Reader feedbag

Interested readers ask, "What the hell?" or, with resignation admit, "I'm a little behind on the Beagle" as if they have missed something and owe it to the readership. This is called opinion data collected through stand up or sometimes sit down interviews. You would probably call them casual, sporatic conversations.

It has been widely reported that little has been seen or heard of the brash, linguistically entangled, yapping of the Beagletorials and the harrumphed up opinionations of the Beagletolerables or Beagleterribles. Perhaps some among us have not heard the election is over (although a usually reliable source says that Sarah Palin has already thrown her beauty crown into the ring).

Yappers have to talk about something, and every media commentator wakes up every morning with an toggle switch that reads "Obama's moving too fast" or "Obama's moving too slowly," and throw themselves into a lather accordingly. The Beagle doesn't care to draw any conclusions after 10 days.
