Mostly over my jet lag

[giza]

I'm back from this year's Dorsai Thing (held in LA) and mostly over my jet lag. Taking a "red eye" flight on Sunday night and then heading right into work yesterday morning probably wasn't the brightest idea I've ever had. :-P

I still have to post my pics and con report. I'll do that later this week.


In other local news, anyone remember Ken Davis? Ken was one of the jackass commissioners in Lower Merion Township who was behind the whole Eminent Domain thing in Ardmore, PA a few years back. He wanted to take away peoples' property so that they could build bigger things. When citizens complained to him, he rebuffed them by telling them that they were wrong and insisted that taking away peoples' businesses was really a good thing.

Well, it seems that Ken is having a bit of a meltdown. He's decided to leave politics entirely, and is blasting those horrible bloggers and the Internet as the reason for this. Apparently we are all "anonymous ignorant cowards" and "know nothings" who have nothing better to do than criticize him. If that's how you handle criticism as an elected official, Ken, then I say good riddance to you.

So, did anything, er, notable occur at Thing? ;^)

Yeah, something about "joining the family wreath". :-P

Has the hangover subsided as of yet? I assume it it was epic.

Actually, no.

Drinking with the Dorsai Irregulars has toughened my liver way beyond those of mortal men. (Remember how much Morgan I drank at your place that one time? :-)

It always does my heart good when someone like Davis retires from the fray in defeat.

As a public official, you're supposed to be held to a higher standard than that of a public citizen. And yes, if you can't take the heat, then leave!
