I told you Sarah Palin has an unnatural attachment to the word “also.” What’s up with that?

Hello! I'm Alice, which is my real name (most of the other names here have been changed, though, to protect the innocent). I live in an almost-100-year-old house in downtown Chattanooga, TN with my first husband, Ralph, and a cockapoo named Nonnie (the moniker comes from a Laurens van der Post book). Our daughter, Emmie, plays a supporting role on the blog -- she's off being a student, but she pops in often enough to keep things interesting.
I originally hale from Batavia, NY, a quiet little town in rural western New York. Ralph and I met while attending college in Carlisle, PA, and then moved on to Chapel Hill, NC together before finally settling in Tennessee. Other places we've lived in long enough to have a mailing address include London and San Francisco.
This blog is about a lot of things -- the places I visit, things I cook, people I meet, photos I take, things I read, and -- of course, politics. I'm an unrepentant progressive, liberal, lefty, euro-loving, educated elitist and I'm looking forward to an administration that doesn't raise my blood pressure quite as often as the outgoing one did...

It is a wonder you didn’t die from poisoning.
How did McCain find someone stupider than Bush for his running mate? I wonder if she even knows the meaning of also, because she missuses it half the time. I guess it is just she wants to continue talking over anyone else.

Don’t forget “maverick” That’s my favorite

I would have thought “maverick,” “Alaska,” and “great” would have been more prominent…

I can forgive stupid, although I think voting for it is dangerous. Mean and stupid, now, that I don’t want to have over for coffee and cake.

I was also tempted to play a little drinking game with the debate, but I forgot to buy the booze necessary. Whoops. Guess I just saved my poor liver a world of pain.
