The Blog: A compendium of thoughts on politics, world affairs, economics, pop culture and social issues, from the center right perspective of me a University of Virginia graduate who spent a career in the world's greatest Navy keeping my mouth shut about politics and social issues (ok, publicly keeping it shut). Those days are over! I've also invited a few friends to join in, so pull up a chair and chime in where you will. Keep it clean, civil, concise and relevant.
The Fish: The fish is a "coat of arms" for the blog, symbolizing three formative influences in the life of the blog founder. The first is his experience at the University of Virginia--symbolized most importantly by the fish itself, or a caricature of a "Wahoo", the fish we have acquired as an informal nickname. Additionally there is the sword, the sword of a Cavalier. It is not wielded in a threatening manner, as this is a civil blog. But it is there, should it be needed. Secondly, there is the influence of 21 years in the Navy--symbolized by the anchor on the Wahoo's fin (and again, the sword) . Finally, there is the bowler, tuxedo, and monocle, symbols of a refined, intellectual conservatism, or what I seek to encourage here.
The Policy: I take FULL responsibility ONLY for what I write. I do not take responsibility, nor will I be held responsible, for what my guest bloggers write or for what those who offer comments write. I will occasionally exercise my right to edit/delete both blog posts and comments if they do not meet my view of what clean, civil, concise and relevant mean.

I "delay" posted something yesterday that showed up this morning on this topic--took it offline because you had already posted this.
Clips like this one make me sorry I don't agree with the man. There was some funny stuff here, and good timing.
Perhaps he'll come around.
"Perhaps he'll come around.." You just keep hoping there CW... I wouldn't be running to the betting window with that "perhaps" ifn' I wuz you.
...and now...early morning duck hunt, breakfast, and pontificating complete...I believe I'll retire for a nap...ya'll let me know how it turns out.
John--just trying (vainly) to be funny--the suggestion being that a little ole blogger on the Eastern Shore could lure The One from his path.....
