Yay! The blog is back!

UPDATE
After 24 hours during which none of my posts showed, things seem to be back to normal here.

But not to worry - first there's my article on Chavez's threat to cut off oil to the EU, which you can read at Newsvine. Then there's yesterday's podcast, where Monica Showalter reminded us that Hugo's threat seems to match Putin's similar threat, too.

Later today I'll have another article at NJ Voices.

And then there's Dame Edna, who always refers to "possums", too.

Larwyn's been keeping up with things, and she's sent a truckload of links - here are a few:
The FHA time bomb

The Federal Housing Administration – the very agency the Bush Administration and Congress trumpet as the solution to the mortgage crisis – has announced that it suffered a $4.6 billion loss last year. This is one of the worst financial performances ever for the government's multibillion-dollar mortgage insurer.

Seriously folks, seeing how government does things, do you really want to turn over your health care to them?

Sen. Kent Conrad, (D-N.D.) is angry about negative publicity on his beach cottage, while Sen. Chris Dodd (D-Conn.) let his lender write the bailout bill.
