Dropping the Ball
Two nights ago for this occasion, we held a party for West Side Young Adults at our apartment! I
still have unpublished material from then, that I was hoping to publish, in a draft post at one or more of my blogs.
My
health was on the upswing at that time (late 2015). Things went down
afterwards though, and 2016 was mixed, while ending on a
not-so-healthful note. For much of 2017, I was in a hospital. But I
still could have done a lot more.
I was hoping, before
year's end, to finish the series I've started at
my money blog, about how to
layout layers of savings upon each other, to get prices as close to
$0.00 (and sometimes, lower than that!) at the stores. Great
expectations!
But for the moment, I wanted to say: Just as I dropped the ball on blogging
this year, THE BALL is
going to drop, in less than an hour.
Merry CHRISTmas (which
it still is!) and Happy New Year!

I hope everyone has had a reflective Patriot Day.

So, who's it going to be?
SCOTUS pick 2017
The last time I blogged on the evening of a SCOTUS pick, I was sitting right here. I IMed Josh Claybourn and Alex Brunk, who had the info which was broken by Erick Erickson.
That was in 2005.
So who's it going to be, this time?
=============
I just saw a
FB post from Scott Presler suggesting it might be Neil Gorsuch. Is that that case?
Update: Apparently, it's either The Hon. Neil Gorsuch or the Hon. Thomas Hardiman.
PRAY HARD about SCOTUS... It's so powerful.

Merry CHRISTmas!!
In response to some Christmastime angst I expressed years ago, Adrianne Truett reminded us that today is still Christmas!
