while they dither the world burns

I’m all for vigorous debate but how about this reporting on the New Orleans city council holding confirmation hearings for a new police chief. I don’t pretend to understand all the complexities in this complicated little-big city, but while they dither and bicker, streets remain unpaved, the drought continues, and a new Republican governor is about to drive the state hard to the right.

PS we're tired too.

 

BusySmartyPants Has Returned from Faceborkland: the Bloggening Continues

Welp, after a half-year experiment in social media, BSP has returned to its blogger roots.
I hated Faceborkland, tbh. Sure, it was easier to post links and videos and such. But the contstant pressure, the everlasting reminders to post, scareminders of lost views and declining revenues, made me feel like a failure ever single time I went to post.
For fork's sake.
BSP is back, bébé.
