I just survived an elementary school dance tonight – it looked like a clan of insane hobbits took over a discotheque.  I didn’t even have the foresight to pack earplugs or a flask.  Things could always be worse.

(Hobbit Hip-Hop).

Worse, like finding out a friend died in a plane crash.  I discovered that today.  It’s a terrible fate for anyone but especially heartbreaking when it’s someone so extremely nice.  Just another reminder to make the most of every day, you never know when you’ll be called home.

Al-CIA-da must have read my article Droning On and On, https://perrinlovett.wordpress.com/2013/02/15/droning-on-and-on/, and felt sorry for Amerikans.  They have just released to the West their 22-point strategy for evading drones: http://hosted.ap.org/specials/interactives/_international/_pdfs/al-qaida-papers-drones.pdf.  You have to skim through a little propaganda to get to the list.  We had better memorize these (if they work???).

Several new articles (some serials) are under development here in blogland.  The first several will be follow-ups and extensions to my recent articles on law and politics.  And, of course, there’s the much-anticipated exercise routine, part 2 of the Loser follow-up.  I hope to get one or more of these up this weekend.  Speaking of which, if we don’t chat again, have a great weekend!
