Some day, Monsieur Godot, more words will appear at this site.  For now, the work time for this writer has been overwhelmed with business concerns &amp;#8211; Pajamas business obviously. I spent the last few days Sleepless in DC (hanging out with Rich Miniter does that to people) playing a supervisory role for our coverage of the DLA Piper pre-election breakfast at the Willard Hotel, some of which is already up over at PJ.  (About the Willard:  definitely a great atmospheric place to stay, especially on company money.  The rubric &amp;#8220;lobbyist&amp;#8221; came from the Nineteenth Century schmoozers making deals behind the pillars in the hotel&amp;#8217;s neo-Classical lobby.  I made a few paltry attempts myself&amp;#8230;. but enough about that. )]]&gt;</description><pubDate>Thu, 26 Oct 2006 05:00:03 -0400</pubDate><creator xmlns="dc">&lt;![CDATA[Roger L.
