Welcome to the yard on the left. A place to contemplate, relax, and rant on the right.

It's the Great Penguin, Charlie Brown! Trick or Treaters at the LipsYard House were met by a giant Emperor, me. Most enjoyed the costume, except those who cried in terror. Bwaha ha ha!

Even Scarier for Sarah Palin and the McCain campaign, was the The Anchorage Daily News, Alaska's largest newspaper, endorsing Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama after declaring Gov. Sarah Palin "too risky" to be one step away from the Oval Office.

The newspaper said Obama "brings far more promise to the office. In a time of grave economic crisis, he displays thoughtful analysis, enlists wise counsel and operates with a cool, steady hand."

The Daily News said since the economic crisis has emerged, McCain has "stumbled and fumbled badly" in dealing with it.

"Of the two candidates, Sen. Obama better understands the mortgage meltdown's root causes and has the judgment and intelligence to shape a solution, as well as the leadership to rally the country behind it."

In a final blow, bound to trigger revenge from the hockey mom, the paper said few would argue that Palin is truly ready to step into the job of being president.
