The husband thinks, and I agree, that maybe the Senate should get a visit from any middle school AV department to upgrade their microphones. They’re huge and strange and unbecoming a superpower.  Then the elementary school kids can teach the Senators how to use PowerPoint so they can dispense with the ridiculous poster board visual aids of the sort I made in 1986 for a speech about Edgar Allan Poe.

Congressional Republican bluster over microscopic amounts of pork relative to the total stimulus package makes me think they, a) don’t really know what’s happening or  B) have no idea how to fix it or C) get their advice from the Joe the Plummer.

PS: I should note that I am not an economist and in fact I barely made it out of pre-calculus in high school and took “math for English majors” in college.
