And the White House may be neck-deep in this latest excursion into political dirty tricks. Nice.

Three Republican operatives, including consultant Allen Raymond, eventually ended up in jail for their involvement in the phone jamming scheme.

Well, it’s the Saturday before Christmas. I have, so far, managed to avoid the mob scene at any of the area malls. That raises my spirits as much as anything. We’ll be doing dual meals and celebrations to accommodate the schedules of both kids. One set tonight and tomorrow. Another on the “real” Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. My goal is to laugh a lot, share some stories, eat some (a lot) of good food and make some memories. Gifts? As I told them all, there’s really nothing I want or need.
We finally (yes, I am embarrassed to admit that we’re this late) got the needed Christmas decoration out, just in time to start thinking about packing them away in a week or two. We always end up running way late on the front side, so ours tend to stay up a bit longer than most folks.
Enjoy your time with friends and family. Cherish the moments together. Life will return to normal soon enough.
I’m looking forward to a very busy 2008. That’s a great thing, since it’ll keep me out of trouble - doing my regular job and helping a couple of friends get an interesting new project off the ground. You’ll find it linked over on the right. It’s all about politics, voters and the power of video.
Merry Christmas!!
