I am one of those folks who never really thought of Grover Norquist as being the face of evil.  At least not evil in the Hellfire and Brimstone sense.  And I don’t think that Paul Krugman really think’s he’s evil either. But, Norquist and his ilk, despite having backed away from the deregulation fiasco–and none have yet acknowledged their policy advisements were in any way, shape, or form irresponsible or disastrous–do still represent a dire threat to our economic future.

I just spent the morning with the Phoenix leg of the Zig Ziglar Get Motivated! seminar.  An afternoon of fellowship, leadership, and motivational speaking.  

With the death of the elder Kristol in September, Newsweek’s David Margolick published this week a rundown on the Neoconservative movement, in its current formation.

In continuing the cooking series.

Sadly, these aren’t the ribs I finished last night. We were sadly short handed, and I wasn’t able to get any shots during the process. My assistant had to fill in for her mother thanks to a nasty flu bug that put her little brother in the hospital, so there was some scrambling yesterday to do the extras.
