extremely hard working if she dug down so deep as to find this blog. Anyway, here’s the info, straight from the horse’s mouth: November 18th […]

A Plug

Friday, October 21, 2011

Friend, reader and oft times Liberal Drinker Audrey Heard art will be exhibiting at the Tsetse Gallery in New London starting next week. My wife and I have several of Audrey’s pieces. From the looks of the poster below, it looks like Audrey has moved in a slightly different direction. We have several still lifes, […]

Closed due to power failure

Wednesday, August 31, 2011

Realistically, I doubt that our power will be back before the weekend. Maybe, if I’m lucky, in time for Friday night video. Right now I’ve managed to get my iPad near free wireless, but more opportunities will be infrequent, so I’ll stay shuttered for the duration.
