So I just played a game of Churchill Solitaire.

Yes, the app that Donald Rumsfeld put out.  Anyway: I downloaded it from the Apple Store and tried a game of it. The game itself is good, but I wonder if it’s really optimized for an iPod: I had a problem with the buttons from time to time.  I assume that it’s because the app is designed for Jesus Phones, which I believe have bigger screens.

Still, it’s a good, tricky game and the presentation is pretty slick.  You probably should give it a whirl, if you have an iPhone.

This is Hillary Clinton’s problem, in a nutshell.

We know two things:

  1. Hillary Clinton should be indicted.  No, seriously. She is long past the point where most people would have been indicted.  If her name was, say, Martha Libby – and, more importantly, if she was not the presumptive Democratic front-runner – then Hillary Clinton would be rapidly approaching her trial date by now. If she is not indicted, there is going to be a godawful feces-storm that will stretch out into the term of the next administration – and quite possibly the administration after that.
  2. Hillary Clinton will not be indicted.

Here’s the thing: I don’t know a partisan Republican who is professionally upset that Hillary Clinton will not be indicted.  We all want her to be indicted, sure.  And we’re personally appalled that she won’t be.  But in terms of our jobs we can all see the silver lining in that particular cloud.  And we won’t feel guilty about it, either.  After all, it’s not like we can indict her anyway.

In the Mail: Death & Taxes.

death and taxesThis was a gift from a reader: he has a company (Lesser Gnome) that does roleplaying games, and he thought that I might like to play with his new game supplement Death & Taxes. As it turns out, he was correct; heck, my gaming group is even doing a campaign that’s compatible with this one, and I think that my DM would be happy to run a game from it for us. I’d have asked her already, but the snow. Ach, the snow…

Anyway. It’s always nice to have awesome readers. And check out Lesser Gnome, if you care to.

PS: Look! I have a cat! …And that’s pretty much the cat’s default state. He was a stray, and now he’s inside, and he has no intention of being a stray ever, ever again.

PPS: Yes, we’ve had the cat for a while. But the cat has only recently decided to doze on the ottoman on a regular basis.
