I don’t know why someone who doesn’t bother to identify him or herself but merely posts an anonymous comment would expect me to care if that person finds the blog boring. This is not a commercial endeavor and I am doing it primarily for myself. If I cared about hit counts and ad revenue then I’d be posting stories about sexual encounters and pictures of naked women. Actually I’ve never quite understood why I continue to have as many readers as I do after changing over to “Redux.” If you find the blog boring, I’m not upset, not going to suddenly change course and change content.

In other boring news, trapped in the elevator (or “lift”) in my building for somewhere between 30 and 60 minutes today. No phone service in my elevator so could not do email or internet. Did not want to listen to iPod since I wanted to be able to hear if anyone was trying to contact me. Cold in there so did not sit down on the floor. Alone so no one to talk to or abuse or get abused by. I decided I would ignore the “no smoking” sign.

Eventually they had to call the Fire Department (or is it “brigade”) who managed to get me out pretty fast once they arrived.

Even though I’m not a Republican, I’m quite happy that McCain won in Florida and that Giuliani had such a poor showing. McCain is the most reasonable of all the Republican contenders and, given the Democrats’ penchant for nominating losers, would certainly be better than Romney or Huckabee. And that’s why the Dems were hoping that Romney would win, because it would be easier to run against his extremist positions and record of flipflopping on a large number of issues. The Clintons’ meltdown in South Carolina and the Kennedys’ subsequent endorsements of Obama mean that the campaign continues to be an interesting one to follow.
