An explanation and a laugh

I have not used this as a personal blog. From the early email "postings" until now, I have blogged about the political, not the personal. I don't really expect that to change.

But I am moving through another transition period in my life, as my father's health continues to fail, and whether or not he manages to recover from this latest crisis, it is still true that we are all, those that love him, trying to be there for him during this last transition in his life.

So my posting here is affected, both in its frequency and perhaps, ultimately, in its content.

I needed a laugh tonight, so you get one, too.
