Back From Hiatus

I haven't posted in a while because I've spent every spare ounce of creative effort and time working on the recent elections.  What a month!  I can't even begin to describe how gratifying the experience has been!

Anyway, I'm sorry for the extended time off, but my goal is to get back in the groove of regular blogging over the course of the next few weeks.  As you might expect, I have some thoughts about the elections, the strategies employed, the outcomes, and the post-election "analysis" by many of the so-called pundits and newspaper reporters -- much of which is disappointingly superficial and racially charged.  And therefore ultimately way off base. 

As I gather my thoughts, I wanted in the meantime to share a couple of quotes/thoughts that have been on my mind in recent days:

• ‎"I love it when a plan comes together." -- John "Hannibal" Smith, The A-Team

• Oldest coaching ploy in the book:  When you get outcoached, and your team gets outplayed...distract the fans by yelling at the refs.
