Mercifully, it’s warmed up a wee bit — if only for the weekend — and life is good.
My daffodils are just about to burst forth in all of their buttery, golden glory. But, alas, they are still teasing me as tightly-shut buds.

— The Obama administration reversed the Bushie "don’t talk with actual experts" policy on endangered species act decisions.

— Uh. Mah. Gawd. My eyes. My eyes.
