Welcome to Morning Open Thread, a daily post with a MOTley crew of hosts who chose the topic for the day's posting. We support our community, invite and share ideas, and encourage thoughtful, respectful dialogue in an open forum.
The diarist gets to sleep as long as she likes, and she can show up long after the post published — if at all! That is a feature, not a bug. Other than that, site rulz rule.
Join us, please.
From Billy Bragg, selections from the album Mermaid Avenue: The Complete Sessions. Lyrics by Woody Guthrie, set to music by Bragg and the band Wilco (Wikipedia)
