There are so many topics running around in my head, and I’m staring at my screen trying to put together a coherent thought on any of them. Part of that’s fatigue, and part of that is watching the online train wreck that is the kerfluffle over John Edwards’ campaign bloggers. I’m waiting to see how it all turns out, and I’m stunned that there hasn’t been a more definitive resolution.
Then in local politics you have the mayoral campaign finance controversy, and in the state there’s the governor’s proposal to use an increased sales tax in part to fund a reduction on property taxes. I almost welcome the idea of having an 8% sales tax in Philadelphia, because then New Yorkers who come down here and compute their tip by doubling the tax on their check will come closer to leaving a good-sized tip.
And with that thought rattling through my head, I think I need to step away from the ol’ PC for a bit.
