the AT Blog’s Swiftian satirist presents a mirror for the bloodsuckers,
but like the vampires they emulate,
the damned cannot see their reflections.


“Satire is a sort of glass,
wherein beholders do generally discover everybody's face but their own.”
Jonathan Swift

However, I'm beginning to think I_AM_THE_NRA is getting better each passing day. Should we sent contributions?

Dadgumit, Max, you stole my thunder. Was gonna put Aunt Bea’s obit on the open line tonight. My favorite parts:

“A dedicated reader of the Arkansas Gazette, she never embraced the merger with the Democrat, but read it cover to cover.”

“Her love for her students extended beyond teaching literature, grammar, and journalism. She invited many adults to her kitchen table and taught them to read and write. “

“[O]ne of her greatest honors was being asked by a committee of African American students in the mid 70's to deliver Rev. King's "I have a dream" speech at a black history assembly at England High School. She was both humbled and honored, and delivered that speech proudly and respectfully. She truly judged people by the content of their character rather than race, economic or social status.”

Would love to have known Carrie Mae Stell Austin of Monticello.

PS: Cindi, read your LTE in today’s paper. Splendid!

There are so many areas that could use their passion. One female in this world dies every minute from complications of pregnancy and childbirth. The infant mortality rate in this world is awful too. 16,000 children die daily from starvation-related issues. The females in violence and AIDs ravished nations could use so much help with contraception and more. I wish they've morph to a 'right to live' movement instead.

Of course it is. Every public agency is doing it. Pick the one program that pulls the most heartstrings and say that if one red cent is cut from the budget, that is the one and only program that must go.

If it's that important, prioritize to keep it.

Ozarkrazo....good luck with your appointments today! Please be careful out there.

Continuous rolling thunder here....just one long rumble with only short periods of silence in between. It brings to mind the Cheryl Crow song. Two dogs (one 37 pounds and one 127 pounds) are trying to climb into my lap for assurance all will be ok. I'm a small person so this isn't working out very well.

High winds pushing all of the water falling from the sky sideways into the glass of the windows and doors. I can only see a few feet past my upper deck so I am not sure of the conditions past my porch, but if the noise is any indication, it isn't pretty.

Dish is out and the power just went out briefly, but is back on right now.

In the last couple of days we've had a massive ice storm, an earthquake in Manila, Arkansas and now severe thunderstorm warning in the state.

I think the lord is sending a messge to the Republicans in the General Assembly to BACK OFF.

This issue isn't about whether abortion should be legal or not. It's about that movement refusing to accept the fact it is and terrorizing the ones who benefit from that legality, both legally and day-to-day in person and with their ridiculous screams. It's time for it to stop.

What were the votes to hire/fire Roy Brooks?

Not sure that I would trust that bunch to decide on catfish or carp for a fish-fry.
