As Election Day approaches, the days are going by faster -- if that's possible. Juggling my normal S-R work schedule with regular blogging and now the National Review blogging has made things interesting. But fun. Who woulda thunk you could teach an old dog a new trick -- blogging -- and he'd catch on so well that he'd go national in 9 months? Oh well, my 15 minutes of fame ends Election Day when the clock strikes and I turn back into a pumpkin. Or at least my old Tercel does. Before then, however, I and Mike Kennedy'll be on Dick Haugen's morning show (8:20 a.m. Monday, Nov. 1) to talk about the race. Kennedy is running the Kerry for Prez crusade in Idaho. Dick and I will put him out of his misery Monday after next. Stay tuned.
