(Rampant cynicism follows. You've been warned.)
As you may have noticed, I am not by nature an optimistic and cheerful person, all things considered. The past few years have done little to . . .

Tuesday is traditionally a fairly slow day for me - in part, because Tuesday is the day my column is due, so I try not to clutter it up with too much other stuff. Of course, sometimes, real-world concerns . . .
