Sam Bee moves to Wednesday next week so that she has a couple of days to encapsulate the debate which will start at 9 pm Monday and last for 90 painful minutes or so. Fly away races and seasonal change have sucked out my sense of humor, nothing seems very funny at the moment except …

Trevor and Larry are in repeats. Sam Bee had new last night, but I was traveling. Stephen is turning in another normal week, alas I have morning activities and can’t hang.
