Wow. The kids go on spring break and my free time disappears!
So when is it my turn to go on vacation?
Anyway, sorry for the lack of posting. It isn't all Spring Break related. I've been fairly busy on my own. I spent a couple of days melding pieces parts from two lawn mowers in an attempt, successful, I might add, to create a single functioning mower. The victory was a phyrric one, I'm afraid, because now that I had a functioning mower, I had no excuse not to mow the grass. And that, my friends, accounted for 2 more days. And a truly staggering case of poison ivy.
Yeah, I love yard work.
Anyway, while I was away, I missed the whole Bill Hobbs controversy, and though I may be a day late, I do have some things to say about that. Also, I've been doing some research on US immigration policy. A comment on my immigration story last week said that only 4000 unskilled workers were allowed into the US each year, and that was why so many entered illegally. That number seemed ridiculously low, so I started researching. What I found surprised me, and did change the way I view these protests. I'm still following up on that research, but look for a good piece before the end of the week.
And I'm sure I'll have a random piece or two about whatever piques my interest.
