Here and There

This blog isn’t exactly a bastion of discussion. It’s much more me twittering links to those who would visit (a healthy number of people or robots, by my estimation), and an occasional rant about this or that. That’s fine with me.

But I’m about to go away on a two-week vacation, and wanted to at least leave my baby open for business. I won’t be updating (or, rather, I doubt I’ll be updating, and I really hope to resist should the urge creep in). I may check in to clean out the spam cupboard.

By “leave my baby open,” what I mean is I want to encourage you, dear reader, to keep this machine running through comments. I’ve never deigned to post a so-called open thread. This just isn’t that kind of blog.

But I’ll be away, at somewhat of a disadvantage as far as keeping up with the election and the economy, the wars, etc. So, if you feel the need to share, please do so in the comments.

Three rules of commenting will apply, both while I’m gone, and in general on this blog:

1. No hateful language, unless that hatred is directed toward Republican rule.
2. No racism, unless that racism is directed toward white people in the United States of America.
3. No incitement to violence, ever. Period.

Have fun, and I’ll see you October 7.

xoxo Jeff

P.S. Since you’re wondering, London, Paris, Berlin, Mardrid, in that order. I jokingly called the trip “a giant sign of the cross over a godless continent.”
