It looked like a nasty day shaping up. It started out grey and foggy and the employment report wasn't good news for President Bush or the stock market. But the market bounced back after an early (and fairly limp) sell-off. And it sounds like John Kerry, at least, was making the best of it. The sun actually came out for a while, too.
Martha Stewart didn't have a good day at all. I can't say I've paid much attention to this case. I just keep wondering how many other people have gotten away with much worse because they aren't household names. Ah, well. The price of fame. Or something.
It's Adar. We're supposed to be happy. Purim is right around the corner, immediately following this Shabbat. So why am I down in the dumps? Well, mostly, I suspect, because the really nasty cold that hit S. yesterday seems to be trying to work its way through my defenses. I'm not giving up so easily, though. If all else fails, perhaps I'll pickle it for Purim.
Shabbat Shalom.
