Skor Grimm doesn't want 500 channels. No, not at all. Rants like this are one reason I like Skor. You will also like Skor. You should read Skor, often.
The Portland Tribune offers a revealing profile of a homeless mom. Link via Portland blogger Jack Bogdanski, who TODAY is holding his second annual Buck-A-Hit charity fundraiser. For every visit to his site by midnight (as measured by SiteMeter), he and his wife will set aside one dollar, with the total to be divided among the Oregon Food Bank, the food pantry of St. Philip Neri Parish, and the Daybreak Shelter for homeless families. You should visit Jack's site anyway, so why not today? It's a fine mix of Portland-area and Oregon news and commentary. Jack's a tax law professor, so if so he happens to blog in his pajamas, I don't really care, OK?
Finally, Robert Hayes at Let's Try Freedom on Why Rumsfeld Should Stay.

Thanks for the link. By "every other" unique visit, I meant "every additional," meaning every single one. Come on over, folks.
