Welcome!

Welcome to our blog! Here you will find random (and hopefully interesting!) musings from one or both of us, pictures, and updates on what is going on in our life. Enjoy and visit often!

From yesterday's Wall Street Journal:

According to the 2004 General Social Survey, if you picked 100 unrelated politically liberal adults at random, you would find that they had, between them, 147 children. If you picked 100 conservatives, you would find 208 kids. That's a "fertility gap" of 41%. Given that about 80% of people with an identifiable party preference grow up to vote the same way as their parents, this gap translates into lots more little Republicans than little Democrats to vote in future elections.

Carolyn would be so proud. I remember her saying, about Democrats, "if you can't beat them, outbreed them." Looks like she can raise the victory flag.
