I prefer to end the week on an upnote, what with this being shorts and flip-flop weather and the natural optimism sunshine engenders…

And yes, I’m well aware that I didn’t properly size this to fit the allotted space, but somehow that just seemed fitting.  I don’t know about grandstanding politicians or PR flacks, but this makes me want to kick everyone’s butt.  Sheez…
