Frankly I've stopped monitoring Jill's blog for that reason - the signal to noise ratio has become pretty poor.<BR/><BR/>I've got lots of RSS feeds in my reader that may only post once a month. But they're usually gems.<BR/><BR/>I found my way here because my particular interest is in the politics of schools systems, and there was a time when you were writing about this.<BR/><BR/>Since then I've weighed in on a couple of your political thoughts, mostly to say that while I have deep political beliefs, I hate what partisan politics have become in this country, and I wish the rhetoric were not so shrill. I mean this Barak HUSSEIN Obama stuff by the McCain camp, and the Obama-in-Muslim-garb ploy by the Clinton folks are childish.<BR/><BR/>I think that you and I agree on much more than we disagree, but because I happen to pick the label 'Republican' and you pick 'Democrat', it seems like we're on opposite sides and have nothing in common.<BR/><BR/>These distinctions feel even more stupid to me when you peel back the onion a layer or two and figure out that the big money interests (both corporate and labor) hedge their bets by feeding both parties. It's less important who is in power than it is that they get a person in office that 'owes a favor.'<BR/><BR/>Anyway, please show up when you have something to say, and don't worry about posting frequency.<BR/><BR/>PLPaulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05960574627644930183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32582789.post-78555382029970198062008-02-28T11:57:00.000-05:002008-02-28T11:57:00.000-05:00Welcome back/Goodbye.

I appreciate your take on a lot of issues. I don't necessarily agree with all, or even most of them, but I appreciate them. We are roughly the same age; I have 2x the kids. <BR/><BR/>Those little girls need their 1-on-1 time with their daddies. Twenty years from now I doubt you will ever regret not posting as much as you could have when that time is spent with your "baby" girl.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32582789.post-40228577656189631512008-02-27T21:52:00.000-05:002008-02-27T21:52:00.000-05:00Oh, please, feel free to thieve.

That bit might be the only clever thing I ever do, and if someone with skill employed it, I'd be happy!<BR/><BR/>Regardless, hope you get you blogging shoes back, but if not, that's understandable as well.<BR/><BR/>I can empathize completely with the time constraint. There's no way I can post from work, and so I don't bother. But at night, I sometimes have engagements, family and otherwise, that don't permit reading, thinking, and finally, posting.<BR/><BR/>So I've tried to post shorter pieces, and I don't worry about not having something up everyday. Funny thing about those 19 readers, they tend to come back for reasons I don't comprehend.<BR/><BR/>Of course, I often get to rambling and after looking at the clock, curse myself for posting at 1am again.<BR/><BR/>Such are the risks.Jason Haashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14581224941149292415noreply@blogger.com
