How eldritch it is that the American People
drown silently like the proverbial frog,
yet have never asked for the credentials or accounting
of the scorpions who walk over them.

The democrat primary’s eldritch
A communist versus a Hell witch
The republican side
Has been nasty and snide
It makes every fiber and cell twitch

She was once described as having a face for radio and a voice for newsprint.

She’s been sick, looks like maybe colon cancer.

That game last night had a little bit of everything, huh?

Goalies getting poked in the face with their teammate’s stick. Shorthanded goal. Puck to the face. Two penalties called on one team at the same time (and one of those a 4 minute one). Defenseman robbing a goal from a player with an entire half of a net unguarded. Empty net hat trick. And Crosby getting fed the puck between and behind two desperately lunging defensemen.

She wrote about being sick. Tried to figure out what...colon cancer was a comment after the article. Not sure about that.
