Not in the clamor of the crowded street, not in the shouts and plaudits of the throng, but in ourselves, are triumph and defeat.--Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

REDIRECT ALERT! (Scroll down past this mess if you're trying to read an archived post. Thanks. No, really, thanks.)

Due to my inability to control my temper and complacently accept continued silliness with not-quite-as-reliable-as-it-ought-to-be Blogger/Blogspot, your beloved Possumblog will now waddle across the Information Dirt Road and park its prehensile tail at http://possumblog.mu.nu.

This site will remain in place as a backup in case Munuvia gets hit by a bus or something, but I don't think they have as much trouble with this as some places do. ::cough::blogspot::cough:: So click here and adjust your links. I apologize for the inconvenience, but it's one of those things.

Hey, I may be crazy, but I ain't stupid

Mental hospitals eyed to house state inmates
MONTGOMERY Gov. Bob Riley is considering the idea of closing one or more of the state's mental hospitals and using the facilities to house female convicts, he said Wednesday.

Riley said Kathy Sawyer, state commissioner of mental health and mental retardation, suggested a move to see whether bed spaces in nearly a dozen hospitals around the state can be consolidated so that one or more of them may be closed.

Riley said the state doesn't have the luxury of keeping open more mental hospitals than necessary. [...]
If only we didn't have the luxury of a Legislature. Somehow, though, they manage to survive quite well. Funny, huh?
