Casual Observation

As promised, I ignored politics this morning. My kids finally put together a solid all around soccer game. Last week, they came back from a 3-0 deficit to win 5-4, which was satisfying. This week, they built on a 4-3 half time lead and won 13-3, which was a whole lot more satisfying. Near the end, I was trying without success to figure out some combination that would prevent them from scoring. But they were still executing set plays we worked on in practice three weeks ago. Excellent stuff.

I’m too busy this afternoon to set aside time to write long pieces, but I’d write about Manafort if I did have the time. I have a good piece on him banging around in my head.
