Blogging in Very Busy Times

Since we are very pressed for time these days, we thought we'd save time by emulating "Sesame Street."

So, today's entry is brought to you by the letter "m," which is also the title of a classic early German film. M is the 13th letter of the English alphabet. It would be interesting to see Cong. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.), who is very conservative, and Cong. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), a progressive leader, engage in a spelling bee.

We are also brought  to you by the 6, which is the first prime number that is neither a square number nor a prime number.

We are also adding Millard Fillmore, from the Whig Party, who was the 13th president of the United States from 1850-1853.

And, our city of the day is Bursa, Turkey, the fourth largest city in Turkey which has a population of 1.7 million; it was the capital of the Ottoman Empire from 1326 to 1365.
