Quickies
Still no word from my muse, still no column, but I had a funny thought tonight, so I thought I'd post it here in lieu of column (or until I can get one written).
On my other blog today, I posted a rant about racism in the media coverage of the New Orleans tragedy. I railed about how after years of supposedly equal rights, the media still presumes that, in the same situation, whites are behaving nobly and African Americans are behaving criminally. But it was driven home to me as I was doing laundry that I can't fairly cast the first stone. Why? Because I let the whites go first.

I think you mean racism. Sexism is prejudice against gender.

Wow, it's been a long day.
Thanks, you're right, I'll correct it.
Leave it to me not to write a column and then go and spoil the one joke I DO post.
