http://iowaennui.blogspot.com/2006/10/steve-king-fence-and-2008.html
Things Going Round and Round. Thoughts for the LGs and washed lists. Friday, October 27, 2006. Steve King, the Fence and 2008. I doubt there is any need for editorial comment on this Radio Iowa. Congressman Steve King, a Republican from western. Is celebrating. "I'm really pleased that the president has signed the Secure Fence Act," King says. "That's an issue that I've been working on. I first raised that issue here in. Steve King for Senate! But for Steve, I might just change my mind. The quest for a t...

Things Going Round & Round: KinderRules
http://iowaennui.blogspot.com/2006/11/kinderrules.html
Things Going Round and Round. Thoughts for the LGs and washed lists. Wednesday, November 29, 2006. Since this blog is my own unique form of relevant irrelevance, I thought it might be nice to go over a few rules for kindergarten. From Mrs. Pohlmeyer’s Kindergarten webpage. We are always good listeners. We are helpers, not hurters. We are walkers, not runners. We are builders, not breakers. We are talkers, not shouters. We are quiet workers, not players. Posted by Iowa Ennui @ 11/29/2006. This was really ...

Things Going Round & Round: Post Election, Part II
http://iowaennui.blogspot.com/2006/11/post-election-part-ii.html
Things Going Round and Round. Thoughts for the LGs and washed lists. Tuesday, November 14, 2006. Post Election, Part II. As one side gets down to the business of governing, the other side is still ruminating in that kind of old man in a moth eaten sweater and smelly chair with an odd fixation for keeping time with a clicker: on, off, on, off, on off. yeah, it’s a little sad about what happened. Despite some new post-election angst about the GOP early voting and absentee program. When Congress quit work w...

Things Going Round & Round: On The Issues
http://iowaennui.blogspot.com/2006/11/on-issues.html
Things Going Round and Round. Thoughts for the LGs and washed lists. Friday, November 10, 2006. A new website to check out that tracks the direct quotes of public and political leaders. You can search by name, by topic and/or by geography. It's user friendly and fun.well, not so fun if you happen to be a presidential candidate with a variety of positions on a couple of key issues that might offend some "base". When will all of this irrational political litmus-testing end? Posted by Iowa Ennui @ 11/10/2006.

Things Going Round & Round: It's almost over & my two cents.
http://iowaennui.blogspot.com/2006/11/its-almost-over-my-two-cents.html
Things Going Round and Round. Thoughts for the LGs and washed lists. Monday, November 06, 2006. It's almost over and my two cents. The weekend editorials and pundit columns have covered the basics: nasty. An accurate picture of the campaigns on both sides. The phone calls and door knocking campaign geeks are out in full force putting as happy a spin on their candidates as is possible. The candidates are making their last sales pitches hoping that they’re closing at the right time. Bloggers didn’t bite on...

Things Going Round & Round: Seasick
http://iowaennui.blogspot.com/2006/11/seasick.html
Things Going Round and Round. Thoughts for the LGs and washed lists. Wednesday, November 08, 2006. I think they call this a sea change election. Whether the change is directed towards some new set of priorities and goals or a reaction to the perceived dysfunction is certainly speculative. The analysis is as varied as the audience:. Keying in their progressive self important take (that’s unexpected); the Republican establishment. Minimizing and making nice; and the somewhat startled appearing Democrats.

Things Going Round & Round: Inspiration Deficit
http://iowaennui.blogspot.com/2006/10/inspiration-deficit.html
Things Going Round and Round. Thoughts for the LGs and washed lists. Monday, October 30, 2006. Okay, I am at a complete loss on coming up with an idea for a post. If you, a friend, your mother, the neighbor across the fence have a topic(s) please send it along. Then again, it's okay if nothing comes to mind. I'm sure I'll think up something in a few days. Posted by Iowa Ennui @ 10/30/2006. No one cares what you think. Don't you know that? Wow, the anonymous hate mongers are out in force today.

Things Going Round & Round: The Turtles Among Us
http://iowaennui.blogspot.com/2006/12/turtles-among-us_08.html
Things Going Round and Round. Thoughts for the LGs and washed lists. Friday, December 08, 2006. The Turtles Among Us. Just thought I might point people in Royce's. Direction. He's thinking about it. On recommendation, I'm reading R.W. Emerson. I don't have one, not enough email, I'm not really consequential in a transactional sort of way. I just thought the WSJ article. Friend in absentia, and wonder if the kid(s) (sorry M'ville, it's not going to change) gave you a sideways glance that said it all.
