		<description><![CDATA[Today&#8217;s New York Times carries a story in its &#8220;politics&#8221; section that raised red flags in my mind, but apparently not in reporter Christopher Maag&#8217;s&#8230; The title alone, &#8220;Inquiry in Ohio Could Hurt Obama Vote,&#8221; might seem to suggest a political motivation for the inquiry, and the details of the story only heighten the question of whether the inquiry might be politically motivated&#8211;the inquiry targets the top Democratic Party members in Cuyahoga County, the most populous and Democratic-leaning county in Ohio. To be sure, the reporter dances around the issue: “Kerry won big in Cuyahoga County, but it wasn’t enough,”&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wow, it&#8217;s been forever since I posted! But a lot has been happening IRL, so perhaps I can be excused for my appalling lack of attention to this blog. Perhaps. First, and foremost, the summer of joy: I sold a story!!!!! My first ever published story, &#8220;MarsBound&#8221; will appear in the anthology Ages of Wonder edited by Julie E. Czerneda and Rob St. Martin!! It will be published by Daw sometime in 2008. Then we paid off the house! WHOO HOO! Happy, happy, joy, joy! Dancing in the streets! (Well, on the patio, but that&#8217;s outside, so it&#8217;s sorta like&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[She furtively looked to the left... nobody there. To the right... no, no one there either. Maybe just a little one would be ok. Just enough to stop the shakes.  It needn't take long, she thought guiltily. I can get back to work later, it'll wait a bit. And besides, I'll probably work better if I can settle my mind on it...]]></description>

Zzzrtss couldn't think much of anything -- most of his mind had fallen off in the controlled crash he'd managed after being attacked by a creature bigger than his ship. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Emma went to get a cup of coffee while the revised draft of her story was printing. One more read-through, just for typos, and it should be ready to send. She grabbed the pages out of the tray, and headed out to the patio. She'd learned the hard way not to do a read-through at her desk... she'd start changing things and fixing typos and never make it all the way through. Let alone get any sense at all of how it flowed.]]></description>

Originally written in 1997, it shows that some things never change. *** Lord Distractor&#8217;s beeper went off. He was needed. Again. Sometimes, he reflected, it would be nice to just take some time off, lay on the beach, perhaps read a trashy novel. But, there was work to be done. Someone was headed toward a cliff, and it was up to him to prevent them from going over it. Lord Distractor sympathized with&#8230;]]></description>
