Whatta Week

What a holiday season. We've got earthquakes in Iran and California, mudslides in California (damn, that state is doomed), more troops dead in Iraq, more SARs in China, Mad Cow disease in the US, and Israel just locked down Gaza and the West Bank. Anyone up for some New Year's resolutions?

Polyticks
- Good news; the FIA has recommended the CIA and the White House share the burden of the false Niger Uranium claim. Now, what are the odds they both step up to the plate?
- Bad news; the same groups have new oversight powers. It's important that they know everything about you but don't question their actions.
- Spending is up..........just not so much with the average citizen.
- Mother Nature got a nice holiday gift from the administration.
- Krugman's rules for the 2004 election and how to report on it are not only wise, but desperately needed.

For those out there who seem to view the Hummer as the ultimate vehicle for soldiers, check out this article. Excerpt: "The Army's concern, Tallman said, is that unapproved steel-plating could somehow cripple the vehicles or cause them not to perform the way they were designed. For example, a Humvee armor kit recently tested at the Army's Aberdeen Proving Ground was so heavy that it caused the vehicle to break, he said."

On a Lighter Note
- When I was making out my xmas list.......I did not know there was a Britney Spears love doll. NSFW
- Those of us over six feet tall, disagree.
- Deliver us from Hannity.
- It certainly takes all kinds....but really folks.
- When you start messing with nature.......you get what you deserve.
- Time Waster one.
- Time Waster two.
