Rambling Rhodes

In case you were wondering

Yes, I've backed away from political blogging for the most part, and here's why:

- Burnout, basically, because I can only state and defend my opinions so many times; past that point, it becomes pretty much yelling at the wind.

- For too many people right now, politics has become a religion, and I don't feel like being one of those people.

- No side is 100 percent right or 100 percent wrong, and I'm tired of pointing that out (and, yes, I realize I'm more conservative than liberal: thank God).

- I have a house that needs serious attention.

- Let's face it, political discussion isn't one of my bigger strengths. Now, bathroom humor, that's where I shine.

- It doesn't pay.

- E-mail and comment trolls annoy me.

- Joshua Norton.

- It detracts from my awesomeness.

- It's not an election year.

- I largely don't care right now.

- Karl Rove told me to stop, and I always listen to Karl Rove, as should you.

- disappointed that there was a high ranking White House staffer nicknamed "Scooter."

- Mitch Berg, James Lileks and Glenn Reynolds continue to largely speak on my behalf, as per our contractual agreement.

- I'm kinda into Jiu-Jitsu right now.

- Impending snowfall sucks.

- Hey! Look over there! A duck!
