This has been a rough week. One of my employees introduced a virus into the workforce, which has proved to be only slightly less virulent than the "Black Death". I have been recovering but, outside of the occasional comment, I have not felt much like writing this week.
The Relic's have decided to decamp tomorrow for Florida. We will be surveying the damage done in the wake of the Florida primary and, since we are visiting family, will have an opportunity to debrief some of the deranged Boca residents who voted for Amnesty John. Although we had hoped that FEMA would assist with the much-needed mental health resources, we find that they are not even on the ground yet.
We will, of course, attempt direct interventions and provide counseling as needed, but since we are not health professionals, I fear this may be inadequate.
We will be carrying as many copies of the pocket constitution, pictures of what a fence looks like, as well as reference materials from such forgotten authors as Adam Smith, F.A. Hayek, and Ronald Reagan. Sadly, we will be limited by weight restrictions and there exists the possibility that TSA will not allow some of these materials on the airplane. Regardless, I will be commenting and blogging from sunny Florida beginning on Monday.
Excellent article by Brett Winterble of Human Events today.
