- A rose, by any other name… “A Community Resource Network” (ACoRN) based out of Lebanon NH is a nonprofit HIV/AIDS and Hepatitis C support organization. Apparently there is another organization that uses that acronym. And that other organization has been getting bad national press. What are the odds?
Anyway, ACoRN (with the little “o”) is apparently getting grief from people confusing them with ACORN, and would like people to know that they are in no way connected.
- A belated shout out to Steve Benen, Vermont blogger extraordinaire, for being such a rock star. Take that Dobbs.
- Wow. Totten writes this and this. Colby writes this and this. Then Totten writes this (at the bottom). Man, that was fast.
- Speaking of Totten, today’s piece on all things Senatorial indicates that longtime Vermont Labor stalwart Ralph Montefusco might run for State Senate. Personally, I’d love to see that happen. Run Ralph, run!
- Speaking of Seven Days, Lauren Ober cracks me up.
- Yeah, that’ll work. In case you haven’t yet read on the sidebar, perennial Liberty Union 50th place candidate Boots Wardinski is boldly volunteering to save the Progressive Party from… er… David Zuckerman. For a preview of how well that’s gonna go over, click here.
- Speaking of the Zuckster, I don’t usually point people to official-institutional blogs like the Prog Blog, but the Burlington Representative has initiated a conversation over there about his consideration of a run on the Dem Primary ballot for Lite Guv. Interesting reading.
- Every now and then Mark Johnson emails me to let me know of something I missed on his show that I should hear or that might inform discussion on the site, as I usually dont have the opportunity to stream it. Or so I thought. I think the real reason I “forget” is those god-awful commercials for Montpelier coffee shop Capitol Grounds. Uhhhhhh… it haunts my dreams…..

and she rightly snaps a towel in your eye if you try to get sanctimonious with her.
I should note that there is an organization in Addison County called ACORN that is unconnected with either of the two mentioned. It concerns itself with energy efficiency and renewable energy issues.
…Glenn Beck’s comin’ after you next! How dare you spread acorns around?
And squirrels — watch your back. What’s up with storing up vast quantities of acorns like some kind of terrorist organization?
