I’M NOT GOING ANYWHERE over Christmas weekend, so blogging will continue, though probably at a reduced pace. Thanks to the folks who suggested that I take the weekend off, but honestly as long as I’m around a computer it’s not that much trouble.

Since portability is less of an issue, I’ve started reading Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell, and so far (I’m about 100+ pages into it) I’m liking it very much. That may serve as a bit of a distraction, too.

UPDATE: Polipundit’s Lorie Byrd seems to be posting up a storm. And Mickey Kaus looks at the ongoing Fannie Mae scandal, which I suspect deserves more attention than it’s getting.
