Gone Fishing!



Actually, I hate fishing. But, its an apt metaphor for how I feel. Got to remove the clicking brain from the stuff that is floating around for a few days.....weeks, who knows.

Hope your new year is a good one.

OK, my brain is also fried from the ever increasing crap that comes out. And yes it all tests my faith in the body politic. But, I'm still hopeful; it may take a Fitzgerald here and there, but I think we can eventually get back on even keel. Smooth sailing (fishing?)to you.

Mark,
Glad you're back in one piece. Let us know what went on where you were. I'm pretty exhausted and the situation is getting pretty desperate in the States. We look longingly at Europe in a reversal of roles.

Actually I was medevacced back due to a family crisis early in December - Du came and fetched me.

Head injury - no sensation in right leg, (which I'm told will ultimately get better,) and my sodding right lung is sticking which is getting a bit wearing. Being looked after very well by the lady who was our housekeeper when I lived in Beirut. And am perhaps in not the sweetest of tempers :-).

I agree with you about the US situation it is getting pretty bleak. not surprised you're exhausted and not surprised you're discouraged either. Doc you're NOT alone and the situation is NOT yet lost somebody with your intelligence and decency can find some highly intelligent kindred spirits at firedoglake I comment there fairly regularly (as does my son Dubhaltach) who I believe commented once or twice here. Or if you want to read what a Grumpy Greying Gaelic Gorilla has to say for himself you can visit my blog which I'm using as an "overflow" while I get my main site ready.
