For some time I have followed flippin’ amsterdam’s blog, a blog self-discribed as his “take on the Pythonesque experience of living in Amsterdam, NY with excursions into politics, economics, rationality, banality, lunacy, idiocy and policy.”
After a brief hiatus, I am glad to find that he is back, with his new blog at www.sassafrasjournal.com.
I suggest stopping by, saying hi, and join the friendly discussions!
