Rayne Today: March 2007
http://rayne-today.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Looking for my dharma in spite of the weather. Thursday, March 22, 2007. I have to go pick up my son from school.it just dawned on me how much I am going to have to explain to him today, about why we will see so much of the Edwards family on television this evening. Bless the Edwards, both John and Elizabeth, who've had to have important discussions of their own with their children. I thank them for the grace they've shown as an American family and wish them well. Tuesday, March 13, 2007. Sampson had bee...

Rayne Today: April 2006
http://rayne-today.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Looking for my dharma in spite of the weather. Tuesday, April 25, 2006. A shift in consciousness. Damn, I should fire the blogger who runs this site. I promised myself I would blog more often, more consistently, but it seems as if I've made too many promises of late and this was one of the first to be broken. Maybe I didn't really break my promise to myself about blogging; the experience of blogging has radically changed for me. How long will this next phase of spotty personal blogging last? Now if only ...

Rayne Today: July 2006
http://rayne-today.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Looking for my dharma in spite of the weather. Friday, July 28, 2006. Not again; another missed BlogHer. It's exploded, you know, the size of this event as well as the size of the community. Perhaps they'll finally stop with the bloody stupid question, "Where are the women bloggers? Just once I'd like somebody to ask me that to my face, though, so I could slap them and say I 'm right here, dork, and I'd like to be at BlogHer with the rest of my estrogen-rich blogging peeps. Friday, July 14, 2006. For the...

Looking for my dharma in spite of the weather. Monday, March 20, 2006. Dear Esther Dyson: BUTT OUT OF MY EMAIL. I've met Ms. Dyson. It's not the first time I've disagreed with her. She's smart, but she has a marked inability to find more than one side to an issue. Books in foreign languages, for example; what a shame there aren't more being translated to English, given the current political climate, she opined. But that's only one more perspective.what about technology? I say butt the hell out. It's ...

Looking for my dharma in spite of the weather. Tuesday, March 08, 2011. House Armed Services Committee putting on magic show. Just moments from now, the House Armed Services Committee will begin a press conference to discuss proposed legislation addressing "America’s Terrorist Detention and Prosecution Policies.". The announcement issued by the HASC's chair Rep. Buck McKeon (R-CA) says,. Under which the Defense Department has not only been chasing terrorists here and abroad but under which the U.S...

Rayne Today: August 2006
http://rayne-today.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Looking for my dharma in spite of the weather. Wednesday, August 30, 2006. Generated some buzz this week. In my line of work, I watch and measure buzz, both in the aggregate and by individual pieces of buzz. Using the same methods of observation and measurement, the fallout after Isikoff's book tells me one thing:. THEY want us to believe it's Armitage that was the source of the Plame leak. Would seek to throw Armitage on his sword, not the least of which is their partisanship. Frankly, the amount of...

Rayne Today: February 2006
http://rayne-today.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html
Looking for my dharma in spite of the weather. Tuesday, February 28, 2006. Oh pooh. I said I was going to try and post more often after opening this new blog and I've already fallen off the wagon. But I think it's part of the whole blogging experience. There are cycles of creativity and productivity and I've simply hit a low spot. A very low spot. A veritable sinkhole. It's easier to ride others' coattails; I love hanging at FireDogLake. So what about you? Is it spring where you are, inside and out?

Rayne Today: In a bit of a pickle
http://rayne-today.blogspot.com/2009/09/in-bit-of-pickle.html
Looking for my dharma in spite of the weather. Sunday, September 27, 2009. In a bit of a pickle. As I came down the stairs I heard somebody moaning in the general vicinity of the kitchen. What the hell is going on, I wondered? Standing over the kitchen island, eyes closed, murmuring to himself is my spouse. With a half-eaten jar of pickles in his hand. Oh my God, these are so good.". Bread and Butter Pickles. 25 pickling cucumbers, washed and sliced thin. 2 large onions, peeled and sliced thin. 1 Place p...

Rayne Today: An offended mother on President Obama’s speech to school kids
http://rayne-today.blogspot.com/2009/09/offended-mother-on-president-obamas.html
Looking for my dharma in spite of the weather. Monday, September 07, 2009. An offended mother on President Obama’s speech to school kids. The text of President Obama's speech. Scheduled for delivery tomorrow to public school children has been released today; I've read it. And I asked my both of my kids read it. With a bored, so-what shrug, the new sophomore said, "It's rather elementary, but I suppose it has to be since it's meant to reach elementary school kids. Like kindergartners.". What did he mean?
