Happy Tuesday morning!

1.We're back on the Royal Travel Fund bandwagon. Duchess Isabella has asked me to help coordinate things for this reign. If you have goods or servuices you would like to donate, please contact me privately at bill@goonbox.com. I think it weould be cool to get donations from folks in other kingdoms. ;)

2. Anyone familiar with the Vermony mystery author Archer Mayor? I have a phone interview with him this morning for a story for the weekly newspaper I am working with.

3. The forecast for all week here in the North Country is temperatures in the 60s and the possibility of rain daily.

4. Again, I hope Joe Torre doesn't get tossed under the bus for this one. But wouldn't it be cool if the Mets hired him and they won a World Series?

5. My interest in hockey barely has a pulse.

Tuesday night hanging out . . .

1. I am going to try to use the word "bailiwick" in my interviews tomorrow for the director of fratternities and sororities position? Are there any words you think I should use? alethea_eastrid suggested "scrotum." But only if I did not want the job. Would I be getting up at 6:30 a.m. if I *didn't* want the job?

2. It was raining so hard earlier tonight that A. had to ask me if the water in the sink was still running.

3. Hey, cat_9! Archer Mayor said he liked your idea about issuing one of his books to each new Vermonter and suggested the state legislature should pass it. He was a great interview!

4. evilnicola and I simply should not be allowed in the same place at the same time. It's kinda scary. Wait until you get a load of her new glasses. Oh, and she loves me. She has sprung for Dunkin' Donuts coffee for me twice in two days. And we keep completing each other's  . . .

5. Earlier this week, I usedbaronessmartha and rufinia as my tact officers. I asked them if it would be appropriate to post something. I am not gonna tell you what they said. ;) I would have asked classics_cat, but she was not around.

6. No one ever uses Liam as their tact officer.

A burning question . . .
