This is a movie I plan to see pronto.  And Lynn Allen has an early blogger review over at Evergreen Politics. 
See this movie!  The book, written by George Crile, has stayed with me since I read it shortly after it came out in 2003.   It is an amazing story of how three individuals working together, […]

I’ll be on Seattle’s 710 KIRO David Goldstein show  for the regional blogger round up along with TJ from Loaded Orygun.  
I dunno what we are going to talk about….

That was the signature phrase my Grandfather used in attempts to inspire a work ethic in his Grandchildren… a joke about the number of years, months and days he was in the workforce (never missing a paycheck was the punchline).  He would also calculate the stacked up height of the all the tuna fish sandwiches he ate for lunch during those years […]
