We Are Surrounded.

Salisbury, West Newbury and Newbury all have fallen to Brown. But she wins Port by a whisker.

I'm going with Coakley but you do what you gotta do.

Oh PKL continues to harass me, asking for a prediction on the race. Why? Local punditry is worthless. I'm the guy who came to believe those who told him he'd top the ticket for Charter Review Commission. Conventional wisdom suggests Coakley should win a Democratic-leaning community like this one, but Scott Brown has a local connection. Who knows what that's worth? Edge: Coakley

Welcome Back

To me and to you...


You'll see a new layout on the blog. New colors. New graphic. And a new arrangement of the blogs, sites and other sources of information on our fair city of Newburyport.


I decided I'd like this blog to be a bit more informational, a clearing house of Port-centric sites. If I'm missing anything essential please let me know.


I broke the sites into categories so they're easier to sort through. These may change as I find categories that make a bit more sense, but I'm feeling pretty good about the current set up.


I'll still opine as often as I can. I needed a few weeks off to catch my mental breath following the election, holidays and some serious work both at home and the office.
