Other Stuff I do at the WV State Capitol

Yesterday, at the local "Mountain Mission" thrift store, I discovered a wonderful maple colonial rocking chair, in pristine shape and for only $30.

It looks great in my legislative apartment.

It will feel even greater when I find a cushion for it.

All of this eclectic elegance will be further enhanced with the lava lamp that a friend has promised to give to me.

Now, if I just can find that lighted and neon bordered wall clock...

Is Atlas Shrugging?

Reflecting yesterday, on our nation's "Flag Day", it grieved me to consider the panderings of a handful of partizan zealots, from both major political parties, who use the anonymous local newspaper reader forums ("Journal Junction" & "Mail Call") to distort and manipulate issues on behalf of their political parties and candidates.

Do they not realize that they are contributing to the disillusionment and disgust of the people in our entire political process and Constitutional system of governance, bought so dearly by patriots' blood?

Are our forefathers turning over in their graves?

Is *Atlas shrugging?


* "Atlas Shrugged" is a political novel by Ayn Rand.
