I did it! (not again)

I guess I feel like I'm taking a plunge, getting a blog started! I'm not sure how much time I will have to write on here, although I do enjoy reading the rants and raves of all the other folks on here. I guess the political debates have spurred me on to get started. Particularly I enjoyed the wireless' letter to a school board trying to include creationism, excuse me, intellingent design as science curriculum. There was also another link to a new theory of a spaghetti monster that created the universe. Although not a blog, I found it through a blog and found it most amusing.

I am a big fan of the Daily Show and last night's episode gave me a good laugh when Jon Stewart came up with various quotes attempting to explain why the prez is loosing grounds in approval ratings. The winners: Americans (because we are genetically predisposed to want fast results), the media (because they are showing "around the clock" some of the destructions caused by the war), and Michael Jackson (because his trial has taken away media space to promote the prez). There was another one but I forget what it was. I love how he finds these quotes by congressmen, senators and the prez himself at their finest.

I spent last week-end with some friends who are quite silly and we had a great time reliving some of the best scenes from "Team America." I think my favorite is the opening scene where team america blasts Paris to save the French from terrorists. After destroying the city they talk lovingly to kids telling them that they are safe now while in the background there are burning buildings and dead bodies everywhere. That's how we clean up the world!
