I’m back home for the Holiday. A few thoughts before I hit the hay:<\/p>\n

  • I am getting very close to putting an ax through the TV when i see more coverage of this Anna Nichole Smith business. Enough!<\/li>\n
  • I’m still convinced Iran is trying to provoke an attack to rally their people. The demonstration in Iran are, like those of thirty years ago, likely staged.<\/li>\n
  • I thought Boortz and Limbaugh could be bad. Then oday I was “treated” while driving to listening to Hannity and Savage. Hannity was debating Charlie Rangle on Iraq and kept focusing on “Hillary thought there were weapons of mass destruction!”. He doesn’t seem to have any time to address the mission creep that is getting our boys killed.<\/li>\n
  • Savage is annoying as hell but he made a decent point on Pelosi going to Syria, saying the President should have goaded her to repeat the party line — i.e, “Hey Syria! Behave yourself!”. I can’t say he’s right but it was a decent idea. Who the hell does Pelosi think she is anyway? Much as I have railed against the massive expansion of executive power under this President, there is one aspect of our government where he is supposed to have untrammelled power — diplomacy.<\/li>\n
  • Baseball season is back. Sweet. And I told you it would be a conservative Final Four. Boy, Buckeyes must really<\/em> hate Florida now. This is twice they’ve toppled mighty Ohio State from a consensus #1 ranking.<\/li>\n
  • It’s funny how you notice things. For 3.5 years, whenever I’ve had to use . . . dial-up . . . on my powerbook, I thought that little flashing dot on the modem icon was a heart. Now I see it’s a modem plug. What a goober.<\/li>\n
