Wednesday Open Thread
Welcome to a regular Wednesday in summer. What, it’s not summer you say? It certainly feels like it. My husband and I waited until 8 PM last night to go running because we were hoping it would cool off some. It didn’t. It was still 80 when we finished the run around 9 PM. So, […]

Weekend Open Thread
It’s a holiday weekend and it’s time for an open thread. The holiday I’m talking about, of course, is iPad launch day.

April Fool’s Day Open Thread
It’s the first day of April and that means it’s time for April Fool’s Day. April Fool’s is becoming a bit of an internet holiday, so be careful what you read over the internets.

Monday Open Thread
Welcome to a dreary Monday open thread. What can we do to brighten your day? Perhaps an open thread will work? For some reason, CBS invited lunatic Rep. Michele Bachmann on Face the Nation and she was as fact-free as ever. Bachmann, who is by most measures stark raving mad, didn’t disappoint. Given the national […]
Weekend Open Thread
Happy weekend everyone! I hope you’re having a good one. A little birdie told me that liberalgeek is having a birthday today, so everyone wish him a happy birthday. I think he’s turning 29 today.
