Okay.  So after I did my weekly “Early on a Sunday Morning” post earlier today, which, this week, was just a rumination about the current presidential election race, I decided to take some time to get better acquainted with Sarah Palin–Senator McCain’s celebrated choice as his Vice-Presidential running mate.
I logged on to youtube and typed [...]

Early on a Sunday Morning

Ugh.  I just sneezed five times.  I’m not a quiet, gentle sneezer either.  It’s loud, thunderous, and almost obnoxious.  It runs in the genes.  We are a family of loud sneezers.
So, I watched most of the first big presidential debate between Senator Obama and Senator McCain on Friday.  To me, Obama came out punching and [...]
