For anybody who cares, the job went shockingly easily.

The sink now drains, and the kitchen can now be cleaned. I cannot, however, return to blogging yet. Still a lot of billable work to do.

One more reason for light posting.

Overwhelmed by the cornucopia of yesterday’s festivities, the kitchen sink has backed up. Drain cleaner has no effect, and the water has been standing in both sides for a couple hours with no sign of subsiding.

Wish me luck.

Mark Steyn has set up a web site for all you Steynomaniacs out there.

It’s not a blog, but he is so prolific with great columns, it doesn’t need to be. It’s the place to do all your one-stop shopping for all things Steyn.

The pilots have finally won the right to be armed.

The old sick joke has apparently come gruesomely true.

Mommy’s response is, of course, “Shut up, or I’ll nail your other foot to the floor.”
