Better later than never

Up early and getting ready to drive to LAX for a flight to Ixtapa. No, I've never heard of it, either. Odd that I've been all over the states, plus Australia, New Zealand and much of Europe, but hardly ever to Mexico: two day trips in 1963 (when I was a teenager from New Jersey on a family camping summer) and a drive down to Rosarita from San Diego in 1998 or so (when my excuse for not staying longer wasn't as good).

Anyway, where I'm going is up the coast from Acapulco.

I'll be back late Saturday. Then we finish moving on Sunday. Right now the only moving we've mostly finished is my office. This is my first blog from there. Less room than the old place, but a much nicer house.

Hate to leave right after almost settling in, but duty calls. See ya on the back side.

Parting bonus links: Britt's Lever Long Enough to Supress the World and The Revolution Will Be Engineered. Also Jay Rosen's What Time is it in Political Journalism? Love those longform bloggers. And for balance, Richard Bennett, who adds provocative (and, for me, sometimes helpful) comments to many places, including Dr. Weinberger's latest, on the Echo Chamber matter.
