Fri. Jul. 13th, 2012  |  Ed Raymond

Among religious wars, drug wars, civil wars, genocides, and dozens of other kinds Planet Earth remains a dangerous, fascinating place.

Politics is a messy game. Sometimes it can produce elation, listening to the bubbly slogans of the campaign trail and eating them up verbatim.

Fri. Jul. 13th, 2012

I’m having trouble thinking up a proper column today. I’ve tried all my usual tactics for brainstorming good ideas: Scouring the Facebook pages of my friends to steal all their interesting stories. Pouring whiskey into my eyeballs. Drinking paint and then writing about the hospital visit. None of these standard journalistic methods worked this week. I’m still stumped.

Fri. Jul. 13th, 2012

First, I have to tell you that the Oakland (CA) city council has called out double-dealing Goldman Sachs and is terminating their SWAP contracts. We bailed out the banks.
