I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d hoped to get more blogging in tonight but you know what they say about the best-laid plans.<\/p>\n
Anyway, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m out of here in the morning for a weekend retreat with my fiancee and her family. I will not have internet access, so if you must find out my opinion on something, track me down in a cabin at Beavers Bend State Park<\/a> in Middle-of-Freakin\u00e2\u20ac\u2122-Nowhere, Oklahoma.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll be doing some light hiking, keeping an eye out for bald eagles and probably a large amount of napping and reading. For reading materials, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m taking Thunder Run: The Armored Strike to Capture Baghdad<\/a>, Hard America, Soft America: Competition vs. Coddling and the Battle for the Nation’s Future<\/a>, and Ghost Wars: The Secret History of the CIA, Afghanistan, and bin Laden, from the Soviet Invasion to September 10, 2001<\/a> (the latter with a small sense of obligation to In the Bullpen<\/a>‘s Chad Evans). Which one I actually crack will depend on my mood at the time. <\/p>\n Blogging will resume probably Sunday or Monday, depending on the Super Bowl and my energy level. \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcTil then \u00e2\u20ac\u00a6<\/p>\n Out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d hoped to get more blogging in tonight but you know what they say about the best-laid plans.
