Finding Hillary Support, the Goose

This and That on a Rainy Day:

-from the NY Times: Gloria Steinem writes well in her support of Hillary Clinton and wonders at the sexism that is ever present in our society. She wants Hillary to win the nomination but if Barack does she will volunteer for his election. She also says that it might take eight years with Hillary as president and then eight more with Barack as president to clean up the mess left by you know who. Good read - take a minute and go read the whole thing.

-also from the NY Times: Elliot Spitzer agrees with me here in believing that the Clinton campaign is far from dead - way too much of the primary process still to develop after today's NH voting.

-Goose Gossage elected to the baseball Hall of Fame. Remember him? The linked article says he is the fifth relief pitcher to be elected. Know the other four? I don't though two are probably the Cubbie who made relief pitching important and then the Oakland Athletic star who went from starting to relieving and did well in both areas. (Bruce Sutter is the Cubbie. Is Rollie Fingers the Athletic? Hoyt Wilhelm is another from way long ago. And the other? Expect Marty will know...)

-Update: No, it wasn't Rollie Fingers I was thinking about, it was Dennis Eckersley!

-it's raining hard here on the hill just north of Loogootee. Time for a movie, Diane says. From Netflix: Winged Migration, one suggested by Marty. Oops - the bloody disc is broken. Ain't that the pits...
