Where to start?

OK, so here we are. President Obama has had the keys to the family minivan for just over a month now, and I cannot help but feel like I gave the keys to my teenage son instead and then realized that he had a fifth of whiskey in the front seat with him. I haven't blogged in quite some time, so i apologize in advance if my communication skills have gotten a bit rusty. Bear with me, this might be fun.
