Back in the Saddle

So, we were off like a relatively well oiled machine this morning. I am grateful to be back at something consistent, but hate having deadlines and living by clocks again. I am by nature a slow mover and procrastinator.
One perk, however, is getting to hear snippets of Dennis Miller as I drive the kids to school. The downside is that I then want to spend the rest of the morning listening to his show and sitting in a cozy chair with lotsa coffee handy.
This morning, I'm online (trying to have an iChat date with Europeanne, but we are experiencing technical difficulties) so I will squeeze in some blogging. What a good job I'm doing, not wasting a moment!
Dennis had S E Cupp on this morning, and I only got to hear a few minutes of her, so I'll be following up with the podcast. She is the author of Losing Our Religion, a book about the American cultural bias against Christians--written by an atheist. Dennis had her on because of this article in the New York Daily News. Her main point is that the atheists are not curious people. To them, all is decided, and only an idiot would continue to seek information on the matter. It's an easy short read and well worth a few minutes of your time.

What I think attracts me to Dennis' show is that he is funny. Quick, sharp and laugh out loud funny. And you know, that's not all that easy to do when talking politics and the state of the union.
