Governor Palin has a sub-4 hour marathon to her credit and sounds like she's a pretty serious runner, but what I really like about this photo is that it brings to mind the stuff Lana Lee used to peddle out of the Night Of Joy. Say what you will about Republicans, at least they know how to keep sex dirty.

I've been gouty all spring, but on Thursday I had a full-blown attack, and finally Dr. Z came across with the real drugs. It's a five day course, but last night's dose knocked it right down, so I took the bike out for a spin. Ornithologically speaking the coolest thing I've seen this summer was the big raptor at the West Seneca campus of Houghton College, but today's adventure was nearly as good. I saw a pair of loons on the Niagara River, and was dive-bombed twice by red-winged blackbirds. They hit hard. I've been attacked by one once before, and was glad of my helmet today.
