Lately I've been joking about taking up vigilante editing. whiting out such travesties as those obnoxious apostrophes on the name placards in front of houses.  Well, it looks like someone already took the job -- and paid for it.  Ouch.

I think Obama has a good running mate in Biden.  I still wish he had chosen Clark, but it could have been worse, and Joe should knock a few of Obama's "weaknesses" off the table.  I'm kind of glad Matt and I will be camping during the Democratic Convention, as I've already got election fatigue.  Which reminds me, I need to find a way to get my hands on some snorkels for the Channel Islands.  Wheeeeee.

Congrats to all the Olympians, medalists or not.  Until proofreading becomes an Olympic sport, I'll never be among them, but I can really relate to their stories.
