TMV is a bit sick tonight (although, routinely, some readers on both sides find him sickening.)
This blog may not be totally updated until tomorrow (TMV needs to jump into bed ASAP). Please keep checking back often since our always talented co-bloggers may have some things to say. Usually this site is dated EST for the next day with some posts that were done late in the day moved up. That may not happen until after 6 a.m. tomorrow.
So scroll down!
