Be careful where you park your truck! Truck Palm infestation is a real hazard this time of year and will kill your resale value.

Project Valour-IT
The lean, mean, Air Force Team – Mrs. Greyhawk, The Mudville Gazette
Project Valour-IT, in memory of SFC William V. Ziegenfuss, helps provide voice-controlled/adaptive laptop computers and other technology to support Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines recovering from hand wounds and other severe injuries.
I asked to join the Air Force “team” (the “competition” between teams is all in good fun) because I first learned about Project Valour-IT from The Mudville Gazette. Now if I could just figure out the widget. Paging Jonathan….
I am going to this
“Please join us for a unique opportunity to engage with three experts [see below fold] on today’s hottest issues: the state of financial markets, the prospect of economic growth, the impact of government debt, and the future of free and open discussion of faith in the public square”

Jim Bennett Article on Cover of National Review
The current issue of National Review features an article by my future co-author Jim Bennett:
For decades, America had been on a course toward a more centralized society. But 1980 — with the arrival of Reagan and the departure of Carter — marked the point at which the nation reversed course. Thenceforth it would be headed in the opposite direction, toward a new vision of individualism and decentralism.
I have read Jim’s piece in draft, and I strongly suggest you read it.
