Nothing to say...that really means anything. Here are a few random thoughts tumbling around the ole' bacon-eater:
1. I hate it when the MSM reports on 'consumer confidence' as a news story...primarily, for two reasons: 1. It's never good news....which leads me to this...2. If the MSM constantly reports that consumer confidence is falling....wouldn't consumer confidence...fall further? I mean, what would be the purpose of reporting...oh, yeah...
2. There's a big argument as to whether...'Tiger is that good', or 'does his competition lack that much'. I say...it doesn't matter. In fact, both are true. My guess is that if Tiger at his best(have we even seen it yet) played 'The Golden Bear' at his best....well, who knows...
3. I hate Tennessee. But I kinda like their basketball team.
4. Kosovo. No one wants to talk about it. Why? I have a guess...regardless, it's a big story.
5. Shooting that 'rogue' satellite down might be the coolest thing that has happened in a long, long time. In one fell swoop we proved Missile Defense capabilities...and took Brittany Spears out of the headlines.
6. Good friends with taste are invaluable. Testudineous just sent me some music, and in this veritable treasure trove of auditory pleasure is the voice of Ray LaMontagne. Seriously....a white Otis Redding...and I say that with all deference due Mr. Redding.
7. Diane Lane is still beautiful.
8. I took my oldest nephew to a movie this week. He's only eight...so, I had to find a movie that he could see...and that made me think...something as seemingly innocuous as going to the movies...and children still need to be protected...amazing. What have we come to...? But we had a good time. We saw National Treasure 2. He really didn't get the story...but he loved the adventure and visuals....and I think he dug hanging out with his uncle. That won't last long...
9. Anyone who knows me....and who would listen...knows that I've always said that Hillary Clinton is a weak candidate. She had to go to N.Y. to run for the Senate...because the more people see and hear her, the less they like her(NY became a natural habitat, because they don't like anyone). I completely disagree with Obama on every issue...except for maybe 'energy independence'...and would probably never vote for him...but I like him. Hillary is toast.
10. Here's a quote...let's see who can guess it first...if you are kin, you better get this: "I would like to direct this to the distinguished members of the panel: You lousy cork-soakers. You have violated my farging rights. Dis somanumbatching country was founded so that the liberties of common patriotic citizens like me could not be taken away by a bunch of fargin iceholes... like yourselves."
