Read more ...I just heard from the head of Sentinel Publishing, who tells me that “we should see some improvement” in the stock situation by mid-week. Another 15,000 copies were printed early last week, but the snow storms delayed shipments. I’ll keep you posted as I learn more.
Read more ...Folks, it’s great to be alive. I have to fess up: back here in August I predicted that health care was a done deal, and that all that remained was a “dance” to see which Dems would get to opt out for their own reelection purposes. Well, in a matter of a month, a historic [...]
