General Assembly Post-Game Wrap-Up/Pre-Game Show: Thurs., April 26, 2018
Interesting day in the Senate. The ‘Angel Investor’ bill, which was completely rewritten via this amendment, passed the Senate, but only by a 14-7 vote. The bill had passed unanimously in the House. With the Senate amendment now attached, the bill will return to the House for another vote. The no votes?: Bonini, Hocker, Lawson, […]
Meet Chris Johnson Tonight!
Final warning! My candidate for AG will be in Arden tonight for a Meet and Greet at the Buzz Ware Village Center. Wine and cheese will be served, free of charge. Good wine, good cheese from my private collection. The event starts at 7:30 and I invite all of you to join Chris and me […]
General Assembly Post-Game Wrap-Up/Pre-Game Show: Weds., April 25, 2018
At least one gun-related bill is heading to the Governor’s office following a unanimous vote for it in the Senate.

The House and Senate leadership teams may well be the most ineffectual that I can remember. In fact, I’m struggling to think who comes in second. This is not me settling scores. This is a recognition of just how poorly they have mismanaged what should have been slam-dunk legislation to prevent mass carnage via deadly […]

The amazing Pullen-Adams Quartet was one of the great jazz bands of the -80’s. Here they’re joined by trombonist Roswell Rudd as they take a Monk tune into the stratosphere:
Song Of The Day: April 22, 2018
I spent an evening at the Broken Spoke in Austin, TX some 30-plus years ago. A great Texas honky-tonk. Couldn’t master either step of the Texas Two-Step. Guess I should’a worn boots instead of sneakers. Just stumbled onto this song that was recorded there, and I like it:
Song Of The Day: April 21, 2018
Headed over to the Hazardous Waste Disposal event at Mt. Pleasant Elementary this morning. Car’s loaded up with about 50 years of half-used paint cans. Just for context:
Delaware Political Weekly: April 13-19, 2018
1. Brandt Can’t. Won’t. Run. The ‘name on the ballot’ who the R’s convinced to run for the House seat currently held by Lisa Blunt Rochester is a name on the ballot no more. The, pardon the expression, aborted candidacy falls squarely on the shoulders of Mike Harrington, the out-of-his-depth Chair of the Delaware Republican […]
