At a time when more than a few unhappy liberals in the United States are rumbling about moving north, the expatriates in Nelson, British Columbia, are proof it can be done.

By Mike Dougherty, Post-Bulletin, Rochester, Minn.  Jun. 22--thingsthatwere.blogspot.com   I love old stuff, and this blog has scads of pix of old stuff that once was. Some of it is still around. Lots of it isn't or is in a serious state of disrepair. Pretty cool stuff. Check it out.

Went to Parc Jarry once. Don't remember who won or lost (that's before I decided to keep score at every game I attend, no matter when and where), but I do recall that Le Grand Orange hit a home run and it was a festive night, so I will assume Les Expos sent the folks home happy.

It is 4:30 a.m. on Saturday, and my wife, Sara, and I are driving up Georgia Avenue toward Olney. Our destination: Shoppers Food Warehouse on Route 108. Our mission: to get our flu shots. The big question: Will we arrive in time?

Welcome to the heart and soul of America. A sign greets visitors outside a truck stop with a resounding: &quot;Let freedom reign.&quot; There is one white, wooden evangelical church and lots of Bush-Cheney posters along the roadside.

It is with the greatest pleasure that I write to you today. Our successes of late have been many and profound, and your advice has helped further our cause immensely. As Our Father Below requested, I have compiled a list of our recent successes and victories. It is difficult to express in words how excited I am at our prospects.

Tycho:  Our newest comic is available here, regarding the blogger that Nintendo fired recently.  As usual, Gabriel and I disagree absolutely on virtually every point of this discussion, my own perspective favoring greater liberty while he presents a naked defense of fascism.  The two universal axioms we were both able to agree upon were that:

After reading about laws around the country banning panhandling, I think it is a wonderful idea for our state.  It would be great to make it retroactive to when Dave Checketts came begging.  Jeff Ayers  Kaysville  (c) 2007 Deseret News (Salt Lake City).

First, I'd like to say congratulations. Prior to last night, I had been only cautiously optimistic about your chances of taking the House. As of the time I am writing this, you are on the cusp of taking senate as well. In the world of politics, expectations are as real as the raw numbers, and you have certainly exceeded mine and many others. A quick scan of the over-dramatic flailing on conservative blogs and the despondent tone of Fox News fills me and many others with a profound sense of schadenfreude.  Enjoy your victory, but enjoy it quickly. For tomorrow you inherit the corn-flecked shit sandwich currently known as our government. Here are some things you can do to further redeem yourselves in our eyes...

In my last blog post, I mentioned the work on rubinius (then at a 0.7 release and now at 0.8) and JRuby.  I also promised I&#8217;d follow up on them.  Here&#8217;s what&#8217;s been going on so far.
