Democrats are in full-out PANIC now. This is something that you would expect to read in some cold war Soviet newspaper. You get the impression that Scott Brown is not just a truck-driving rapist himself, he's the leader of a whole cadre of truck-driving rapists.; 1/19/10, 12:54 AM

At the Hoar House...."

Does that make Ann the madam? No, she's warm these days.

I just knew this was coming. Meade's idea?

Even in the fields primeval around here, the snow looks grungy. That's about the time you really start to go stir-crazy.

Lucky for you, it still beckons where you are.; 1/19/10, 6:28 AM

Thanks for the reminder Ann, it may come in handy again.; 1/19/10, 7:39 AM

Hoare had negotiated several landmark treaties with the French, but when he resigned, and was replaced by Anthony Eden, the King quipped to Eden:

"No more coals to Newcastle, no more Hoares to Paris"; 1/19/10, 5:25 PM
