OF COURSE LOTT NEEDS TO GO

For one thing, I am not enjoying the sensation of agreeing with Maxine Waters.

More importantly, he has revealed himself, at best, as someone who is too stupid to be trusted with his position and possibly as something far worse.

WHAT DOES A BALD BEAR LOOK LIKE?

Apparently, like a horrifyingly large rat. Who knew?

EXCUSES, EXCUSES

Sorry to leave you so long with only Mr. Bits! I am just returning from the brink of madness, where I was busily preparing the large paper, now a small book, for printing, binding, and turning in to the appropriate authorities. At the same time, I've been writing all these goofy essays for law school aps, which has exhausted all my creative power for weeks now. And then, somewhere in my blogging hiatus, there was an eight-day Thanksgiving trip to my in-laws in Wisconsin. Though I took my laptop with me, all the great Midwest hospitality I enjoyed in the Big W. kept my blood-to-alcohol-to-milkfat ratio far too high for intelligent web discourse.

So, finally I'm back. The professional report is now signed, sealed, and delivered to the UT Tower, and thus I almost offficially have a Master of Public Affairs degree-- the M.P.Aff. I'll put the whole report online in the next day or so. For anyone who's interested, I would quite humbly recommend it as a short introduction to the issues surrounding medical savings accounts (MSAs), as well as flexible spending accounts (FSAs), and the new health reimbursement arrangements (HRAs). If you're not particularly interested in health care policy, it might also function well as a treatment for insomnia.

Promise to write more shortly. Really, I mean it!
