Catching Up

(I’ll tell you why I’ve been so late in posting in a few weeks.) 

There have been too many stories from the US political season to even try to keep up, what with Obama vs. Hillary, Johnny Mac settling in to the Republican deck chair, the Dems convention and the whole bucket of Canadian political manure.

On top of that, we’ve had a propane storage yard blow up in Toronto, an outbreak of foodborne Listeriosis in deli meat across Canada and the Olympic coverage.  One reaches a point where the outrages and examples of mindless stupidity are piled up at the keyboard five-deep and you can’t find your mouse to get started.

Here’s what we’ll do:  Mason Baveux will handle the Olympics, as he was determined to watch as much as he could, then go on a two week bender.  He’s out of detox now and will post this weekend with his wrap up.  Meanwhile, I get to make sense of Canadian and US politics. OK?  Hang in.
