Dow's First 100 Days.
In other developments, Lloyd Hara will be sworn in as King County Assessor Tuesday afternoon. For the most part, his opponents in the 5-way special election have been supportive in the transition effort and relieved they lost.

I Hate You, Garrison Keillor.
w7ngman @ 27 -- How do you expect anyone here to now how you reached whatever age you are thinking the expression was "wail on"?
The primary variant is "wale on", i.e., to beat as to raise a wale (or weal); "whale on" is an accepted variant; "wail on" is adopted by the Urban Dictionary, i.e., people who can't spell and don't care.
Marvelous column by Keillor, btw.

The Obama Hangover.
Wherever you stand on this one, do yourself a favor and see "Obama On My Mind" at Langston Hughes Ctr.
A little something for everyone -- deflating the hyperbole, revalidating the idealism, and recalling all the temporarily insane characters (but you weren't one, were you?) you rubbed elbows with in that campaign or any other campaign.
And Kiley -- this means you.
