Should a blogger do so every day?  If I can’t manage to  get some passion up for the topic…any topic, should I put something here just to fill space and a date on the calendar?

I have a cold and some kind of intestinal crud just now and I just can’t seem to get a lot of enthusiasm for anything going.  The news is not sparking intelligent or even semi-amusing thoughts; just a lot of inarticulate howling with intermittent cursing thrown into the pot.

The SOTU address made me wonder why anyone moved, clapped, stood up….and the guy sleeping through it was the only honest one there.  So…blah, blah, dark night of the soul with kleenex box, Vicks vaporub and German philosophy at my side.  The only useful thing I did today was go to the Honey House to make some skin balm for some friends in Afghanistan—they say the water is chewing them up!

So far as everything else goes?  Humbug!  Nap time!
