It’s a new year, and I’m back and smarter than ever! Unfortunately, I didn’t read much news over the holiday, so I have some catching up to do. I see that Trent Lott stepped aside and now Frist will be the Majority Leader (he was, incidentally, first on my list), so has that finally gotten that distraction out of the news cycle? Also, it seems that poor, suicidal North Korea is begging to get blown up more than ever. I think we really need to bomb them just to enforce the fact that you can’t talk to America like that and not be made dead. Now, I assume that during my news black out we finally went and handled the Iraq problem… holy crap! It’s still there! What gives? And, apparently, Canada is flooding us with terrorists; now that’s a third country we’ll have to have war with. Can’t turn my back for a second…
