Coffee in Hand - I am Back

1
Boy - a little queasy, though.  Soap-infused coffee is definitely not something I recommend on a rainy Tuesday morning. Speaking of which - is it me, or do you associate Tuesday's with rain?  Thursday's, too.  In my mind those are the greyer days of the week.  And speaking of greyer ... are greyer and grayer different [.

Bad Title, But Lots of Thursday Stuff

First off, get well wishes to HollyCornblog who is recovering from a bad ankle sprain sustained in a nasty fall at work.  Keep it iced and raised ... and, as we like to say to Willie (and to Ruby - but with much less effect), "Heel!"

Soccer and Sneakiness On Monday Morning

10
First the soccer news, which includes Angela Hucles' 100th cap (in a career year for her) and another win (over South Korea) for the USWNT.  With two more games left in their post-Olympic Tour, it woulds like the team is pleasing Pia! The NESCAC  Soccer Tournament is over for another year.  (Oh yeah, that's the New [. Click to continue reading...

Now it’s November

Another Halloween has gone by with no trick or treaters on this hill (and now we have a hefty basket of chocolate to work our way through).  It's November and we're at four days and counting.  As the sun rises, for the last time in Daylight Saving mode, let's see what's going on out there [...] Click to continue reading...

McCain Unmasking Monday, Tech Tips, and Soccer Sundries

 The Time Finder posted information about some great computer shortcuts this morning - along with a link to the NY Times article by David Pogue.  Who knew, for example, that you can use Google like a calculator?  And here's a cool tip that I found in the "Comments" - A little less known one I enjoy [.

Sunday Sundries … Before the Great Migration

I'm going to be migrating everything from my old computer to my new one in just a wee bit ... so am posting somewhat quickly now.  Hopefully you'll hear from me again.

The Administration That Cried Wolf, McCain’s Mental Status, the WPS, and Happy Birthday HollyCornblog!

1
Lots to write about today ... and let me start with what's been nagging at me ever since this whole Wall Street debacle became the latest national emergency.  I keep thinking, "What if this really is an emergency?  Bush certainly looked terrified last night in the clips I saw of his address to the nation.

About that Landon Donovan rumor...

12
Let's not beat around the bush. This thing about Landon Donovan moving to Bavarian titans Bayern Munich has been floating around the Inter-nets for a couple weeks. It gained steam a couple days ago in an ESPN.com story where Donovan basically said he wants to move to Germany, or someplace in Europe to give it another crack after two colossal failures at Bayer Leverkausen where he initially signed Click to continue reading...

Tuesday and We’re Back at It

1
I'm home and still catching up, so this will be brief.  We're undergoing an audit by the State of NH at work starting tomorrow and running through the end of the week.  (As Princess Sparkle Pony would say ...

Rushed Saturday Stuff …

1
This morning's post will likely be quick, as I've gotta make 2 dozen sandwiches for some soccer-game tailgating by 7:30 AM.  But enough about me! On Truthdig I came upon this Palin Perspective from John Dean (yes, that John Dean).  Basically he argues, rather damningly, that were a sitting President in the position of having to [.

In What Respect, Charlie?

4
This clip of Charlie Gibson's interview with Sarah Palin pretty much says it all.  McCain may be channeling Bush, but Sarah is pretty much the real thing ... never EVER letting her ignorance stand in the way of her swagger and bellicosity.

Maddow, Huffington, a Bit of Soccer, and Yeah, Some Palin, Too

 So Rachel Maddow's new show premiered last night and while I didn't see the whole thing (had a meeting) and didn't see Boltgirl there (not yet, that is), what I saw I liked a lot (not surprisingly).  Way to go Rachel!

Wow - I read today in the Swedish press that Pia has turned down an invitation from Dubya to visit the White House and be graced by his presence.

USWNT v. Canada … 23 Hours and Counting

Tomorrow at 6AM we'll start the next leg of the Olympic tournament journey. There's not a lot in the way of soccer news in the interim.

I didn't stay up late enough to actually see Michael Phelps and his relay teammates get the gold - but what a stunner as Jason Lezak anchored an amazing race!

McCain’s Geography (and Internet Travels), Hillary’s VP Chances, and (Of Course) Some USWNT Soccer …

6
John McCain made another Bush-worthy geography gaffe yesterday - this time on "Good Morning America." Sorry, John, Iraq and Pakistan don't actually share a border.

Man United manager gets no support from Sunderland counterpart over player loyalty

Yes, according to The Writer's Almanac, it's Arianna Huffington's birthday. Best wishes - and I'm glad your journey landed you in the blogosphere!

USWNT Plays Sweden Today, Bushies Do More Dirt, and So On

In what could well be their biggest challenge to date, the USWNT face Sweden in Sweden for the first time ever!

The USWNT defeated Norway 4-0 yesterday in Fredrikstad, and Abby Wambach scored her 99th career goal! Next up is Sweden on July 5th.

Conservation vs. Drilling and Other Wednesday Wrinkles

Yes, it's true. According to this US News and World Report article, the Prez apparently feels he is having a good final year.

Agents and Ade and other stuff too

Vincenzo Morabito is a name we've heard a lot in recent times.

He was the man who Alexander Hleb went to meet for an ice-cream but at no stage discussed a transfer to Inter Milan with. No sir. He's also the man who said that Roma's Alberto Aquilani was 'speaking to Arsenal' back in May.
