Going On Vacation Next Week

I'm reaching out to some folks to help cover my absence. If you'd like to do so, please email me.

Although I will check in on the blog, to the extent I do anything it will be of the maintenance level. If there isn't a post for hours, I might put up an open thread or just a link to something else, just to keep the blog from flatlining in between the morning headline post and ONT. But that'll about be it.

But I do need some time away (you may notice that from my awful output lately) and so the blog might be pretty quiet for nine days. Hopefully it'll be nice and busy with cobloggers and guest posters. I'm a little worried on that front, though, because if people are feeling like I'm feeling, I'm thinking they might need a break too.

To add something to this post: Governor Cuomo of New York is apparently competing with Dave In Texas for the Crap Tree Trophy. What the hell is this? And why is there a silver tiger and sliver leopard apparently guarding this abomination?

Are they afraid someone would steal this tree, if it weren't guarded by Christmas Tigers?

In related news, Bob Guccione just called, he wants his sense of style back.
