So I get the enviable job of deciding just how Sybil is going to entertain herself during her furlough.
And what a job. There have been some great suggestions. Everything from heavy drinking to adopting livestock.And I’m loknig forward to see what is suggested in subsequent week. But this week’s challenge will be:

…how’s about you just tell me who I’m going to be referring to as “The Man” for the next four years (at least)? CNN saw fit to debut this Star Wars-y hologram— where, really, via satellite would have done just fine — on election night.
