hardballtimes.com 22 days ago — Just want to thank everyone for all the kind words in my little ego thread yesterday. It's humbling to say the least.

My Morning in Exile
hardballtimes.com 27 days ago — Columbus, Ohio has the highly annoying habit of scheduling trick-or-treating on nights other than Halloween.
