Gillibrand for senate, of all people, among other things. Seems like he figures out what to do by selecting the option that pisses off most people.</p> I have no idea why Paterson’s so bad, just observe that he is.

Not that I hold any brief for Spitzer or any of his people(esp those that got themselves involved in Troopergate and Brunogate), but Paterson could really have used keeping some of the old hands around for a while and training and transitioning some people instead of throwing the baby out with the bathwater..</p> Morning Marion — as a NYS resident and political observer, I think that I can say that one of the major mistakes Paterson made when he took power was that he allowed his extreme dislike for Eliot Spitzer and anyone connected with him to extend to his throwing out all of Spitzer’s people and trying to start from scratch…right when things were going to hell in a handbasket.

Bob Herbert is off today, and Gail Collins tells us “How to Train a Governor.” She says the political free fall of Gov. David Paterson of New York isn’t from any big personal scandal. He has alienated the public just by being terrible at his job. I confess I haven’t been paying much attention to what’s been going on in New York State since I moved down here almost 20 years ago, but it seems that the state legislature hasn’t changed much… </p> <p><a href="http://mgpaquin.wordpress.com/" rel="nofollow">Here she is</a>.</p> <p>The coffee, tea and hot chocolate are ready, and I’ve got waffles with warm maple syrup this morning. Today it’s time to plant a second batch of radishes, and a few more lettuce seeds. The first radishes are coming along nicely, and the first lettuces have their first true leaves. Spring has finally decided to stay here, and that means that it’s also on its way up to you folks farther north. If you’re not familiar with him you might consider looking at Edwin Way Teale’s book “<a href="http://www.amazon.com/North-spring-naturalists-journey-American/dp/B0007HNPQC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1238242047&sr=1-1" rel="nofollow">North With the Spring</a>.” It’s lovely. Have a great day.</p> Good morning, pups. Bob Herbert is off today, and Gail Collins tells us “How to Train a Governor.” She says the political free fall of Gov.

Too late for blue birds, though. This year I’ve got to clean the boxes in the autumn, so I can put them out in February, which is what the blue bird book recommends.</p> It finally is warm enough for me to turn on the outside water, so yesterday I cleaned out my bird boxes and put them back out.
