Let’s Call It the “Sinatra Syndrome” 0
Shorter Charlotte Rampell: Pols say, “It’s my way and I’ll get it if want to.”
Afterthought:
Rampell must have received her official Villager membership card and secret decoder ring. She just could not resist starting out with, “Both sides do it,” even though they don’t. Remember, a difference in degree can be large enough to indeed be a difference in kind.
Sidebar Sadness–Sticky 0
The sidebar of this blog, which is normally over there on the right, suddenly doesn’t like me. It has disappeared. While I troubleshoot this, you can view the sidebar by clicking the title to view any single post and the sidebar will reappear. I suspect this may take a couple of days to figure out, because I am not going to tear my hair out over this.
Later:
I reduced the number of posts showing on the front page from 20 to 15 and the sidebar is back. We’ll see what happens.
I’m unsticking this from the front page, as the situation seems stabilized.
