To My Readers. . .

I've decided to suspend my blog for awhile.  I've come to realize that the loss of my beloved dog Cassidy has caused me to reassess who I am and what I'm doing.  He was, above all, a joyful creature who worked his way into the deepest part of my being.  His passing not only breaks my heart but also raises new challenges for me.

I'll be back in some form.  I may focus on the political parodies that I like to compose or I may find that a new presidential election--coming sooner than we think--will revive my interest in the Washington circus, which has become petty and uninspired.

In the meantime I thank you for your support these last three years, and I'll look forward to resuming my work soon.
