In case the wingnuts were wondering how God feels about Barack Obama, here’s the forecast for Denver tomorrow night (that middle column is the chance of precipitation — so much for the power of hateful prayer):

About
Hello! I'm Alice, which is my real name (most of the other names here have been changed, though, to protect the innocent). I live in an almost-100-year-old house in downtown Chattanooga, TN with my first husband, G-Dog (who is from New Canaan, CT), and a cockapoo named Nonnie (the moniker comes from a Laurens van der Post book). We have one kid (that we know of) -- a daughter, Emmie, who plays a supporting role on the blog. She's off being a student, but she pops in often enough to keep things interesting.
I originally hale from Batavia, NY, a quiet little town in rural western New York. G-Dog and I met while attending college in Carlisle, PA, and then moved on to Chapel Hill, NC together before finally settling in Tennessee. Other places we've lived in long enough to have a mailing address include London and San Francisco.
This blog is about a lot of things -- the places I visit, things I cook, people I meet, photos I take, things I read, and -- of course, politics. I'm an unrepentant, arugula-eating, progressive, liberal, lefty, euro-loving, educated elitist and I'm looking forward to an administration that doesn't raise my blood pressure quite as often as the outgoing one did...

I hope that REALLY sticks in Dobson’s craw – though, I know it won’t. Sigh . . .
Good! I was amazed that there were those praying for rain…no, strike that…I wasn’t amazed at all. Sadly, I’ve come to expect it from them.
Meanwhile, Gustav is forecast to become a major hurricane and strike the New Orleans region on the second day of the Republican convention, but I’m not praying for it.
I’ve been tracking that storm for a couple of days now. I thought about adding it to my post about the Denver weather, but didn’t want to tempt the fates. New Orleans as been through enough already. Watching the Republicans party AGAIN while New Orleans drowns AGAIN is more than any of us can take.
