Brooklyn, NY— As this is written, I’m in the second largest city in America, the ferstwhile home of the Brooklyn Dodgers. Of course that was back in the day that America gave a damn about baseball.

To say this is a unique place is to state the obvious, but it is only obvious for those who have actually been here. Flatbush Ave deserves some exploration, and maybe some day I’ll get the chance to do it. I’ve mentioned to Donna and the boys we might do a three day down here to explore a bit… mixed reviews on that.

From here, I’ll move west out to Carlisle,PA and up to Albany, NY.

These warmer spring days are nice for driving, though the wind and rain can be an issue. Such was the case today. Took me a couple hours extra to get where I was going, today.

I’ve been trying Skype, to allow me to place vidphone calls from the truck to the house. It’s amazing how I can feel closer to home in that simple action. This is a decidedly lonely job, this professional driving long-haul, but there are ways to deal with it.

Looking around:

  • An ode to Crisco? Why, Glenn isn’t that just about any Ricky Martin tune? (Yes, I know…  and I really don’t care. Get it?)
  • David Fedrosso… who is now on my Facebook list, by the way… comes up with a must read. Like David, I’m unconvinced this ruling of itself will kill off Socialist Security… but the first step is there. You KNOW someone’s going to challenge the basis of the ruling.  If it then gets upheld, it beomces legal precident. Watch for the Soros minions to be tossing lots of George’s money at this one.
  • Had you heard about the death threats against Lee Terry, a Republican Congresscritter? No, neither had I. Now compare that level of coverage to what a Democrat might get for press coverage in the same situation.
