Mullings' 10th Anniversary
Rich Galen
Monday March 17, 2008
- "� Some Things Never Change ...": Founding Sponsor Bill McInturff was the first to point out that I did not join GOPAC in February 2008, but in February 1998. As I wrote back, it's good to get the daily typo out of the way early!
Norm Ornstein was the first to report the next one "2009" instead of 1999, so that has been fixed as well.
- "� Different Words ...": From the Oxford English Dictionary page:
The Second Edition of the Oxford English Dictionary contains full entries for 171,476 words in current use, and 47,156 obsolete words. To this may be added around 9,500 derivative words included as subentries. Over half of these words are nouns, about a quarter adjectives, and about a seventh verbs; the rest is made up of interjections, conjunctions, prepositions, suffixes, etc. These figures take no account of entries with senses for different parts of speech (such as noun and adjective).
- "� The Iraq Travelogues ...": Read them from the bottom up. They are a true account of what I saw and the people I was blessed to meet in Iraq.
- "� The First Mullings ...": Here's a link to the MS Word doc which is the first MULLINGS - March 11, 1998.
Note that the bullets were very topical and were written in a shorthand which reporters covering the daily political events in Washington would understand.
- "� Spring Training Travelogues ...": For those who may have missed them, here are the links to the Spring Training Travelogus:
Friday - Nats vs. Marlins
Saturday - Nats vs. Astros
Friday - Nats vs. Indians
Mullfoto of the Day
From the Iraq Travelogues. The caption was:
On my way to trade flak jackets, I found this tragic scene. A plastic chair. Shot trying to escape.
Catchy Caption of the Day
Actual Caption:
Russian policemen chat while guarding the entrance to Moscow's Red Square. Russian president-elect Dmitry Medvedev's Siberian tomcat Dorotheus will be prowling around the Kremlin once his master is officially inaugurated on May 7.
Hell, we had that in the White House for eight years. We called our tomcat "Bill Clinton."
