Welcome to Buster's Blog

Irregular commentary on whatever's on my mind -- politics, sports, current events, and life in general. After twenty years of writing business and community newsletters, fifteen years of fantasy baseball newsletters, and two years of email "columns", this is, I suppose, the inevitable result: the awful conceit that someone might actually care to read what I have to say. Posts may be added often, rarely, or never again. As always, my mood and motivation are unpredictable.

Mandel Of Mystery


Josh Mandel is the Treasurer of Ohio. He was elected in November 2010 and has now served as Treasurer for 13 months. In truth, for the past 12 and a half months he has been running against Sherrod Brown for a U.S. Senate seat. This is pretty much his full-time occupation.

In his real job as state treasurer, he is the chairman of the Ohio Board of Deposit, which designates where all public money is deposited. The Deposit Board meets once a month, and Young Josh hasn't been to one yet. He's oh-for-thirteen.

Nice work if you can get it!
